HealthChek Gelatin 500g Pouch

500g resealable pouch of HealthCHEK Gelatin (setting type)

Collagen Hydrolysate is a premium product with 20 different amino acids which may aid the healing and repair of connective tissue. The collagen is sourced from pasture-raised and grass-fed cattle raised in Argentina and Brazil, and is packaged in the UK, meeting with all EU regulations and requirements.

Unflavoured Beef Gelatin is made of one simple ingredient providing a pure protein dietary supplement. It will dissolve in hot liquids, and it will thicken cold liquids, making it great for making jellies and gummy sweets. It is also nearly tasteless, colourless and odourless. 

Both HealthChek Collagen and Gelatin are sourced from cattle in Argentina and Brazil. They are pasture-raised, kosher, and grass-fed based on the standards of the American Grassfed Association and animal welfare guidelines.

How do I choose between collagen and gelatin? 

The gelatin and collagen hydrolysate are both made from the same beef hides, but the gelatin is not broken down as much. That's why it will gel when mixed with water and chilled. It does not mix well with cold water, only hot liquids. So, if you want to make gummies or jellies, then get the gelatin. If you just want something to mix in with your coffee or cold drinks, then get the collagen hydrolysate. 

Two of the most desirable properties of gelatin is the melt-in-the mouth characteristic, and its ability to form thermo-reversible gels. Some of the best culinary uses include: 

Gel Forming: Gelled Desserts, Confectionery, Paté.

Whipping Agent : Marshmallows, Nougats, Mousses, Soufflé.

Protective Colloid: Confectionery, Icings, Ice cream, Frozen Desserts and Confections.

Binding Agent: Meat Rolls, Canned Meats, Confectionery, Cheeses, Dairy Products.

HealthChek Unflavoured Beef Gelatin is forage-based, which eliminates the potential use of growth hormones, antibiotics, and steroids.
