[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Collagen is not a complete protein and says right on the container it is NOT a source of dietary protein. Please don't give it to your kids thinking you are boosting their protein, you aren't. If you want to give them a protein boost, get a whey protein powder and mix it into pancakes, smoothies, etc. I like Tara's organic unflavored whey protein. [/quote] This. It is not a complete protein so is not a good choice with your goal. If they eat oatmeal, I take it off the burner and whisk in an egg per serving, and let it sit covered for a few minutes, or stir in nut butter, or both. An egg whisked into bone broth (think egg drop soup) is great for protein and collagen both and is a nice warm drink for fall/winter. [/quote]
