Want to improve your digestion? Want to heal your gut? Want tighter, smoother skin and stronger hair, nails, and bones? Gelatin can help! And today I am sharing 75 ways that you can more of this superfood into your diet.
A while back, I wrote about all of the amazing health benefits of gelatin. Here’s a quick recap, in case you missed it. Why gelatin rocks:
- Improves digestion and heals leaky gut
- Strengthens hair, nails, and bones

- Can help heal food allergies and intolerances

- Improves quality of sleep
- Helps with detoxification
- Helps with weight loss
I’ve been using gelatin as a real food supplement for some time now. My favorite way by far to get gelatin into my diet is to make my own homemade bone broth. It’s easy, cheap, and delicious. But if you do not have time to make your won broth, or just want to amp up the amount of gelatin you are consuming, there are 2 excellent gelatin supplements made from grass fed animals.
Regular Grass Fed Beef Gelatin
Regular gelatin is the gelatin you would use when you want something to “gel” like gelatin desserts and gummy snacks. It requires hot water to dissolve.
Collagen Peptide
Collagen peptide is the gelatin that I use in my smoothies and drinks. It has a smaller molecular structure so it will dissolve in cold liquids. It is completely flavorless and will not “gel.” I know folks who also add this to their daily coffee or tea.
I buy all of my gelatin online HERE. Vital Proteins is by far the cleanest and best grass fed gelatin and collagen source that I have found. All of their products are sourced from pasture raised bovine hides from Brazil to ensure a natural, high quality, and sustainable product. It has more protein and amino acids per serving than other brands. I also find the collagen peptides to be smoother and less grainy then other brands. I also like the packaging. It comes in non-BPA, air-tight canisters, preventing moisture with it’s own little scooper.

Much of what I know about gelatin comes from a book my friend, Sylvie from Hollywood Homestead, wrote called The Gelatin Secret. It’s hands down the most comprehensive book on gelatin, its benefits, its usage, and simple ways to include it in your diet. She explains in great detail all of the health benefits that I mentioned above. She also shares how she has used gelatin to transform her health and her life. She includes lots of easy recipes. Check out her book HERE.
