So, what is â°gelatin?

Gelatin is a versatile food ingredient that is derived from the collagen found in animal bones, connective tissues, and skin. It is commonly used in the food industry to thicken or stabilize various products such as jellies, puddings, and candies. Gelatin is also frequently used in the production of capsules for medicine and supplements. This ingredient has no flavor and is odorless, making it perfect for adding texture to foods without altering their taste. Additionally, gelatin is a good source of protein and contains essential amino acids that are necessary for maintaining healthy skin, hair, and nails.
