Collagen Type II

Collagen Type II is a specific form of collagen, a protein that provides structure and strength to your cartilage, which cushions joints and maintains their function. It is the main component in the cartilage of your joints, especially in areas like the knees, hips, and spine. This type of collagen helps keep the cartilage resilient, flexible, and able to absorb shocks from movement. As we age or due to wear and tear, collagen Type II production can decline, leading to joint discomfort or conditions like osteoarthritis. Supplementing this collagen may support joint health and cartilage repair.
