Cyto Matrix Bone Collagen Powder 210g

Cyto Matrix Bone Collagen Powder 210g:

Helps in the development and maintenance of bones. Source of the essential amino acid lysine to help in collagen formation. Helps in tissue formation. Helps in the absorption and use of calcium and phosphorus. Helps to reduce joint pain associated with osteoarthritis. Calcium intake, when combined with sufficient vitamin D, a healthy diet and regular exercise, may reduce the risk of osteoporosis.

A source of naturally occurring amino acids. Essential: histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, valine. Non-Essential: alanine, arginine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, proline, serine, tyrosine.

Collagen comprises almost 30% of the total protein content in the human body and is the major structural component of the skeletal system. Recent evidence has suggested that the integrity of bone tissues can be maintained or improved by supplementing with the glycinerich protein blend. However, not all collagen is created equal. The molecular weight distribution of collagen particles and the specific amino acid sequences are paramount to clinical success. For example, certain collagen particles have been demonstrated to stimulate fibroblast activity and influence collagen production in the skin, while other collagen particles act on osteoblasts to promote bone health.

Bone Collagen contains a unique blend of type I and type III bovine collagen known as Fortibone®. Fortibone® is specifically designed to stimulate osteoblast activity, slow bone resorption and improve collagen production within the extracellular matrix of bone tissue. A double-blind, randomized human clinical trial found that 12 months of supplementation with Fortibone® collagen bioactive particles significantly increased bone mineral density of the spine and femoral necks of postmenopasaul women with osteopenia or osteoporosis.

Although specific collagen parts can have powerful and beneficial effects on skeletal tissue as a solo therapy, optimal bone health requires much more. Calcium, magnesium, vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 have unique and interconnected relationships that help to control calcium regulation and bone growth.

For example, vitamin D3 is needed for calcium absorption from the digestive tract, while magnesium is needed to activate enzymes related to vitamin D3 metabolism. In fact, individuals that are magnesium-replete are much less likely to be vitamin D3 deficient. Vitamin K2, on the other hand, is crucial for the proper distribution of calcium into the skeletal system and away from the cardiovascular system. It does this through its ability to activate two proteins, osteocalcin and matrix-GLA protein, thereby shunting calcium in the proper direction. As you can see, a deficiency in any one of these nutrients can disrupt the overall balance in the body and have a negative impact on bone health.

It is for this reason that Bone Collagen includes calcium, magnesium, vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 in addition to the highly stable and specific bioactive collagen to stimulate osteoblastic activity and promote bone health. These bioactive collagen is standardized to an average 5kDa molecular weight, are sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised cows to be free from unwanted additives. Calcium and magnesium are delivered in their bioavailable full-chelate bis-glycinate forms. Vitamin K2 is found as K2Vital®, the patented non-soy derived MK-7 that is microencapsulated with a starch bilayer for superior protection and stability. All in an easy-to-use powder delivery that mixes extremely well with minimal taste.
