Why you should be taking collagen for arthritis

Arthritis is a disease that causes joint inflammation, stiffness and pain, making it difficult for you to move or stay active. There are several different types of arthritis that have their own causes and symptoms, but collagen has been increasingly used to alleviate symptoms of this painful condition. Let's take a look at all the benefits of collagen for arthritis:

First, what is collagen?

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body, and it provides structure, strength and elasticity to bones, muscles, tendons and cartilage.

The benefits of collagen for arthritis:

Eases knee pain

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disorder that causes deterioration of cartilage. Cartilage covers the end bones in joints and absorbs shocks while helping the bones glide together with ease. Deteriorating cartilage causes knees to be stiff, inflamed and painful, so taking collagen supplements stimulates your body to create more collagen that amasses in cartilage so that you can move freely with less pain.

Eases lower back pain

The bones, muscles and tendons work together to help keep the spine intact. Unfortunately, these parts of the body can wear out due to repeated movements over the years, thus limiting your flexibility. As a building block of the body, collagen intake ensures your lower back bones, muscles and tendons can move with ease, reducing any pain.

Prevent bone loss

As you age, collagen becomes less abundant, so our bones can become weak and more susceptible to breaking. Using collagen supplements helps prevent loss of bone density and breakage.

Inhibits immune cell attack

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that destroys the joint lining when the immune system attacks healthy cells. You can benefit from collagen intake as it inhibits or slows down the attack of healthy cells in the joints.

Builds muscle mass

Reduced levels of collagen can loosen tendons and affect muscle strength. Muscle weakness contributes to joint pain in people with arthritis, but increasing your collagen intake encourages the creation of creatine, a muscle protein that contributes to your muscle growth and strength.

Reduces inflammation

Psoriatic arthritis is an autoimmune disorder that causes joint inflammation and skin irritation. Boosting your collagen levels reduces inflammation, tenderness, morning stiffness and pain associated with the disease.
