100% Collagen:

Extract from South, J. "Collagen Type II Shown to Reverse Skin and Joint Aging" (Vitamin Research News, Aug 06)

"Aging is the common lot of all humanity.  We are born.  We live.  We get older.  We die.  Yet some people age slowly, gracefully and healthfully, while others age rapidly, with accompanying pain and debility.

Many factors contribute to our 'rate of aging': our genes, our hormone levels, our diet and exercise patterns, drug, alcohol and tobacco abuse, etc.

Moskowitz notes: 'The positive effect of the oral administration of collagen on skin and organs attached to the skin has been observed for some time.  These positive effects include improvement in nail quality; an effect on the properties of hair and nail growth; and in veterinary studies, improvement in hair and hoof quality and growth.'

Dr Nelson Novick is a practicing M.D., and associate clinical professor of dermatology at The Mount Sinai School of Medicine, as well as a dermatology clinic chief at The Mount Sinai Medical Center.  In a recent article on 'Tips for at-home anti-aging skin care,' he commented on the usefulness of type II collagen for promoting youthful skin.  'I recommend daily oral supplementation with collagen.'

'This dietary supplement provides the only natural and bioavailable source needed to maintain skin moisture and elasticity.  This complex concentrated matrix of elements, formerly only available to plastic surgeons as injectable drugs, not only halts the appearance of skin aging, but also potentially reverses the aging process altogether.  This supplement is not a short-term solution, such as the use of injectable collagen; rather it is a necessary part of any regimen intended for life-long skin tissue health.'"
