This is a far better value than Vital Proteins. With this Codeage product you only use one scoop, it will last you a couple months. Vital Proteins requires 3 scoops per serving now. I stopped buying Vital Proteins because it was not a good value for one and second, I feel and see results with Codeage products. They are easy to use, no digestive issues for me, and dissolves well in my coffee, no taste or aftertaste so this product is the best on the market in my opinion according to the ingredients and size of the container. I recycle so packaging is never an issue. It has a screw off lid and a scoop, inside, Vital proteins does not. My VP package fell off the shelf and spilled everywhere because you can not close it securely, with Codeage containers, you can feel secure if you drop it or tip it over accidentally, with the lid closed. I love the results and packaging and value. If that ever changes, I will move on ,because I work hard for my money dollars. Thank you Codeage for this fine product.
