Description
Why is it that anything is usually weakest where it bends? This also applies to human beings and their joints‚ too. With Achilles‚ it was his infamous heel. While his may be an extreme example‚ we've all felt the pain of an over-stressed knee‚ shoulder‚ or elbow. We've all overdone things one day‚ only to feel creaky and a bit more fragile than usual the next. Even professional athletes commonly fall victim to joint-related injuries.
Our joints—the bendy parts—may be one of the weakest parts of our bodies‚ but they are also one of the most important. We depend on healthy‚ fully functioning joints for almost everything we do‚ and certainly for every movement we perform. It's important to give your joints and connective tissues the materials they need in order to keep functioning at peak ability. One of the most vital materials your body uses to form joint and connective tissue is collagen.
Collagen is the most plentiful protein found in the human body. It’s primarily used by your body in the formation of joint‚ connective‚ and skin tissue‚ but is also found in muscle tissue‚ as well as in the lenses and cornea of your eyes. Wrinkling and decreased joint flexibility with age are due in part to the natural reduction in collagen production that occurs during the aging process.
Allergy Research Group’s Arthred® Collagen Formula is a specially formulated dietary collagen supplement that supports healthy joint function—in addition to general health throughout your body—as you get older. Each serving of this powdered formula contains 10.5 grams of hydrolyzed collagen‚ in addition to a composition of amino acids that help your body produce collagen.
One 240g package of Arthred® will last you approximately 22 days when taken at the recommended dosage of two tablespoons once daily.
