Collagen-Based Energy Gels

Built Brands' BuiltGO Does the Job of an Energy Drink and More

BuiltGO by Built Brands is a collagen-based protein and energy gel that has the potential to keep endurance athletes going or even provide a helpful boost to the average person who needs a pick-me-up in the afternoon. The compact energy gel does the job of several products, as it serves as an energy drink, a pre-workout shake and a protein shake all in one.

The protein and energy gel is available in a range of flavors, including peanut butter honey, chocolate coconut and chocolate mint. These flavors share the benefits of 15 grams of collagen protein, 100 milligrams of caffeine, honey, plus amino acids and vitamins. Although the gel does contain caffeine, it was intentionally created to help people avoid the unwanted side effects of it.
