Collagen hydrolysate is a valuable supplier of the amino acids necessary for growth. In fact, it has the same amino acid composition as what is known as type 2 collagen, which is produced in the body by the cartilage cells called chondrocytes and is essential to the structure of cartilage. However, many amino acids are not synthesized in the body. The fact that we lead very active lives and often eat meals that aren't well balanced would alone suffice to justify the intake of collagen from an animal source. Especially since we know that, contrary to what was long thought, part of the gelatin we ingest makes its way through the intestinal wall and is incorporated and stored into the cartilage.

The role of collagen hydrolysate in the prevention and treatment of degenerative joint diseases is thought to come mainly from its ability to stimulate the production of the cells that are responsible for maintaining joint-cushioning cartilage. Clinical evidence has also shown that collagen hydrolysate can alleviate pain and improve joint mobility in patients suffering from osteoarthritis. It has been used successfully in the early treatment of this disease as well as to relieve pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis and stress pain that follows strenuous exercise. Athletic people can thus greatly benefit from the use of collagen since it has the ability to reduce the degenerative changes that take place when cartilage regularly undergoes heavy stress. Moreover, those who suffer from osteoporosis will also benefit from collagen hydrolysate because of its action on the structure of the bones.

While the effectiveness of GLUCOSAMINE is now widely recognized, the more recent use of COLLAGEN HYDROLYSATE in the prevention and treatment of degenerative joint diseases holds equal promise.

As for the benefits of Glucosamine Hydrochloride, they are no longer disputed. It is now a well-known fact that this small but very important molecule greatly helps to fabricate collagen, to alleviate some of the worst symptoms of osteoarthritis and to slow down the progression of the disease. Although the body naturally synthesizes glucosamine, a lack of it is considered to be one of the main risk factors associated with the onset and development of arthritic conditions. In the absence of sufficient quantities of this important molecule, cartilage slowly looses its elasticity and is progressively destroyed. And aside from the fact that it promotes the production of cartilage cells, glucosamine also has an anti-inflammatory effect.

The combination of collagen and Glucosamine Hydrochloride is a perfect formula in preventing osteoporosis for women over the age of 35 and essential to building and maintaining bone mass.
