Gelatin Health Joint Care Collagen

What is Joint Care and what does it do?

Joint Care is made from hydrolysed bioactive collagen peptides; clinically tested and specially formulated for your joints. Joint Care can help REDUCE JOINT PAIN associated with osteo arthritis, and also promotes and enhances joint health and function, and cartilage growth and repair.

The role of protein in the body

Collagen is protein, and we all know that protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of our healthy joints; but did you know that not all proteins are equal? Our bodies use different sizes and shapes of proteins, as well as different amino acids, for different purposes.

About protiens and peptides

Collagen is one of the most important types of protein produced by the body. Within our joints, collagen forms part of the cartilage used to cushion our bones which provides impact resistance and supports joint functionality. Our body makes this joint collagen by sequentially combining the triplets of amino acids; glycine with proline, hydroxyproline and other amino acids into a large ‘supercoiled’ helix structure that’s especially long lasting, but slow to repair.

• JOINT CARE supplies all of the right amino acids, as ‘cut to size’ peptides ready to support your joint’s healthy function and repair.
• Beef collagen is hydrolysed using specific enzymes that breakdown the strong triple helix, denature it into chains and then into precise low molecular weight peptides (3,000 kDa) that have been optimised for enhancing cartilage growth and repair.

Joint Care Collagen

• Protein is necessary for tissue building and repair
• 100% Hydrolysed Bioactive Beef Collagen Peptides
• Clean. Pure. Simple
• All-natural & unflavoured
• Source of protein
• Contains 18 amino acids
• Collagen is pure protein
• Easily dissolves in hot or cold liquid

Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, providing the foundation of our musculoskeletal system. This is crucial for mobility. The amino acid proline, found in Gelatin, can contribute to the maintenance of healthy joints, tendons and ligaments. It is a critical component of cartilage and works in conjunction with Vitamin C in keeping skin and joints healthy.

BioActive Collagen Peptide

• Neutral taste and odour. No fat or cholesterol.
• Gluten, Sugar, Fat, Dairy & GMO FREE
• No additives or colouring agents.
• Excellent solubility in either hot or cold water.
• Hydrolysed for fast absorption

What's the difference?

Protein is necessary for tissue building and repair. Protein is made up of amino acids. You will notice the amino acid profile is the same in the Gelatin Health range of Gelatin / Collagen products. The difference in each of the products is where and how the amino acid chain is split. This enables the product to be produced with specific molecular weight, size, and structural properties to help with tissue building and repair when used as part of a healthy diet involving the consumption of a variety of foods.

Strengthen Joint Cartilage & Tissue

Gelatin and hydrolysed Collagen are fantastic for muscle, bone and joint health because protein is necessary for tissue building and repair. It has huge anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties. Gelatin is derived from heating / breaking down of Collagen. Collagen is the protein found in the connective tissue of vertebrate animals and is abundant in bone, marrow, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments. All essential for optimal bone and joint health. Gelatin contains 18 key amino acids, some of which are known to reduce inflammation helping conditions such as arthritis and osteoarthritis symptoms. Gelatin and hydrolysed Collagen have been reported to contribute to the development/growth of cartilage, which strengthens joints and bones and increases mobility and range of movement.

It seems that no matter who you talk to, they say that they have inflammation of some sort, somewhere in their body. Knees, ankles, elbows, everywhere…………. The BIG questions – What is inflammation? Why is it there? What can we do about it?
Inflammation is defined as “a localised physical condition in which part of the body becomes reddened, swollen, hot, and often painful, especially as a reaction to injury or infection.” The good news is the inflammation action is most beneficial to our body when our body is trying to repair a wound or fight an illness, like when you have had a fever or a sore throat. This is the body’s way of protecting us, repairing us, looking after us. So what about when we have joint pain or inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract or inflammation of the bowel? Here’s a fun fact – Did you know any medical term with the word “itis” at the end means inflammation? Colitis – Inflammation of the colon. In short, inflammation is the body’s response to outside threats like stress, infection, or toxic chemicals.

When the immune system senses one of these dangers, it responds by activating proteins meant to protect cells and tissues. Let’s think about that statement. “Outside threats like stress or toxic chemicals” Wouldn’t this be an everyday occurrence? Well, it can be for some people, and that is why we see a huge increase in auto-immune diseases and arthritic conditions.This is also why it is extremely important to look after what God gave us. Our body is a vessel to carry us around in – just like a car. If you don’t look after your car, it will deteriorate. Leave it out in the sun – the paint will fade. Fill it with the wrong fuel and see what happens! Our bodies are no different. Leave us out in the sun and what happens to our protective organ – the skin. It gets damaged. Sunburn or worse, skin cancer, melanoma etc. Fill our body with the wrong fuel – high fat and sugar-laden diets – well, you won’t function at your optimum, will you? We need to put the correct fuel in. What is the correct fuel I hear you ask? Food that gives us energy. Protein, fibre, carbohydrates. Food that feeds our cells and nurtures them to grow. Not food that creates inflammation like refined sugars and greasy fatty McDonalds (sorry Macca’s).

So how does Gelatin come into this equation?

Gelatin hydrolysed Collagen has some amazing health properties, but today we are giving credit to the Glycine in the Gelatin. Glycine is an amino acid that has been found to reduce inflammation and is used to help create muscle tissue and convert glucose to energy. It also helps to boost our levels of creatine, which helps build muscle mass. Glycine helps to repair damaged tissues and reduce inflammation; without it, our wounds would never heal. About 1/3 of Collagen (this is the stuff that keeps our skin and connective tissue firm and flexible) is made of Glycine.

Because Gelatin is full of Glycine (and many other goodies), we are able to tackle the inflammation issue that is within our bodies. We would all have to agree; less inflammation would be better quality of life. Gelatin is a 100% natural product, it cannot be chemically reproduced or synthesised, it is affordable and contains many health benefits. Get some goodness into your body today.

In clinical trials, people taking Gelatin (around two grams daily) tend to experience less inflammation, less pain in the joints or muscles, better recovery, and even improved athletic abilities compared to people taking a placebo.
