Collagen+ is made with SOLUGEL® certified grass-fed collagen peptides, meaning the cattle:

  • Are raised outdoors on pasture or range 365 days per year, with free access to fresh grass, air, land, and water.
  • Are free-range, spending 100% of their lifetime on grass and pasture.
  • Are free from hormones, antibiotics, and anabolic steroids—industrial balanced feeds are not allowed.
  • Come from fully traceable farms, with each lot backed by official origin certificates.

All of this is verified by LIAF Control SRL, a member of the American Grassfed Association—not just claimed on a label.

What Is SOLUGEL® Certification?

The SOLUGEL® grass-fed standard covers how the cattle live, what they eat, and how traceable the supply chain is. To qualify, farms must meet all of the following:

  • Healthy diet. Cattle are free from hormones, antibiotics, and anabolic steroids, and industrial balanced feeds are not allowed. Their diet is based on grass and forage rather than grain-heavy industrial feed.
  • Free-Range, Pasture-Based. Cattle are raised outdoors on pasture or range 365 days per year, with free access to fresh grass, air, land, and water, and they spend 100% of their lifetime on grass and pasture.
  • Full Traceability. The raw materials are fully traceable back to farms in Latin America, and every production lot comes with official origin certificates documenting where it came from.
  • Veterinary Care. Cattle are continually subject to official veterinary supervision and medical care, which helps safeguard their health and welfare.
  • Third-Party Certified Grass-Fed. The entire sourcing and production process for grass-fed SOLUGEL® collagen peptides is certified by LIAF Control SRL, a member of the American Grassfed Association.

Why Does Grass-Fed Certification Matter?

In the U.S., “grass-fed” has no legal definition for dairy. The FDA doesn’t regulate the term. 

That means a cow can spend most of its life eating grain, graze occasionally, and still produce milk marketed as “grass-fed”—or even “100% grass-fed.”

This isn’t a technicality. It’s standard practice.

In New Zealand—a country that built its dairy reputation on grass-fed imagery—the largest dairy co-op labeled its products “100% grass-fed” while allowing up to 20% of the cows’ diet to come from grain or supplemental feed. They only dropped the claim after legal action from Greenpeace.

The supplement industry is worse. 

Many brands slap “grass-fed” on their whey with no sourcing details, no third-party verification, and no information about pasture time or feed composition. Your only option is to trust them.

We don’t ask you to trust us. We prove it.

Collagen+ is made with SOLUGEL® certified grass-fed collagen peptides from cattle that are raised outdoors on pasture or range all year, with free access to grass and space.

The raw materials are fully traceable back to the farms, with each lot carrying official origin certificates, and the entire sourcing and production process is certified by LIAF Control SRL, a member of the American Grassfed Association.

Every batch of grass-fed collagen we use in Collagen+ is documented and certified. The standard is clear, and there’s a paper trail.

Without third-party certification, you’re relying on the honor system. That’s what the seals on your Collagen+ label mean:

You don’t have to trust us. You can verify.

The Bottom Line on Grass-Fed Collagen

In the supplement industry, if a brand asks you to “just trust us bro,” don’t.

When you see “certified grass-fed” on Collagen+, it’s there because there’s a standard, an auditor, and a paper trail behind it—not because our designer thought it looked nice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is grass-fed beef more nutritious?

Yes—grass-fed beef generally contains more omega-3s, CLA, and certain vitamins than conventional beef, because pasture-based diets produce different fat profiles in the meat. 

But Collagen+ is made from hydrolyzed collagen peptides, which are mostly pure protein with very little fat.

That means the direct nutritional difference in your scoop is real but modest.

What you’re actually paying for: better farms, cleaner supply chains, and real oversight—not fantasy macros.

Why bother with certified grass-fed if the nutrition difference is modest? 

Because it’s a better way to raise animals and a cleaner way to run a supply chain. 

For us, “grass-fed” isn’t a halo word—it’s one more place where we can prove that what’s on the label lines up with what happens on the farm.
