Unless you have a routine down pat and lead a very predictable life, it can be tricky to make sure you’re eating healthy and following healthy habits. Work lunches, happy hours, take-out meals, fancy dinners at new restaurants, and even candy bowls sitting at the receptionist desk can throw off the even best of us.
These days, I’ve been trying to keep my morning routine simple and make sure I get a little relaxation time, too. Instead of gulping down my hot coffee and rushing out the door, I have been taking a few minutes to drink my coffee and eat breakfast before I head to the office.
Over the years, I’ve gone from drinking whole milk, to 2% milk, to almond milk, to no milk at all in my coffee. Part of the reason for doing this was due to the calories and sugar that come with milk. Also, I’ve always liked black coffee, so I didn’t really have an issue cutting out milk. When I count macros (something that I do on/off), I try to make sure I get the best bang for my buck.
However, when you just drink plain black coffee, you miss out on nutrition! Plain black coffee fits macros and is zero calories, but it’s also important to make sure what we eat is fueling our bodies. And it’s very important to make sure we’re fueling ourselves before we head out the door.
That’s where Keto Collagen comes in. After trying it, saying that I love it is an understatement. I’m not on any diet right now, and definitely not on a ketogenic diet. But, that doesn’t mean I can’t benefit from adding Keto Collagen to my morning coffee!
Three reasons why I love Keto Collagen
When I first looked at the nutrition label for Keto Collagen, I was taken aback. Just, completely surprised. First of all, there are only two ingredients on the list. Yup, only two. Second of all, it’s only 90 calories per scoop/serving. Third, its only 3g fat and 15g protein. Many of us actually do not get the recommended daily amount of protein every day. High-protein macro counters know how hard it can be to get in all that protein in one day, so Keto Collagen is a lifesaver.
How does Keto Collagen taste?
Honestly, everything I listed above made Keto Collagen sound too good to be true. And I was a little reluctant to try it because I didn’t know what to expect when it came to taste.
I am very happy to report that there is actually no noticeable taste at all. That means you can add it to just about any drink you want, hot or cold, and you won’t taste the difference.
How do you use Keto Collagen?
Simply add a scoop to any drink, hot or cold, or even just plain water. Stir and drink! You can even add it to food! I want to try adding it to oatmeal one of these days.
In terms of texture, it mixes pretty well. Given that I mix it in with coffee, it takes a minute to make sure all the powder is dissolved. However, if I drink my morning coffee out of a larger mug, I’ll have no problems at all.
According to the packaging, you can drink Keto Collagen anywhere from 1-3 times a day. Once a day works if you’re casually reaping the benefits of the Keto Collagen. If you’re using it as part of a fitness or diet plan, you can use it 2-3 times per day.
What kind of diets does Keto Collagen work for?
Just about any diet you can think of! Except, if you are vegetarian or vegan, or on a diet that prohibits animal products. One of the ingredients is hydrolyzed bovine collagen peptides.
