i know gelatin is made from animals bones. i am not a vegan but i do not eat pork. all other animals are fine. does the knox gelatin that everyone keeps talking about contain pork does anyone know? if its from cow id be ok with it. ive always just grown up being taught that gelatin had pork in it and so always avoided it.
if it is pork, is there another gelatin without pork that can boost testoserone does anyone know?
thx!

If it is made out of let's say bovine collagen it should have the same effect. What I've found about Knox is that it has only small percenatage of pork skin ( not pork skin itself, but as the source kwim) Maybe you can google ingredients of some Kosher gelatine?

gizmo we buy a pure beef gelatin - it is what I used during our boy sway for our 2yo. Here is a link to it on the company site: http://www.bernardjensen.com/product_info.php?products_id=48 I usually buy it from Amazon :)

Brilliant thank you! If it is all beef it is fine for raising T. You need to watch out for the vegan "gelatin" which is not gelatin at all but instead some sort of seaweed. IDK how the vegan gelatin sways but I doubt it raises T!!
