What do the vitamins in Gelagen do?
Vitamin A: 630 mcg (70% DV)
Vitamin A helps with vision, the immune system and normal cell growth, including skin cells (NIH ODS). Gelagen uses retinyl acetate, a preformed type. The upper limit for adults is 3,000 mcg a day, and pregnant women should be careful with preformed vitamin A.
Vitamin C: 20 mg (22% DV)
Vitamin C is an antioxidant. The body needs it to make collagen, the protein that gives skin its structure (NIH ODS). The adult RDA is 75 to 90 mg, so 20 mg is a modest amount.
Vitamin D: 10 mcg (50% DV)
Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium and supports bones, muscles and the immune system (NIH ODS). The adult upper limit is 100 mcg, well above this dose.
Vitamin E: 7.4 mg (49% DV)
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage (NIH ODS). Large doses can raise bleeding risk with blood thinners. The amount here is modest.
Vitamin B6: 2 mg (118% DV)
Vitamin B6 helps the body use protein and takes part in many enzyme reactions. One serving covers a little more than the full Daily Value.
Folate: 442 mcg DFE (111% DV)
Folate helps the body make DNA and new cells (NIH ODS). High folate intake can hide a vitamin B12 shortage, which is one reason Gelagen pairs it with B12.
Vitamin B12: 6 mcg (250% DV)
Vitamin B12 helps keep nerve and blood cells healthy. Gelagen uses methylcobalamin, one of the active forms.
Biotin: 5,000 mcg (16,667% DV)
Biotin helps the body turn food into energy (NIH ODS). It is often linked with hair and nails. Research shows it helps people who are low in biotin, but proof for healthy people is limited (Patel et al., 2017).
Pantothenic acid: 5.2 mg (104% DV)
Pantothenic acid, also called vitamin B5, helps the body make energy from food. One serving covers about the full Daily Value.
What do the minerals and extras in Gelagen do?
Which foods give you the same nutrients as Gelagen?
Every nutrient in Gelagen also comes from food. A gummy adds to your diet; it does not replace it.
Biotin and vitamin E foods
Eggs, walnuts, almonds and seeds all add biotin. Almonds and sunflower seeds are also rich in vitamin E.
Carrots bring beta-carotene, which the body can turn into vitamin A.
Folate and vitamin C foods
Spinach, peas, broccoli, avocado and chickpeas are good folate foods. Oranges and other citrus fruits are known for vitamin C.
A plate like this can give you more vitamin C than one serving of Gelagen.
Where is the Gelagen formula strong, and where is it light?

Gelagen ingredients FAQ
Does Gelagen contain collagen?
No collagen is listed on the Gelagen panel. The formula has vitamin C and zinc, two nutrients your body uses to make its own collagen.
Why is the biotin amount so high?
The label lists 5,000 mcg of biotin, which is 16,667% of the 30 mcg Daily Value. No upper limit is set for biotin, but high doses can throw off some lab tests. Tell your doctor and lab you take it.
What are the inactive ingredients in Gelagen?
Inactive ingredients, sugar per serving and allergens are not published. The back-panel image was not supplied, so check the bottle you receive.
Is the vitamin A in Gelagen safe during pregnancy?
Gelagen uses preformed vitamin A (retinyl acetate) at 630 mcg. Too much preformed vitamin A can harm a baby, so talk to your doctor before use if you are pregnant or may become pregnant.
What does 'Korean Technology' mean on the label?
The label prints the phrase, but what it refers to is not published. It does not change the ingredient amounts on the panel.
Which Gelagen ingredients are the weakest?
Choline at 0.04 mg and inositol at 40 mcg are trace amounts. They sit far below the amounts used in research, so they add little to the formula.
