I’ve been taking Nutraviva Marine Collagen for several years, the quality of my skin is that of a much younger person. At my age its common to experience aching joints, bones and this is not my experience, I have zero aches or pains in joints or bones. I love the quality of my hair, skin, nails, gut health, bone quality and overall well being and feel confident the marine collagen is part of the reason why.
Hi Lee-Ann,
Thank you for your amazing feedback! We're so glad to hear that Nutraviva Marine Collagen has made such a positive difference in your skin, joints, and overall wellbeing. It’s fantastic to know you’re feeling vibrant and pain-free - that’s exactly what we aim for!
We truly appreciate your continued support and love having you as part of the Nutraviva community.
I started adding about 1 tsp Marine Collagen to my daily routine of taking 2 tsp Aust Collagen Hydrolysate a couple of months ago. I’m unsure about the specific benefits of each type of collagen but the overall benefits are clear — strong nails, pain-free joints and good hair growth. My skin probably benefits also. I'm in my late 60s and have had trouble with brittle nails and joint pain for short periods - but only when I run out of collagen! I’d be very interested to know more about the specific benefits of marine collagen vs beef collagen if there is good science available.
PS I've been adding Creatine to the medicine-mix lately.
Hi Keri,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review of our products detailing your product experience.
Key Differences at a Glance
*Source:
Bovine collagen - Our options (Collagen Hydrolysate & Australian Collagen Hydrolysate) come from grass-fed cattle. Types I and III
Marine collagen - Our Marine Collagen is sourced from wild-caught fish, so it is naturally organic. It is sustainably sourced. Type I
*Peptide Size & Absorption:
Marine collagen has a marginally smaller peptide size. This is one reason it’s often featured in beauty-focused formulas.
*Preference & Dietary Fit:
Marine collagen is ideal for those following a non-bovine or pescatarian lifestyle, while bovine collagen is a great all-rounder and affordable option for skin, joint, gut, and general wellbeing support. So it really comes down to preference and dietary fit.
*Price Point:
Marine collagen tends to sit at a higher price tier, reflecting its sourcing.
The good news? Both types support healthy skin, nails, hair, joints, and connective tissues. Our collagen powders are hydrolysed for bioavailability and are 100% natural with no fillers or additives.
The choice ultimately comes down to dietary preferences and budget. As mentioned, here is a slightly smaller peptide size for Marine Collagen, but this is quite slight in terms of bioavailability. There are quite a few customers who choose to use both, either at the same time or interchangeably. Either is perfectly fine.
I have sent you an email detailing this and some more information about about collagen types also.
PS. Creatine sounds like a great addition to your supplement regime. There are great benefits to using this supplement for muscle maintenence, cellular hydration & protection, plus supporting bone health and cognition.
From the time I started taking it, I have felt a slight approvement immediately. Will continue to use the product

We’ve been using this for around 6 months and are very happy with how easily it dissolves and the fact that the flavour is almost negligible.

I have been using the bone broth for quite some time & love it. I add it to my gravies, stews etc & even use it as a bone broth drink for an extra boost. Great taste.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so happy to hear how much you’re loving the bone broth and how versatile it’s been in your cooking and daily routine. It’s great to know you're enjoying both the flavour and the benefits!
Still a high quality product but I prefer the taste of their regular Collagen Hydrolysate.
Great taste! Makes a lovely warm afternoon tea treat & keeps you from getting hungry before dinner!
Great to finally finding a Halal-certified bone broth. I thought it might have a strong taste but it doesn't.
great product, no taste, dissolves quite well in hot drink.
Absolutely love this collagen. Even more so love the communication and transparency from the company. Great product, great company. 10/10
