Product description
Collagen
Collagen is a protein known as “structural”, which is to say that they make up the organism by giving it structure. It is a sort of “glue” for tissue. It is also the most abundant protein in the body. Collagen is essential to the cohesion, elasticity and regeneration of tissue.
There are more then 12 types of collagen but the one that is present in cartilage is type-ii collagen.
With rheumatoid arthritis, complex immune mechanisms destroy type-ii collagen in the cartilage.
In traditional chinese medicine, consuming animal cartilage has been recommended for thousands of years to treat articular issues.
Modern nutritional habits are greatly responsible for generalized collagen deficiency. Nowadays, people rarely eat good quantities of homemade stocks or broths made with meat or chicken prepared with the bones and cartilage. The use of boneless meats or packaged broths is more widespread.
Land art advantages
Contain some vitamin c: ascorbic acid contributes to collagen biosynthesis. It catalyses proline and lysine hydroxylation in hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine, normal collagen constituants.
Hydrolyzed: complex proteins are separated, rendering bio-available amino acids for superior assimilation.
Pleasant taste developed by our expert aromatician.
