Product Description

While there exists over 25 types of collagen in the human body, over 90% is formed by Collagen Type 1.  New research has indicated that bovine form of hydrolyzed collagen type I and III play a more uniform role in the repair and support of connective and structural tissue in the human body. The new collagen is a combination of mostly types I and III, together the most abundant form of collagen in the human body.  This dietary supplement, known in the research as Peptan &#153, has shown to be as effective for joint health and even more effective than the original for the skin, hair, nails and bones. Although the taste and texture have changed, we have upgraded our collagen to benefit the whole body.  We have also upgraded the silica from horsetail rush explaining the darker color. Silica combines with collagen and vitamin D to create the organic matrix of the bone (this is what calcium attaches to for bone strengthening) and silica combines with collagen to create hair, skin and nails. This is key silica helps maintain collagen and the collagen/silica are both used by the body to create cartilage for joint health. Silica is also used with collagen to create tendons and ligaments. What&#8217s more the new Collagen Hx&#174 mixes more easily in than our original! Per serving, this product has 3500 mg of Hydrolyzed Collagen, 250 mg Horsetail Rush Stem Extract supplying 17.5mg Silica and 250 mg of standardized Boswellia Extract.
