Caroline,

I'm very sorry if I wasn't clear...

My concern in the post that I replied to earlier is that someone would be getting 30% of their daily intake of protein from hydrolized gelatin.

Obviously I've not "worked" with Gelatin as I've written already that the whole concept is not for me.

I'm very aware of the recent fads for bone broths etc., however it concerns me that people don't know exactly what they're consuming despite the great name of "Great Lakes Gelatin" which acts as a calming influence for people in the USA thinking it's sourced locally perhaps? More likely the great lakes of Patagonia.

I also have read, for my own interest, many abstracts in PubMed since you alerted me to this product and most of them were specifically regarding malnutrition or protein undernutrition.

Consuming 30% of the daily intake of protein from gelatin produced in the way described on their site is definitely something I could not do.
