NeoCell, Marine Collagen Peptides + Hyaluronic Acid, Unflavored, 7 oz (200 g)
The Supplement Facts panel lists 12 g of marine collagen peptides from tilapia and carp plus 15 mg vitamin C. Its collagen dose is close to the 10 g amount used in general collagen-hydrolysate trials, but the label does not identify a joint-specific type II or branded joint peptide. A 3 g beauty blend combines resistant maltodextrin, hyaluronic acid and MSM without separate amounts.

Our Verdict
The 12 g dose and added vitamin C are clear strengths, but the label does not state collagen type, hides the hyaluronic-acid and MSM amounts, and provides no recognized certification evidence. Those weaknesses on heavier-weighted criteria place it fifth.

Alternatives to Consider
Sports Research, Collagen Peptides, Unflavored, 16 oz (454 g)
Sports Research
The label provides 11 g of hydrolyzed bovine collagen peptides, identified as types I and III, per scoop and about 41 servings. That serving closely matches the 10 g daily amount used in published human trials of collagen hydrolysate; this is a dose comparison, not evidence that this retail product was studied. The product is listed by Informed Choice and contains no additional active blend.
BUBS Naturals, Collagen Peptides, Unflavored, 10 oz (283 g)
BUBS Naturals
Each scoop supplies 20 g of hydrolyzed bovine types I and III collagen peptides, with about 14 servings per container. NSF Certified for Sport lists the 283 g and 567 g unflavored powder with a 20 g serving. The serving exceeds the 10 g amount used in cited hydrolyzed-collagen trials, but a larger dose is not automatically more informative or more effective.
NOW Foods, UC-II Joint Health with Undenatured Type II Collagen, 60 Capsules
NOW Foods
One capsule contains 40 mg of UC-II standardized chicken cartilage, providing 10 mg total collagen including undenatured type II collagen, plus Aquamin and calcium. Published UC-II human trials used 40 mg of UC-II material daily, so the labeled serving matches that ingredient dose. This is a low-milligram native form and should not be compared gram-for-gram with hydrolyzed peptide powders.
Jigsaw Health, Collagen Boost, Unflavored, 21 oz (595 g)
Jigsaw Health
Two scoops provide 17.5 g of a hydrolyzed bovine collagen complex made from FORTIGEL, FORTIBONE and VERISOL, plus 80 mg hyaluronic acid. Human FORTIGEL trials used 5 g daily, but the label combines three branded peptides without disclosing each amount, so its FORTIGEL dose cannot be matched to that benchmark. The container provides 30 servings at $2.33 each.
