What is the little packet inside the Organic Collagen Peptides packaging?

You may notice a small packet inside your bag of Organic Collagen Peptides. This is a silica gel packet, and it is included to help protect the product from moisture.

What does the silica gel packet do?

Silica gel absorbs moisture and helps keep the collagen powder dry during storage and shipping. Excess moisture can cause powdered collagen to clump.

The packet is not an ingredient and should not be opened or mixed into the collagen.

Is silica gel toxic?

Silica gel itself is not considered toxic when swallowed. However, the packet should not be eaten and can present a choking hazard, particularly for young children.

If the packet is accidentally swallowed, contact a medical professional or poison control center for guidance, especially if a child swallows the packet or is experiencing symptoms.

Can I remove the packet?

Yes. You can safely remove and discard the silica gel packet if you prefer. If you leave it in the bag, keep the package tightly sealed and store it in a cool, dry place.

In short: The little packet is silica gel. It helps absorb moisture and keep your Organic Collagen Peptides dry—it is not part of the product itself.
