Collagen is a fibrous material composed of amino acids/proteins. The body uses it as a structural component of skin, tendon, ligament, bone, cartilage, organs, joints, muscle, hair and all other connective and soft tissues. It is also found in "liquid" tissues of the body such as blood, lymph, and the vitreous humour of the eye. At times when the supply of collagen is compromised, the body is weakened. Problems that may occur include fatigue, aches, pains, inflammation, lack of stamina, pre-mature aging, etc. These difficulties continue to worsen as the aging process continues and are categorized into many various medical conditions. Some of the most common include osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, disc bulge/herniation, joint disorders, muscle conditions and even nervous system conditions. Collagen is required for repair and growth for nearly every tissue of the human body. It is especially vital during repair from injury and stress.
There are 5 different types of collagen that represent the majority of all collagen types.
They have different roles at the metabolic level.
In the human body we can find:
Type I: Bones, tendons, ligaments and skin
Type II: Cartilage and structure of the eyes
Type III: Liver, lungs and arteries
Type IV: Kidneys and many other internal organs
Type V: Cells surfaces, hair and placenta
When using Genacol, it is best to take this in the evening before bedtime. It is usually within the first hour of sleep that the body is mobilizing the healing components. Thus, collagen is called upon at this time. If collagen is not available, the body must substitute or do without.
