Here's a great way to use Vital Proteins gelatin to make Elderberry Gummies; perfect for on-the-go or a fun way to get the kids to supplement with elderberry.

Added bonus of our recipe: Includes gelatin and probiotics!

We get asked A LOT about the benefits of gelatin... here are just a few:

 
contains glycine
  • Glycine is great for digestion and overall gut health. Gelatin is beneficial for preventing intestinal damage and improves the lining of the digestive tract and helps to prevent leaky gut syndrome (increased permeability).
  • Glycine helps to restore the mucosal lining in the stomach and facilitates the balance of digestive enzymes and stomach acid. (Note: If you don't produce enough stomach acid, you are likely experiencing digestive problems, nutrient deficiencies, acid reflux, bloating, indigestion, or anemia).
  • Studies show that glycine appears to improve sleep quality, lift mood, and improve cognitive function.
  • Glycine is considered an inhibitory neurotransmitter and acts similarly to some anti-anxiety and antidepressant medications. Glycine also boosts GABA (our happy hormones) and lowers norepinephrine (our stress hormones).

improves skin health
  • Works to help renew skin cells and may also protect you from free radical damage.

maintains strong bones
  • Gelatin is rich in nutrients including magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, silicon, and sulfur, all of which help to form bones, prevent fractures or bone loss, and heal bone(s).
