Question 1

Am I missing a scoop?

Accepted Answer

We strive to be as low waste as possible, so we do not include scoops in our bags.

Question 2

Are the cattle pasture-raised and free from antibiotics or growth hormones?

Accepted Answer

The cattle used for our collagen are raised on a pasture and fed a 100% grass diet. They are not administered growth hormones or antibiotics as part of routine husbandry, which is why we’re proud to tout our grass-fed and finished certification.

We focus on sourcing systems that prioritize animal welfare and clear feeding practices, and we verify finished ingredients through quality and safety testing.

Question 3

But… I hate the taste of stevia

Accepted Answer

If you think stevia tastes bad, you probably haven’t had it the right way.

Others:

- Use way too much

- Use the wrong part of the plant

- Don’t use organic

We:

- We use organic stevia without ANY additives

- We use the right part of the stevia herb

- We process it naturally

- We use a tiny, tiny, tiny bit.

Let us know if you taste the difference!

Question 8

Do you test your collagen for safety and quality?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Like all dietary supplements and food ingredients, collagen is tested to meet safety and quality standards, including screening for contaminants such as heavy metals. We test finished ingredients to ensure they meet our internal quality requirements.

Question 9

Does Organic Hydration™ contain any added flavorings, dyes or colors?

Accepted Answer

No. Our founder’s philosophy has always been that food should be as close to nature as possible, and even many of those “natural” flavors are, well, far from natural. We don’t believe in using artificial flavorings in any product, and you’ll never find “natural flavors” on our ingredient list.

Question 19

How much Organic Hydration™ should I have in a day?

Accepted Answer

At GoodOnya, we prefer a proactive approach to hydration. Our electrolyte drink mix with trace minerals, a good source of magnesium, and great flavor is agreeable for most to consume multiple times a day. That way, it can be a seamless addition to your water-drinking routine. But of course, always check with your doctor if you have any concerns or have experienced sensitivity in the past to magnesium.

Question 20

How should I prep Organic Hydration™?

Accepted Answer

Scoop 1 Tbsp into 12 oz of water, stir, and sip. Feel free to adjust the amount to your needs or flavor preference. Some prefer to blend using a frother or shake it in a water bottle.

We’re big fans of serving Organic Hydration™ over ice or chilled, but to each their own. Some people love it in smoothies, matcha, popsicles, and more.

Question 23

Our mix has been tested SAFE for arsenic, lead, mercury and cadmium. It is over 94% below the California Maximum Allowable Dose Level (MADL) for arsenic, over 95% below the MADL for lead and over 98% below the California MADL for cadmium and no detectable read on mercury.

Question 24

Our products undergo independent testing to ensure that they adhere to the safety standards set by the FDA. GoodOnya products are aimed to be as safe as possible and are well under these limitations.

Question 25

Is Organic Hydration vegan/plant-based/paleo?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It’s all those things. And organic!

Question 26

Is this keto / diabetic friendly?

Accepted Answer

GoodOnya contains just 1g of sugar from real fruit and 7g carbs. It can be a great option for those looking to reduce sugar consumption without turning to artificial sweeteners like sucralose. But as always, check with your doctor and modify as appropriate.

Question 27

Is this safe for kids?

Accepted Answer

With no dyes or artificial flavors and only 1g of sugar from real fruit, Organic Hydration™ is a great option for kids 2 and up! We recommend starting with 1 tsp and to always check with a pediatrician before incorporating it into their routine.

Question 28

Is this safe for pregnancy and nursing?

Accepted Answer

Organic Hydration™ is Certified Organic, Certified Glyphosate Free, and low in sugar, making it a great option for any trimester. Its light lemonade taste and electrolytes can help those battling morning sickness, and keep you hydrated well into nursing.

Talk to your doctor before using it to make sure it is right for you.

Question 29

What can I expect when incorporating GoodOnya into my daily routine?

Accepted Answer

We crafted Organic Hydration™ with the aim of helping you stay more hydrated by encouraging you to drink more water, while soaking up the benefits of nature’s blend of electrolytes and trace minerals. The feel-good effects could include the benefits of hydration (and a good source of magnesium) such as brightened moods, better sleep, more energy, and a boosted immune system.

