Well-designed medical research projects have been conducted by major universities, such as studies that provide substantial clinical proof that Type II Collagen may offer tremendous benefits to the millions of Americans suffering from debilitating joint problems.
Better yet, scientists are finding that when Collagen II is combined with specific minerals, fatty acids, vitamins, enzymes, and herbs, a powerful synergy occurs that can stop redness, swelling, and joint destruction. Even more, stiffness virtually disappears, allowing your connective tissues and vital supporting structure to heal and rebuild your joints.
Affecting one out of seven people, over 100 different types of bone/joint problems are lumped together under the term "arthritis." Unfortunately, current approaches are inadequate because they have unacceptable side effects. Anti-inflammatory agents (such as aspirin, naproxen, ibuprofen, and steroids) tear up your digestive, nervous, and Defense mechanism of bodys while offering minimal, transient relief from bone/joint agony.
Research projects on Type II Collagen, which is derived from the breastbone of six-to-eight week-old chickens, are exploding onto the scientific scene. Type II Collagen first gained recognition from the prestigious Harvard University School of Medicine, but now many elite universities are broadening our understanding of exactly how this substance produces its phenomenal results.
Joint cartilage, tendons, and bones contain Type II Collagen as their most abundant structural protein. Although it has been known for years that Type II Collagen contains the most important compounds for connective tissue repair and production of new cartilage, little attention was focused on its life-enhancing potential until recently.
In fact, Brandeis University researchers teamed up with Boston University to conduct a groundbreaking study of primates that were artificially induced with arthritis. The monkeys given Type II Collagen injections did not experience joint problems, whereas all the others developed deformities and joint problems (Cathcart 1986).
