Formula
Gelagen declares thirteen nutrients and prints an amount beside every one, which is the best thing about this label. Biotin is the largest at 5,000 mcg, or 16,667% of the daily value. Choline is the smallest. No collagen appears on the panel.

Formula
Each chip says where the amount sits, in words as well as colour.
as retinyl acetate
630 mcg RAE70% of the daily value
Preformed vitamin A, the animal-form retinoid rather than beta-carotene. NIH puts the adult recommendation at 900 mcg RAE for men and 700 for women, and the upper limit at 3,000 mcg. It is the one nutrient here where the upper limit is worth knowing, because NIH warns that too much of it in pregnancy can cause birth defects.
as ascorbic acid
20 mg22% of the daily value
The best known of the skin vitamins, because the body cannot build collagen without it. That is a fact about your own collagen, not about collagen in the bottle. Twenty milligrams is about a third of a medium orange.
as cholecalciferol
10 mcg50% of the daily value
Four hundred international units, which is half the labelling Daily Value and a third of what many standalone vitamin D products carry. Relevant to skin mainly because skin is where the body makes it from sunlight.
as d-alpha tocopheryl acetate
7.4 mg49% of the daily value
The natural-source d-alpha form rather than the synthetic dl-alpha, which is the better of the two and worth noting since the label bothered to print which one it used.
as pyridoxine HCl
2 mg118% of the daily value
Slightly over the labelling Daily Value. B6 has an upper limit in the tens of milligrams for long-term use; two milligrams is nowhere near it.
as folate, 442 mcg DFE
442 mcg DFE111% of the daily value
Just over the Daily Value. The label prints DFE, dietary folate equivalents, which is the correct unit and more care than a gummy has to take.
as methylcobalamin
6 mcg250% of the daily value
Two and a half times the Daily Value, in the methylcobalamin form. B12 has no established upper limit and excess is excreted, so a multiple like this is ordinary rather than alarming.
5,000 mcg16,667% of the daily value
The headline number on this panel and the reason the safety section exists. NIH puts the adequate intake for adults at 30 mcg a day. This is 5,000. Biotin is the standard hair-skin-and-nails ingredient and high-dose biotin is also the one thing in this bottle that can interfere with a blood test.
5.2 mg104% of the daily value
Vitamin B5, a shade over the Daily Value. Widespread in food and rarely short in a normal diet.
0.04 mg0.007% of the daily value
Forty micrograms, against a Daily Value of 550 milligrams: roughly one part in fourteen thousand of the reference amount. It is on the panel as a name rather than as a dose.
42 mcg28% of the daily value
About a quarter of the Daily Value. Iodine matters for the thyroid; it is not a skin ingredient, and anyone with a thyroid condition should mention any iodine supplement to their clinician.
2.7 mg25% of the daily value
A quarter of the Daily Value. NIH says zinc helps wounds heal and that most people in the United States already get enough from food, which is the honest frame for a quarter-dose.
40 mcgNo daily value of the daily value
No Daily Value has been established for inositol, so no percentage can honestly be printed beside it. Where it has been studied in humans the doses are measured in grams. Forty micrograms is a name on a panel.
Daily values
Thirteen amounts, and how far each sits from its daily value
Each dot is one nutrient; the upright line is 100 percent of the Daily Value. The axis is logarithmic, so read the dots by where they sit rather than by how long the tails are.
Biotin is the dot out on the right: 5,000 mcg against an adequate intake of 30 mcg. Choline is the one on the far left, 0.04 mg against a Daily Value of 550 mg. Ten of the thirteen sit within one gridline of the daily value; the two extremes are the ones worth knowing. Percentages are computed from the FDA Daily Values, not copied from the bottle.
| Nutrient | Declared amount | Percent of the daily value | Band |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vitamin A | 630 mcg RAE | 70% | Below the daily value |
| Vitamin C | 20 mg | 22% | Below the daily value |
| Vitamin D | 10 mcg | 50% | Below the daily value |
| Vitamin E | 7.4 mg | 49% | Below the daily value |
| Vitamin B6 | 2 mg | 118% | At or near the daily value |
| Folate | 442 mcg DFE | 111% | At or near the daily value |
| Vitamin B12 | 6 mcg | 250% | Far above the daily value |
| Biotin | 5,000 mcg | 16,667% | Far above the daily value |
| Pantothenic acid | 5.2 mg | 104% | At or near the daily value |
| Choline | 0.04 mg | 0.007% | Below the daily value |
| Iodine | 42 mcg | 28% | Below the daily value |
| Zinc | 2.7 mg | 25% | Below the daily value |
| Inositol | 40 mcg | No daily value | No daily value established |
Nutrient by nutrient
Preformed retinoid, the animal form rather than beta-carotene. Vision, immune function, skin cell turnover. 70% of the daily value, a fifth of the adult upper limit. The one number to add up against a multivitamin.
Ascorbic acid, which the body cannot make. The cofactor the collagen-building enzymes cannot work without. At 22%, food-sized rather than a dose.
Four hundred international units of cholecalciferol, half the daily value. Skin is where the body makes it from sunlight. Standalone D products often carry three times this.
The fat-soluble antioxidant in cell membranes. The label specifies d-alpha tocopheryl acetate, the natural-source form rather than synthetic dl-alpha, which most gummies skip. Half the daily value.
Pyridoxine hydrochloride, a coenzyme in amino acid metabolism. At 118%, the overshoot any multivitamin makes. The long-term upper limit is tens of milligrams.
Printed in dietary folate equivalents, the correct unit and more care than a gummy has to take. Needed wherever cells divide quickly, skin included. At 111%, a full dose, and not a prenatal product.
Methylcobalamin, an active form, at two and a half times the daily value. Nerve tissue and red blood cells. No upper limit is set and the excess is excreted.
Vitamin B7, the standard hair, skin and nails ingredient. Biotin in two gummies is 5,000 mcg against an adequate intake of 30 mcg a day, which is 16,667% of the daily value. Tell whoever orders your blood test that you take it.
Vitamin B5, the backbone of coenzyme A, which the body uses to handle energy and build fats. At 104%, one clean dose, and so common in food that shortage is rare.
Forty micrograms against a daily value of 550 milligrams: 0.007% of the reference amount, one part in fourteen thousand. A name rather than a dose.
The thyroid uses iodine to make thyroid hormone, and that is its whole role here. Not a skin ingredient. At 28%, worth mentioning if you have a thyroid condition.
NIH says zinc helps wounds heal, and that most people in the United States get enough from food. That is the honest frame for 25% of the daily value.
A sugar alcohol the body also makes for itself. No daily value has been established, so no percentage can honestly be printed and none is. Studied in grams, not micrograms.
The gaps
| Missing | Status | What it leaves open |
|---|---|---|
| Other ingredients | not published | Most of what you chew. Sugar, gelling agent and allergens stay unknown. |
| Vegetarian suitability | Cannot be established | Gelatin or pectin decides it, and neither is published. |
| Percent daily value column | Not on the label | Amounts were published and percentages were not. Ours are computed. |
| Collagen | None on the panel | Not as collagen, gelatin or peptide. See the name finding on the home page. |
How to read this panel
Read the thirteen together and the shape is plain: three within a few percent of their daily value, one at two and a half times it, seven partial top-ups, two traces and biotin. A skin-directed multivitamin, not a treatment. None of the thirteen is collagen, which is the one thing the name invites you to assume: the name finding on the home page has the full finding.
Two bottles is $79 each and lasts exactly 60 days, which is the only pack that matches the guarantee window. Three brings it to $69 a bottle with free US shipping.
