Collagen Native Type 2 may help with  inflammation by supplying your body with a source of collagen. Your body can then use this to aid in repairing damaged tissue causing inflammation.

Collagen Native Type 2 can help with so many different systems and tissues in your body because collagen is used everywhere in your body. Supplementing with Collagen Native Type 2 helps to restore the levels of collagen in the body that are lost with time and aging.

Collagen Native Type 2 is not a pain reliever. It will not dull or numb the pain associated with arthritis and joint pain. It will help to resupply your body with collagen which the body can use to rebuild the tissues that are damaged and are causing the pain. Instead of treating the symptom, the pain, we want to address the cause of the problem. Your body uses collagen to repair what is damaged.

Our Collagen is sourced from North American, USDA inspected, bovine sources and is processed in the great state of Iowa in the United States. Proud to be Made in America!

Giving Collagen Native Type 2 to your Dog or your Cat is as safe as taking it yourself, but limit the dose to 1 capsule a day (2 for large dog breeds) so that they can get the same benefits that you will also enjoy! If they don’t like to take the capsule, simply pull the capsule apart and mix it with their food. Consult with a veterinarian before use.

Collagen Native Type 2 is sourced from Bovine(cow) cartilage because it is more similar to human cartilage than chicken and marine sourced collagen.

It is always a good idea to check with your doctor about what supplements you are taking and if they will have an effect on your medications. Typically, there is not an issue. If you experience any adverse reaction after introducing Collagen Native Type 2 into your daily routine, cease taking the product immediately.

Every person is different and it depends on how low collagen levels are in your body and how much collagen needs to be repaired and replaced. For some, this can be felt in mere weeks. While for others, usually older or those with underlying diseases like celiac or RA, it can take longer to see the results. Most people will see benefits after 1 or 2 months.

Of the collagen types, type 2 is among the most abundant in the body and is a key component in joints, ribs, eyes, and spine. Collagen Native Type 2 can also stimulate the production of both type 2 and type 1 collagen, found in skin, tendons, and bone.

Collagen Native Type 2 has not had its structure broken down but remains in its intact natural state known as ‘undenatured.’ Most collagens on the market are in ‘peptide’ form and have been broken down into smaller and less beneficial bits of protein through industrial chemical digestion. Our Collagen is gently extracted and processed so that Collagen Native Type 2 has more of the natural benefits to you that nature intended! We also source our collagen from bovine sources which are more similar to the natural collagen your body has.

Collagen is the most abundant protein found in the body. With age, our bodies natural ability to produce collagen decreases and we lose collagen from our tissues that use it such as joints, tendons and ligaments, skin, hair, nails, intestinal track, lung and blood vessels. Supplementing with Collagen Native Type 2 can help restore and rebuild the collagen your body has lost and help to repair the damage the tissues in your body have sustained from collagen loss and damage.

Collagen is one of the most abundant proteins in the body that acts as a structural binder in many tissues. It is found in skin, hair, nails, joints, tendons, ligaments, bone, lungs, blood vessels, almost everywhere in the body! As you age, collagen breaks down in these tissues and the body needs to repair them. The ability of the body to produce its own collagen decreases with age and supplementation with Collagen Native Type 2 provides the body with a source of collagen with which to repair these tissues. Collagen Native Type 2’s natural state also helps to trigger your body’s repair processes to speed up repair of collagen damage and loss