Question 30

What does “Certified 100% grass-fed and finished” mean for your collagen?

Accepted Answer

“Certified 100% grass-fed and finished” means the cattle are raised on a grass-based diet from birth through harvest, without being transitioned to grain or feedlot rations at any stage. This definition describes the animal’s full feeding history, not just part of its life.

This certification covers both raw material sourcing and aspects of the production process, and is conducted by an independent certification body affiliated with the American Grassfed Association. Certification requires documented standards and verification, helping ensure that feeding practices are consistent from birth through harvest.

Certification of 100% grass-fed and finished collagen at this level is uncommon in the category.

Question 31

What if I don’t receive my order?

Accepted Answer

We hate to hear that your package wasn’t delivered. Please reach out to hi@goodonyaorganic.com with your order number as reference and someone from our team can help you out.

Question 32

What ingredients are in Organic Hydration™?

Accepted Answer

Organic Hydration™ is USDA Certified Organic. Our ingredients include organic lemon juice powder, organic coconut water powder, organic stevia leaf extract, magnesium (from sea water), ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), and pink Himalayan salt. We source organic whenever possible, and from the earth or the sea when not.

Please note our product contains COCONUT.

Question 33

What is Ascorbic Acid used for?

Accepted Answer

Vitamin C helps preserve our real lemon juice. If we used a different artificial or natural lemon flavoring, which could survive the zombie apocalypse, we wouldn’t need it.

Question 34

What is GoodOnya Organic Hydration™?

Accepted Answer

Organic Hydration™ electrolyte drink mix is a powdered blend of real fruit, electrolytes, and mineral-rich pink Himalayan salt that you mix with water for a refreshing source of daily hydration. Its light lemonade taste, good source of magnesium, and only 1g of sugar make it a must-have addition to your daily hydration routine.

Question 35

What is GoodOnya’s return and refund policy?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, we don’t accept returns or do any exchanges. If your order was damaged in transit, or you received the wrong item, please reach out to our team at hi@goodonyaorganic.com and a teammate can assist.

Question 36

What is collagen?

Accepted Answer

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. It plays a structural role in skin health, connective tissue, bones, and joints, and is composed of amino acids such as glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline.

As we age, the body’s natural collagen production changes over time. Because of this, many people choose to include collagen peptides in their daily routines as a convenient source of protein and amino acids.

Question 37

What makes GoodOnya Organic Hydration™ different?

Accepted Answer

Our mix uses organic ingredients wherever possible, and all ingredients are derived from nature.

A few things we prioritize:

Using pink Himalayan salt instead of sodium chloride (table salt) for a more mineral-dense source of sodium.
Using coconut water for potassium rather than just potassium chloride.
Limiting electrolyte quantity to focus on quality sources of electrolytes in real fruit.
Magnesium derived from sea water.
Organic lemons instead of lemon flavorings.

Question 38

What makes GoodOnya’s Collagen different from other brands?

Accepted Answer

One ingredient keeps things simple and effective. Our certified grass-fed collagen peptides are derived solely from free-range cattle and meet strict quality and well-being standards. That reflects higher sourcing, partner, and transparency standards from pasture to packet. The result is a neutral-tasting collagen that blends effortlessly into everyday routines.

Question 39

What type of collagen is this, and what part of the animal does it come from?

Accepted Answer

Our collagen provides naturally occurring Type I and Type III collagen. It is sourced from bovine hide.

Type I collagen is the most abundant form in the body and is commonly associated with skin, bones, and connective tissue. Type III collagen is often found alongside Type I and plays a role in the body’s structural framework.

These types are widely used in collagen peptide supplements because they reflect the most prevalent forms of collagen found naturally in the body.

Question 40

What's your source of Vitamin C?

Accepted Answer

Our naturally-fermented Vitamin C is derived from Non-GMO corn and distilled down to the compounds we need. It leaves zero corn left in the finished product. The extraction is through a fermentation process rather than chemical solvents.

Sadly, much of the ascorbic acid on the market is from corn. Ascorbic acid and citric acid in products that are NOT Certified Organic can be from GMO corn. That is one reason it’s so important to buy certified organic products, as there are no GMOs allowed.

Question 41

When will I be charged for my subscription each month?

