Glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, the raw materials for connective tissue and the gut lining. No IBD trials; it's here as a well-tolerated protein source that dissolves in anything and gives the barrier what it's built from.

Bovine source. Unflavored is the one to buy, flavored versions carry sweeteners.

Andrew's notes

Collagen is a super protein source for people with IBD, very nutrient-dense and easy to tolerate, and it dissolves in a smoothie or a broth without changing the taste. It will not reduce inflammation much, and it is not a treatment for IBD; it is raw material for the connective tissue and the lining. I find it especially useful for people with Crohn's who have joint issues.
