The present invention concerns a beverage having water and a concentration range of about.001 grams per liter to 8.44 grams per liter of collagen, wherein the collagen is hydrolyzed. The collagen concentration range may be between 1 milligram per liter to about 8440 milligram per liter or 1 parts per million to about 8440 parts per million. The hydrolyzed collagen has collagen peptides. The collagen peptides are produced through hydrolysis of a plurality of collagen sources. The plurality of collagen sources are derived from at least one of animal raw materials, animals raised in non-organic or organic farms, animals from various animal species and various parts of the animal carcass. The water may be comprised of at least one of tap water, spring or mineral water, and iceberg or glacier water. |
