This taste great and goes well with any beverage. I usually pour a scoop full (with the provided scoop) once a day, usually in the morning, to my fruit smoothie or just a glass of regular water in the middle of the day. The taste is sort of like a coffee creamer, so it's nothing drastically different-tasting than what most people usually drink.
After using this for 2 weeks, I'm almost out of the powder. I started seeing results about 5 days in. My forehead wrinkles seemed smoother, and my face seems clearer from breakouts. The eye bags under my eyes are less dark. The skin on the back of my hand is NOTICEABALLY smoother and hydrated as well! As for working out, I had this pain under my knee from running. It goes away with rest, but usually takes a week. While I was taking the collagen powder, I noticed the pain in my knee was going away a lot quicker (like next day!), and was staying away longer. I don't know if this was a coincidence, but that knee pain has plagued me for as long as I've been running after I turned 30. This is how I know my body is just not how it used to be after turning a certain age.
I'm 34 now, and I do make my own collagen from time-to-time. The effects are similar to this collagen powder (minus the knee pain). I honestly have always thought of going towards buying collagen powder instead because of the shelf-life and storage space, not to mention the convenience. This one is something I would definitely continue using from time-to-time. I just really love how it makes me feel afterwards: healthy and young.
