Supports, protects, and preserves cartilage, tendons, ligaments, fascia, intervertebral discs, and skin.
Benefits:
-
Protects and promotes connective tissue biosynthesis
-
Supports joint lubrication, joint cushioning, and a normal connective tissue inflammatory response
-
Supports the body’s natural processes of cartilage, tendon, ligament, and fascia renewal (great for active adults and athletes)
-
Supports normal rejuvenation of healthy hair, skin, and nails
Collagen is a crucial element of skin and connective tissue. This protein gives skin its youthful bounce, and as it naturally declines, so does skin appearance and overall connective tissue health. Over time, lifestyle factors can reduce elasticity in cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and skin, contributing to the appearance of wrinkles and reduced dermal matrix strength. Collagen is formulated to nutritionally support cartilage, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and skin.
Modern Endocrine’s Collagen includes three clinically studied ingredients (FORTIGEL®, Tendaxion®, and Mobilee®) to support the body’s natural renewal process and help maintain connective tissue structure.
FORTIGEL®, backed by more than fifteen studies, provides bioactive collagen peptides (BCPs) with high concentrations of the specific peptides that make up connective tissue. The short-chain peptides’ precise length and low average molecular weight allow easy absorption, transport, and accumulation in target connective tissue. It provides 5 g of hypoallergenic protein per serving from a sustainable source. The lower dose of collagen peptides supports lower oxalate production compared with higher-dose collagen and gelatin products. In clinical research, FORTIGEL® has been shown to support healthy cartilage and to support joint comfort during exercise.
Mobilee® is a patented rooster comb extract rich in high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid (HA), which supports the viscoelastic, lubricating properties of synovial fluid. It also contains collagen and other glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Scientific evidence shows Mobilee® supports chondrocyte and synovial cell function and is two to four times more active than regular HA in supporting synovial fluid health. It also supports the quality of synovial fluid by supporting healthy synovial HA concentration.
Tendaxion® is a combination of type I collagen and mucopolysaccharides. Adult tendons, ligaments, and fascial tissue are made mainly of type I collagen organized into structural units. The structure and organization of these collagen fibrils are key to the tissues’ ability to endure mechanical force and support natural renewal. While collagen provides much of tendon and ligament structure and strength, mucopolysaccharides are the “glue” that holds them together and allows them to stretch, flex, and maintain resilience. Mucopolysaccharides are a critical component of the extracellular matrix and support structural integrity, lubrication, and spacing of collagen fibers.
