Macánta Nutrition - Joint Complex with UC11® Collagen
To help you further understand our new Joint Complex product we have put together some of the frequently asked questions.
1. What is UC-II® collagen, and how does it benefit joint health?
UC-II® is a patented form of undenatured type II collagen. It helps support joint health by promoting the repair and maintenance of cartilage. The additional ingredients in the complex also help reduce inflammation and improve joint flexibility and mobility.
2. How is UC-II® different from other types of collagen supplements on the market?
Unlike Type 1 hydrolysed collagen like our Collagen Peptides product, UC-II® is undenatured, meaning it retains its native structure. This active structure allows it to interact with the immune system in a way that helps reduce joint inflammation and supports cartilage repair and growth more effectively.
3. How long does it take to see results with this Joint Complex with UC11® Collagen?
Some users may start noticing improvements in joint comfort and flexibility within a few weeks, while others might take up to 90 days for significant results, every individual is different. Consistent use is key to achieving optimal benefits.
4. I am on a statin and blood pressure medication can I take this product?
Yes, Joint Complex with UC-II® collagen can be taken with these medications. With existing health conditions, it is always recommended to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new supplement. Those on blood thinners should consult with their doctors before use.
5. Can Joint Complex with UC-II® collagen be taken alongside other joint care products like Glucosamine?
Yes, this product can be taken with other joint care supplements such as glucosamine. However, we feel that this complex with UC11® collagen is more effective with increased joint function, mobility and flexibility. This has been shown in an osteoarthritis study (See Study details) comparing UC11® and glucosamine.
6. Can I take more than one capsule of Joint Complex with UC-II® collagen per day for a greater benefit?
There is no need to take more as studies show no greater benefit is seen with higher amounts of UC11® collagen. This is a very unique complex in the joint care field which allows for a one a day product.
7. Should I take Joint Complex with UC-II® collagen with meals?
No, It is recommended to take this product at night to support the absorption of the UC11® collagen.
8. What benefits do I get from the other ingredients in this Joint Complex ?
