Medicinal Benefits

COLLAGEN TYPE II+CALCIUM CITRATE+CALCIUM ASCORBATE+METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE+GLUCOSAMINE is a supplement used to treat various physiological conditions that affect the skin, muscles, skeletal system and wound healing. COLLAGEN TYPE II+CALCIUM CITRATE+CALCIUM ASCORBATE+METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE+GLUCOSAMINE contains Collagen Type II, Calcium Citrate, Calcium Ascorbate (Vitamin C), Methylsulfonylmethane and Glucosamine. COLLAGEN TYPE II+CALCIUM CITRATE+CALCIUM ASCORBATE+METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE+GLUCOSAMINE helps in improving joint mobility and movement in general. In addition, COLLAGEN TYPE II+CALCIUM CITRATE+CALCIUM ASCORBATE+METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE+GLUCOSAMINE promotes normal functioning and strength of bone and muscle cells. Collagen is an important component of cartilage and bone and is hence essential in maintaining the joint architecture. It helps in building muscle mass and gives stamina to your muscles and bones. It also provides lubrication to joints and eases movement, thereby relieving symptoms such as pain and stiffness. Calcium citrate helps by restoring normal calcium levels in the body, required for optimal functioning of bones and joints. Calcium Ascorbate provides Vitamin C, which is a powerful antioxidant and helps prevent oxidative stress. It also helps to stimulate osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) to form healthy, new bone cells. Another function of Vitamin C is the repair and rejuvenation of damaged cells. Methylsulfonylmethane helps in alleviating pain and inflammation as it is a potent anti-inflammatory agent. It also has analgesic (pain-relieving) properties. Glucosamine works by contributing to the production of bone-protecting cartilage. It stimulates the synthesis of proteoglycan- a very essential material for cartilage production. It also exerts anti-inflammatory action and slows down cartilage destruction. By producing cartilage, COLLAGEN TYPE II+CALCIUM CITRATE+CALCIUM ASCORBATE+METHYLSULFONYLMETHANE+GLUCOSAMINE cushions bones and joints and provides pain relief.

    Patients Concern

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Osteoarthritis: Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis. It occurs due to the breakdown of cartilage that cushions and protects the bones. The disease progresses gradually and tends to worsen if not treated. Symptoms include joint pain in the hips, lower back, knees and hands. It is commonly seen in post-menopausal women. 

    Osteoporosis: Osteoporosis is a state in which the bones become weak and brittle. It is often brought about by disease and age (menopausal osteoporosis). In osteoporosis, the activity of bone-destroying cells surpasses the activity of bone-forming cells. Most people do not suffer from any symptoms until there's a fracture and bones literally start to break.

    Joint pain: It refers to the aches/pain, discomfort and soreness in the joints.
