Vitabiotics Jointace Collagen 30s

Vitabiotics Jointace CollagenVitabiotics Jointace Collagen tablets contain a comprehensive formula specifically designed for those who wish to maintain joint health with particular focus on cartilage health through the added benefits of collagen.Collagen is a key structural protein in the connective tissues of the body including cartilage, bones, tendons, ligaments and skin. High grade type II Collagen helps maintain structural support and connectivity between cells and makes up 90% of the collagen found in articular cartilage.This differs from other types of collagen as it has higher levels of hydroxylysine. The ability of the chondrocytes (cells found in cartilage that produce and maintain the cartilage matrix) to produce type II collagen is largely dependant on having the right amino acids e.g. hydroxylysine available in the diet to build the protein chain. The high-grade type II collagen complex used in Jointace has been specially designed to improve absorption.Glucosamine sulphate is an important nutrient to help maintain healthy joints. The body’s ability to manufacture it declines with age. However, whilst glucosamine sulphate plays an effective role in the production of collagen, the natural cushion in cartilage, it is only one factor in joint health.Jointace Collagen also included chondroitin, as it works synergistically with glucosamine to help renew and repair cartilage, and maintain the lubricating properties of fluids around the joints. Jointace Collagen contains a special high quality LMW (Low molecular weight) form of chondroitin.The combination of collagen, glucosamine and chondroitin is designed to help maintain cartilage and joint health, and gives unbeatable value by providing more than just glucosamine sulphate alone.Jointace Collagen tablets also provide ginger, an extract often used in joint health, together with vitamin C, an antioxidant and co-factor in the production of collagen.Formulated using scientific research and produced to high GMP quality standards..No artificial colours.No gluten.No preservatives.No sugar.No salt or yeast.Not tested on animals.Nutritional Information Average per 2 Tablets% EC RDACollagen (Type II Complex)300mg-Glucosamine Sulphate1000mg-Chondroitin Sulphate100mg-Vitamin D20mcg400Vitamin E40mg400Vitamin C60mg100Folic Acid400mcg200Vitamin B1220mcg2000Zinc10mg67Manganese4mg-Copper1mg-Selenium120mcg-Ginger Root Extract Equivalent to:80mg-DirectionsTake two tablets per day with your main meal.
