This collagen product is in powder form and is made from low molecular fish collagen which is more easily absorbed than collagen taken from pigs. Meiji Amino Collagen also has arginine, an amino acid great for skin, glucosamine, and vitamin C.
I personally use this product and have been doing so for the last two years. I wouldn’t sell this if I didn’t believe in it.
Why is Meiji Amino Collagen such a great product?
Gives great skin. Although this collagen product does not remove wrinkles, it does make your skin more supple and youthful-looking after a few months of consistent consumption.
Low-fat. Since this product is low in calories, it should not interfere if you are on a diet.
Safe. If taken according to instructions, 5,000mg or one Meiji spoonful (provided in the tin) daily, Meiji Amino Collagen is a safe supplement. Before you try any new health product, do consult your doctor if you have any concerns, particularly if you have kidney problems.
Almost tasteless. Meiji Amino Collagen is almost without any flavour so it can be taken with sweet or savoury liquids, for example, yoghurt, juice, soup, or even pasta sauce. But my preferred choice is grapefruit or cranberry juice as they taste good. Meiji Amino Collagen does not change even if you heat it up so you can consume it in hot drinks.

May I know if this product is safe for pregnant woman?
By Amelia on 01.29.09 12:47 pm | Permalink
The product doesn’t say whether it is safe for pregnant women or not. It’s better to consult your physician on this.

Hi there,
I was just wondering what’s the difference between Amino Collagen and the Amino Collagen Premium. Thanks!
By Shi on 02.08.09 8:02 am | Permalink
i just wanna ask if this product is safe fot brestfeeding mom..
By christine on 02.08.09 8:35 am | Permalink
Shi: Meiji Amino Collagen Premium is an upgraded version of the original Meiji Amino Collagen. Besides fish collagen, it also has Coenzyme Q10 (for anti-oxidant power) and Hyaluronic Acid (hydrating essence) as extra anti-aging agents to be absorbed by the skin.

Christine: We would caution pregnant and nursing women to check with their doctors on the safety of taking this product.
This is the list of ingredients:
1 serving (7g = 0.25oz)
Energy 27kcal
Sodium 15mg
Protein 5.3g
Vitamin C 50mg
Fat 0.08g
Arginine (amino acid) 450mg
Carbohydrates 1.3g
Fish peptide collagen 5,000mg
Glucosamine 60mg
If you are uncertain, it’s always better to err on the side of caution.

Thanks Yuming! Since the Premium is an upgraded version, is it for slightly older people? I am in my late 20s. Would I be too young for the Premium or is the original formula sufficient for me?
Thanks!
By Shi on 02.08.09 10:49 am | Permalink
Shi: There is no harm starting early on the Premium which has extra anti-aging ingredients.At the end of the day, I think it really depends on what you think your skin needs because everyone’s different.
I started out with the regular one in my late-20s

Yikes!-I watched the show and that is how I heard about the Meiji Amino Collagen and now I’m looking around the internet for some (I guess every one else is too) but I was looking for some just the night that the show was on and I was finding prices MUCH lower then what is now the price. In Japan they are paying a measly 230yen (about $2.00) for this amazing product, now since it’s been on Oprah everybody is boosting thier prices! going from a really decent price of $2.00 to whopping $35.00!? Come on guys thats R I D I C U L O U S … And here I thought I was going to caught a break, what a fool I was.

Hi T,
Sorry I think you are mistaken that it is that cheap 230JPY for a tin. With that amount of money, you can only get a small bottle of ready-made collagen drink. That’s one dose.
$35 gets you one whole months’ supply which I think most people would perceive as very reasonable. Slightly a dollar more a day for a dose of collagen. Now that’s cheaper than a single bottle of collagen drink.

amino collagen is really good for the skin!
By aki on 04.13.09 8:38 pm | Permalink
I’m interested in your ingredient list. Where does the energy and carbohydrate come from? The list you posted looks more like supplement facts than a list of ingredients. I’m looking for a collagen product with no sugar or flavor added, just the collagen and maybe glucosamine and arganine. Is the salt also an added ingredient?
By deborah on 08.17.09 10:49 pm | Permalink
Hi Deborah, what I listed is indeed the ingredients list. This product has no sugar per say but there is a small amt of carbohydrates and flavoring. And yes, sodium is part of the product.
If these ingredients make you uncomfortable then we would best advise you to not take this.

Last month I purchased 2 meiji amino collagen since you’re offer a good deal for it. However you should say that it was on sale because the expiration date was coming close, btw…VERY close (06/03/2010). By June the two cans will expire, what am I suppose to do? Does Japan know that you’re selling their products in a such way?
By Silvia Matsuda on 05.10.10 1:08 pm | Permalink
Che: I don’t think this product affects fertility but you should check with your doctor if it’s suitable to take if you are trying to conceive. And if you don’t take this supplement regularly, you may not see the best results.
Silvia: I’m sorry you felt this way but it was very clearly stated in the title of the page on Amazon and my webstore that the expiry date was June 2010.

Hi , when is the best time to consume this product? morning or night time?
By hellen on 05.13.10 7:40 am | Permalink
Night time is recommended but I think anytime of the day is fine, to be honest.

I’m sorry but we don’t send our products to Saudi Arabia. You could use Aramax in the US to give you a US address so that you can order from merchants who only sell in the US.
