What is Collagen?
Collagen is present in all multi-cellular organisms. It is the fibrous structural protein that makes up the white fibers (collagen fibers) of skin, tendons, cartilage, and all other connective tissues. Collagen is the natural protein that constitutes most of the body's structural support and is the primary substance of connective tissue. It is this fibrous connective tissue that holds our body together.
Why is collagen necessary for youth and health?
Collagen is naturally produced by the body. It is vital to the body's functioning because it is the tie that binds. It makes up the body's joints, muscles, hair, skin, tendons and ligaments. It provides structure to our body and forms the molecular cables that strengthen the tendons. Collagen makes up the vast resilient sheets that support our skin and internal organs. Bones and teeth are formed when the body adds mineral crystal to the body's collagen.
Collagen fibers are woven together like pieces of fabric to form a network in which new cells grown and reproduce. Any time the body needs to build new cells, such as in healing or growing process, collagen pays the central role.

Collagen is the structure, the molecule that weaves our skin together

What is the difference between collagen and glucosamine?
In the composition of cartilage 67% is collagen versus 1% glucosamine. Glucosamine is an aminosaccharide contrary to collagen which is a molecule containing amino acids. Glucosamine acts more like a lubricant in the joints while collagen contributes to the global regeneration of the joint at all levels: tendons, ligaments, cartilage, muscles, membranes and synovial liquid.
What's the difference between Genacol and other products such as those containing Type ll collagen?
Genacol is a matrix generated by a procedure called Aminolock Sequence Technology developed by DirectLab Inc. This matrix stems from a complex procedure which promotes many types of collagen, thus making it a far more complete product than ones using only Type ll collagen.
Under which other conditions would it be interesting to take Genacol?
Besides arthritis, osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia, Genacol can be used in causes of tendonitis, bursitis, hernia, carpal tunnel syndrome and all other auto-immune diseases as well as for aesthetic purposes such as toning the skin and muscles. Generally speaking, Genacol can be used in cases of articular and muscular pain, as well as to help hydrates and tone the skin.
