* Clinical Studies on Collagen Pro-Active
Arquel-Porcell, P. Pujol-Amat (1996)
Study on the action of a nutritional supplement that focuses on joint pain produced by osteoarthritis or joint aging in a population who regularly performs low-intensity exercise.
The results of this study showed that test compound, which was well accepted and safe, improved the subjective and objective response to mobility and pain relief in 84.2% of subjects.
More specifically, the results obtained, show the action of test compound inducing a gradual and statistically significant decrease in the number of patients with strong and moderate pain, which became slight along the study duration. Rigidity on starting movement decreased considerably in moderate or severe rigidity groups in respect to assessment at baseline. All the patients reported that the performance of their sports / recreational activity was much easier, especially because of a decrease of joint rigidity and mobility pain.
No side-effects were observed to the patients during or after the study.
J. Ll. Ribas, O. Molinero (1998)
Study on the effect of a nutritional supplement with gelatin hydrolysates that focuses on the prevention of sport injury.
The administration of a daily dose of gelatine hydrolysate (10 g) enriched with vitamin B complex and magnesium for 6 months significantly increased the articular cartilage thickness of scapulohumeral joint and femorotibial joint. A 14% average increase was observed in treated patients.
These results indicated that the long-term dosing of a gelatine hydrolysate enriched with vitamin B complex and magnesium to sportsmen and sportswomen may be useful in the prevention of joint injury.
