Glucocollagen
A Dietary Supplement to Support Skin, Vascular, Joint & Connective Tissue Health.*
A combination of protective ingredients that work synergistically to:
- Support cartilage and collagen regeneration by providing raw materials for production of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)
- Support moisture retention, collagen production and skin elasticity
- Balance inflammatory mediators like cytokines and prostaglandins
BioCell Chicken Collagen II
Chicken Collagen II is made from 100% pure enzymatically hydrolyzed chicken sternum cartilage, thereby providing high bioavailability and purity. It is the only patented clinically-tested source of Chicken Collagen Type II; shown to be effective in joint and skin
conditions due to its purity and high bioavailability. It contains chondroprotective agents that support joint, skin and vascular structure, function and lubrication. Cartilage Matrix Glycoprotein protects cartilage from breakdown, balances cytokines and prostaglandins, and supports cartilage synthesis.Hyaluronic Acid
The BioCell Chicken Collagen II naturally contains a minimum of 10% of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), a GAG not usually found in other Collagen products. HA supports retention of skin moisture and functions as a lubricant between the connective tissue of the skin and is a major constituent of synovial fluid in the joints. HA rejuvenates skin, supports the skin healing process and
improves skin tone.Chondroitin Sulfates
BioCell Collagen II naturally contains depolymerized Chondroitin Sulfates, which are absorbed up to 5 times better than bovine-derived materials. Chondroitin Sulfates support the flexibility and elasticity of many body tissues including connective tissues, the walls of blood vessels and the structural integrity of the heart, brain and skin.
Glucosamine HCl
Glucosamine supports skin and joint health by supporting the production of GAGs, proteoglycans and collagen. GAGs give shape, elasticity and rigidity to connective tissues. GAGs hold high levels of water in their structure, which enables the joints, skin and vascular beds to hold
more water thereby increasing flexibility, cushioning ability
and resiliency.Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM)
MSM is an important source of organic sulfur. Sulfur is found in collagen, hormones and immunoglobulins. Sulfur helps maintain proper connective tissue function and formation of collagen. Sulfur deficiencies have been associated with slow wound healing, immune system dysfunction, poor skin health and degenerative joint conditions. MSM supports proper tone, elasticity and texture of the skin and is needed for proper hair and nail growth.
