Dairy Products
Dairy products are consumed daily. The dairy industry has seen tremendous growth as the consumption of dairy products like milk, curd, buttermilk, cheese and others has gone up. Fortified dairy products regulate the nutrition levels of the population owing to their widespread demand and consumption. These products are usually fortified with iron, vitamins and minerals. We can also choose from low fat to full fat options as the dairy industry controls the fat concentration in the milk supplied. Casein is the protein found in milk. The amino acid profile of casein and collagen is different and hence adding collagen to milk will only increase its nutritional value. IKIGEN Fish collagen is a pure hydrolyzed protein and hence it is completely safe to add collagen to milk and milk products.