Accepted Answer

You’ll be charged each month on the date of your initial purchase. For example, if you place your first subscription order on the 8th of the month, your order will be processed on the 8th of each following month.

If your first order or recurring date is changed to fall at the end of the month, your date may shift to the last day of the month (for example, if your subscription falls on the 31st, but there are only 30 days in the month, you’ll be charged on the 30th that month and the 31st on eligible months).

Question 42

When will my order ship?

Accepted Answer

Orders are processed typically within 1-3 business days of receipt. Once processed, orders are shipped and delivered typically via USPS, although there are some scenarios where it may ship via a different carrier.

All orders are shipped from our warehouse in Southern California.

Question 43

Where did Collagen go?

Accepted Answer

GoodOnya set out to find a collagen product that checked all of our boxes: non-GMO, and produced from 100% grass-fed and grass-finished cows. We previously were able to track down a small, (in our opinion) pure supply from Australia and New Zealand, but they’re unfortunately not exporting anymore. We sold out of the last of our stock in 2024 but recently found a new supplier that carries a certification of 100% grass-fed and finished collagen, and we brought it back in 2026. This new one is better than before and here to stay.

Question 44

Where do you ship to?

Accepted Answer

We ship to the United States and Canada at this point in time, with some potential exceptions.

For international orders (Canada), the customer is responsible for all import, duties and taxes imposed by their respective country. Once tracking shows that the product has arrived at customs, we are no longer responsible for the final arrival to your door. We do not accept returns.

Question 45

Where is your collagen sourced from?

Accepted Answer

Our collagen is sourced from cattle raised in Argentina, a region known for established grass-based cattle systems. Country of origin can influence how feeding practices are documented and verified, particularly when certification is involved.

Sourcing location alone does not determine outcomes. It primarily affects traceability, transparency, and the ability to confirm how cattle were raised.

Question 46

Why are our electrolytes "low" compared to other brands?

Accepted Answer

We approach hydration differently than other hydration mixes on the market. We focus less on the numbers listed on the nutritional panel and instead direct all of our attention towards the actual ingredients. We believe in quality over quantity. Organic Hydration™ is designed to help you drink more water. It’s not a quick-fix solution, and it’s not for cases of extreme dehydration or post-marathon replenishment. It’s a delicious incentive to crush your water goals and feel your best.

Our low numbers are agreeable for most to consume multiple times a day. Think of it as a treat: a refreshing lemonade with sugar from real fruit and extra electrolytes on top.

Question 47

Why did your packaging change?

Accepted Answer

We wanted our design to brighten your day as much as our organic ingredients and minerals do. Rest assured, nothing has changed with the product—our recipe and ingredients are exactly the same and simply too good to change.

Question 48

Why do quality and sourcing matter when it comes to Collagen?

Accepted Answer

At GoodOnya, we’re committed to responsible farming and working with partners who share our values. Given our high standards for animal welfare, it’s important for our collagen peptides to be sourced from free-range and grass-fed cattle.

Question 49

Why do you use stevia?

Accepted Answer

There’s a lot of information out there about stevia – and our take is that it’s widely misunderstood (for good reason).

Some stevia is chemically processed with petro-based solvents, so what started as something natural quickly became chemically altered, GMO-filled, and bitter tasting. Many companies use the wrong part of the plant, mix it with other chemicals, or use way too much stevia in their formulation, which is why it gets a bad rap.

Stevia is a naturally growing herb, and ours is always organic. We chose a stevia that is water processed, steeped like tea, then dried so we’re able to get a hint of sweetness without the negative effects of added sugars. And it tastes incredible when you do it the right way.

No additives involved, and we use just a tiny amount to cut the tartness of the lemon and give you that incredible lemonade flavor.

Question 50

Why does a 10-gram serving contain about 9 grams of protein?

Accepted Answer

Collagen peptides are a highly concentrated form of protein. During processing, fats and carbohydrates are removed, resulting in a powder that is typically around 90% protein by weight.

The remaining amount usually consists of small amounts of natural moisture and trace minerals retained from the source material. While collagen is rich in amino acids like glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline, it is considered an incomplete protein because it does not contain all essential amino acids in significant amounts.

This is why collagen is best viewed as a functional protein, not a complete protein replacement.
