Fine Collagen Powder vs Meiji Collagen Powder

I'm currently taking Fine collagen powder even though I still have half a can of Meiji collagen powder left. This is the only time I will have two different kinds of collagen powder on hand at the same time so I've decided to do a comparison post between the two.

So both are popular collagen powders from Japan. With Meiji, each spoonful of collagen powder provides you with 5000mg of collagen which is enough for daily consumption. With Fine collagen, each spoonful provides you with 5250 mg of collagen. For me, I take 2 spoonfuls a day if I'm taking powdered collagen.

the packaging is different. I expect this to be different from the Japanese package as the Fine collagen is sold under's the name Japanese Secret.  I personally prefer the packaging of Meiji over the Fine Collagen. For Meiji, I don't have to open the lid completely.

From the powders, you can tell that the Fine powder is much finer than the Meiji one making it easier to dissolve than the Meiji one. I would say the Meiji collagen powder is on a grainier side than the Fine powder. If you dissolve it in hot beverage, you won't have a problem dissolving it. But if you dissolve it in cold juice, I find it quite hard for the Meiji collagen powder to dissolve completely. 

For the taste, I would say the Fine collagen powder is a much better choice. It tastes like vanilla, so I enjoy added it to my soy milk or coffee in the morning. It tastes awesome. But for the Meiji one, it has a fishy taste, I can only add it to my coffee or soup to cover up the fishy taste. 

Are you currently taking any collagen supplements?

  2. BEST COLLAGEN SUPPLEMENTCollagen is a protein which is the most abundant compound in your bodyIt not only forms
    connective tissues throughout your body but is also responsible for the construction of your bones and skin too Your body naturally produces collagen every
    INTERNAL SKINCAREday. But over time, that production slows down. “There is an enzyme in our
    skin called collagenase, which breaks down collagen,” says Debra Julian, MD, author of “Skin Rules: Trade Secrets from a Top New York Dermatologist.”
    “After the age of 25, we break down more collagen than we make, so that’s why we start to see fine lines and wrinkles,” she says. You can add more to your
    routine by consistently expending nourishments like bone broth and organ meats. On the off chance that these nourishments aren't in your standard turn,
