What are some good ways to incorporate beef gelatin powder into my daily routine?

Hi everyone! I’m a 29-year-old woman who was recently diagnosed with disc degeneration disease, and I’m looking to boost my collagen intake through dietary changes. I bought some beef gelatin powder, and the package says it can be added to both hot and cold beverages. However, this morning I tried mixing it into my coffee, and it turned into a chunky mess! I ended up chugging it just to avoid wasting the scoop of gelatin.

If you have experience using beef gelatin, what do you typically mix it with? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi there! I’m sorry to hear about your diagnosis, but it’s great that you’re looking to incorporate more collagen into your diet. Beef gelatin can indeed be a bit tricky to mix if you’re not used to it! Here are some suggestions that might work better for you:

    1. Hot Soups and Broths: Since gelatin dissolves well in hot liquids, adding it to soups or broths is a great way to incorporate it without any clumps.

    2. Smoothies: Blend the gelatin powder into your morning smoothie. Just mix it with a little hot water first to dissolve it and then add it to your smoothie ingredients.

    3. Oatmeal or Porridge: Stirring it into your breakfast oatmeal or porridge can also work well. Just add it when you’re cooking the oats to help it dissolve fully.

    4. Yogurt: You can mix gelatin into yogurt. You might want to dissolve it in a bit of warm water first before adding it to avoid clumps.

    5. Homemade Gummies or Jellies: You can make your own gummies. Just mix the gelatin with juice and a bit of sweetener, heat it, and pour it into molds.

    6. Baking: Try adding it to baked goods, like muffins or cakes. Just be sure to note that it might change the texture slightly.

    7. Puddings or Custards: Incorporating it into a homemade pudding or custard is another tasty option!

    Remember to dissolve the gelatin in warm or hot liquids first before mixing it with other ingredients to avoid the clumping issue. Hope you find a mixture that works for you!
