Can marine collagen supplements help with joint pain?

Recent studies suggest that collagen, a natural substance produced by the body is very important in the treatment of osteoarthritis and joint pain. As we age, our natural supply of collagen dwindles, but the good news is that collagen supplements are a safe and effective way of replenishing our collagen levels.

What is collagen?

Collagen is a naturally occurring protein that makes up the structure of skin, muscles, bones, and cartilage – in fact, collagen makes up more than 95% of the cartilage found in our joints. Cartilage is the substance that cushions and protects joints, keeping them movable and pain-free. As we age, the cartilage in the joints wears down, and our natural levels of collagen drop, causing pain, stiffness and osteoarthritis.

How does collagen help relieve joint pain?

The better the supply of new collagen cells to the cartilage cushions of the joints, the lower the risk of stiffness and pain. Many sports people take collagen as part of their daily supplement regimen to protect their joints and stimulate healing from strain and injury.

How can I get more collagen?

Collagen is produced naturally by the body, but as the collagen levels drop with age, the natural production can be stimulated by introducing collagen back into the body.  An excellent source is marine collagen. The collagen will not be effectively absorbed into the body and joints unless there is enough vitamins B1, B5, B6, B12 and vitamin C present in the system. Fortunately, there is a perfect solution.

Kollo is a daily liquid collagen supplement that combines marine collagen peptides with the vitamins required to help the best levels of absorption into the body. After taking the supplement daily for 12 weeks, users report significant improvements in joint stiffness and pain. As Kollo also does wonders for the condition of hair, skin, and nails, it is a must-have supplement for older people looking for a safe and natural way to support health and well-being.
