This product contains BioCell Collagenâ„¢, a patented, hydrolyzed and denatured low molecular weight collagen. In addition to collagen, BioCell Collagenâ„¢ provides the combined benefits of hyaluronic acid (HA), depolymerized low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate, glucosamine sulfate, and amino acids including lysine, proline and hydroxyproline. These compounds promote cartilage synthesis and enhance synovial fluid, supporting the composition, integrity and motility of joints. A double blind placebo-controlled study involving 16 individuals supplementing with BioCell Collagenâ„¢ for 8 weeks, indicated statistically significant support for joint function and comfort. In a peak absorption study, serum levels of HA increased gradually and with statistical significance after BioCell Collagenâ„¢ supplementation, emphasizing the potential for this compound to provide important connective tissue support. The components of collagen also support the elasticity and firmness of skin. Furthermore, HA attracts water, promoting hydration and moisture retention within the dermal matrix. Case reports have suggested that BioCell Collagenâ„¢ may help rejuvenate skin and modulate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Collagen JS provides patented BioCell Collagenâ„¢, offering a unique profile of compounds for optimal joint motility and comfort as well as healthy skin.
