UC-II® Collagen
Key Features
Structure & Source
-
Retains its natural triple-helix structure via a proprietary low-temperature extraction process, preserving bioactivity.
-
Structurally identical to human joint cartilage collagen.
Mechanism of Action
-
Activates immune cells in the gut (Peyer’s patches), triggering regulatory T cells to recognize joint collagen and reduce inflammatory enzymes (e.g., MMPs), thereby alleviating joint inflammation and pain.
-
Promotes cartilage repair by signaling the body to rebuild joint tissue.
Benefits
-
Enhances joint comfort, flexibility, and range of motion.
-
Reduces symptoms like swelling and stiffness, outperforming traditional joint supplements (e.g., glucosamine, chondroitin).
-
Supports athletic performance by improving recovery and endurance.
Clinical Validation
-
Backed by multiple studies demonstrating efficacy for osteoarthritis and age-related joint degeneration.
