COLLAGEN II
Type II collagen is the main
protein
building block of the cartilage in our joints...
Type II collagen (collagen type II) is the primary component of all of the cartilage in our body, particularly the subtype known as hyaline cartilage. Cartilage is the connective tissue pad that acts as a cushion and eliminates friction in your joints. These cushions are found in all the joints of the body, including the knees, elbows, and between the vertebrae in the spine. Natural healthcare practitioners use type II collagen to support healthy cartilage synthesis in the body. For more information, please see our Collagen article.
Aging and Cartillage Loss
As we age, our body's ability to make type II collagen decreases. At the same time loss of type II collagen from the cartilage decreases its integrity, making it less resilient. This type of degeneration is often associated with osteoarthritis, and is the reason we are more inclined to have "wear and tear" problems as we age. This loss of cartilage is accelerated by the presence of the stress hormone cortisol. Thus, stress reduction can help to protect the joint cartilage of the body.
Joint Wear and Osteoarthritis
Wear-and-tear injuries occur in the joint cartilage from overuse and cause less support, less cushioning and more friction. As a supplement collagen acts as a source of
amino acids
for use in making and repairing connective tissue all over the body. Supplementation with type II collagen can help to support proper cartilage synthesis and help to repair the degeneration associated with osteoarthritis. Type II collagen also has anti-inflammatory properties, which help the joint to repair itself after injury, and prevent inflammatory destruction. This can also be beneficial in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
How can I take type II collagen?
Type II collagen can be found as an encapsulated powder or liquid. It is commonly called hyaline cartilage when seen in supplements. In general, it is combined with other joint repairing nutrients and vitamins. Type II collagen is found as a component of both pain relieving and anti-inflammatory formulas. Collagen type I and III are also available and should be used after good results are found with type II to further rebuild damaged joints or tissue. For more information on their use, please see our Collagen Type I & III article. Depending on the severity of joint destruction collagen may need to be taken for a few months before results are seen.
