When collagen is cooked, we call it gelatin. One of the gelatin products we are most familiar with is the commercial food product ‘jello’. Gelatin gives jello its firm structure and jiggly consistency. However, store bought jello products also contain large amounts of additives like food dye, stabilizers, and refined sugars. Store bought ‘jello’ gelatin also comes from factory raised animals that are fed a nutrient-poor diet. Therefore, there aren’t any real health benefits to consuming store bought jello products.
