"I take ARTRON COLLAGEN liquid supplements daily, often in the morning or afternoon as part of my workout. I've noticed improved joint mobility, and I feel less stiff and more flexible." I find taking ARTRON COLLAGEN encourages me to be more active and work out more regularly"
The Role of Collagen in Supporting Joint Performance and Mobility
Hydrolysed Bovine Collagen is a powerful ally in promoting joint performance and mobility. This bioactive protein formed by small peptides that are easily absorbed, supports the structural integrity of cartilage, tendons, and ligaments by stimulating collagen synthesis in connective tissues through the activation of chondrocytes, the cells responsible for cartilage repair and regeneration.
Regular supplementation has been shown to enhance joint comfort, flexibility, and resilience, particularly for individuals with active lifestyles or age-related joint concerns.
Minerva’s scientific evidence:
- Our 2021 Journal of Plastic and Aesthetic Research article emphasizes the role of collagen throughout life stages, reinforcing its importance in maintaining connective tissue health, including joints. (1)
- Our 2018 Nutrition Research study confirms that daily oral supplementation with collagen peptides, enriched with vitamins and bioactive compounds, not only improves skin elasticity but also enhances joint health and overall well-being. (2)
- Insights from our 2016 Textbook of Aging Skin underscore collagen's innovative nutraceutical potential, showing its effectiveness in supporting musculoskeletal health alongside anti-ageing benefits. (3)
The Role of Collagen in Easing Joint Pain
Joint pain can be life-altering, affecting mobility and daily comfort for millions worldwide. Whether caused by osteoarthritis, injuries, or the natural wear and tear of ageing, finding effective ways to manage this discomfort is essential. Collagen, a key protein in our connective tissues, has emerged as a valuable solution for supporting joint health and reducing pain.
How Collagen Helps Your Joints:
Collagen is like the glue that holds your joints together. As we age or experience stress on our joints, the natural production of collagen declines, leading to weaker cartilage and joint discomfort. Supplementing with hydrolysed collagen can help delay this process by providing the building blocks needed to rebuild cartilage, improve mobility, and reduce pain.
FORTIGEL® B
Where Do We Source Our Bovine Collagen?
Since the beginning of ARTRON COLLAGEN®, we have partnered with a global pioneer in premium bovine collagen peptides with more than 150 years of expertise. Renowned for innovation and trusted quality, they deliver versatile collagen solutions across functional nutrition, advanced skincare, and pharmaceutical applications.
With a legacy built on over 50 published clinical trials, they continue to shape the future of collagen science. Together, through their world-class research and our clinical expertise, we remain committed to developing specialised, evidence-backed solutions that push the limitations of science and set new standards in health and wellbeing.
FORTIGEL® B is produced from high-quality bovine skin responsibly sourced from the meat industry. Each batch undergoes a carefully controlled process to ensure safety, quality, and respect for animals. The bovine raw material is carefully processed to extract and enzymatically hydrolyse the collagen into highly bioactive peptides designed for easy absorption. The resulting collagen peptides are then purified and dried, with full traceability from source to finished product.
This innovative approach includes recycling natural byproducts from production to nourish the soil, reduce waste, and create an eco-friendly product you can trust. This meticulous process yields clinically proven, sustainable collagen peptides that deliver optimal bioactivity, absorption, and performance.
Publications about Collagen and Joint Pain:
- A scientific review found that collagen supplements improve bone density and joint health, reduce osteoarthritis symptoms, and help maintain joint function and integrity. (4)
- In one study, 81% of participants taking hydrolysed collagen experienced pain relief, while their physical function improved by 300%. (5)
- Athletes taking collagen for activity-related joint pain showed a 200%–300% reduction in pain during walking, standing, and rest over 24 weeks. (6)
- Collagen peptides significantly improved ankle stability and reduced injuries in athletes with 96% reporting fewer sprains and 92% reducing injuries. (7)
