Beef/Bovine collagen is often linked to deforestation and a high carbon footprint from cattle farming due to the methane produced by cattle. The supply chain is not transparent, giving too much room for unethical and destructive practices. The ethical and environmental impacts of bovine do not make it the best choice of collagen when compared to some marine collagens that don’t use destructive practices such as bottom trawling.
