We tend to think of Osteoarthritis OA, as a degenerative disease which occurs as you get older and is inevitable, a consequence of wear and tear, not helped by being overweight, which puts added stress on our joints. The treatment used by the NHS is not really “treatment”. By this I mean it deals with the symptoms and not the cause. Painkillers do nothing to stop the degeneration happening. All drugs come with their side-effects and surgery carries great risk.
More and more scientific evidence suggests that collagen hydrolysate stimulates the collagen synthesisof chondrocytes thereby helping to renew the bone tissue and minimize the pain caused by the OA.
Research has been carried out by Steffen Oesser PhD of the University of Kiel, Germany which concludes that collagen which is absorbed via the intestine and accumulates in the joint cartilage has the potential to stimulate collagen in the remaining chondrocytes in patients with OA, which reverses the degenerative condition of OA and may even prevent it developing.
Collagen hydrolysate is a food, not a pharmaceutical drug. It has no undesirable side effects and therefore long-term use is safe, Dr Oesser suggests.
