A joint-focused collagen supplement featuring a high dose of UC-II for targeted joint relief, but the proprietary blend lacks transparency and the UC-II dose may be higher than necessary.
This product contains 80mg of UC-II, a patented form of undenatured Type II collagen known for its efficacy in modulating immune responses related to joint comfort at lower doses (typically 40mg). The 1200mg of hydrolyzed collagen provides general structural support, and the 400mg Proprietary Joint Blend, while of unknown composition, aims to further support joint health. While the UC-II dose is substantial, doubling the typical clinical dose for undenatured collagen doesn't necessarily confer double the benefit and can increase cost. The product's primary strength lies in its specific joint support, with less direct contribution to other listed goals.
- Contains UC-II undenatured collagen, a highly effective and clinically researched ingredient for joint health.
- Includes a good dose of general hydrolyzed collagen for broad connective tissue support.
- Specifically targets joint health, as indicated by its name and key ingredients.
- The UC-II dose of 80mg is double the generally recommended and clinically effective 40mg, potentially increasing cost without commensurate benefit.
- The 'Proprietary Joint Blend' lacks transparency, with undisclosed specific ingredients and quantities.
- Higher price per serving ($0.74) compared to simpler or equally effective joint solutions.
- Lower review count suggests less widespread adoption or newer market entry.

Categories
Collagen 80.0
It offers both undenatured (UC-II) and hydrolyzed collagen, providing a dual approach to collagen benefits, particularly for joint health, making it a specialized choice within the collagen category.
Goals
Joint Health 90.0
The inclusion of UC-II, a highly effective and patented ingredient for joint comfort and mobility, combined with hydrolyzed collagen, makes this product very strong for joint health.
Skin Health 60.0
While hydrolyzed collagen has some skin benefits, the primary focus of this product is joint health with UC-II, and it lacks specific skin-enhancing nutrients found in more targeted beauty supplements.
Bone Health 60.0
Collagen is a foundational protein for bones, but this supplement does not contain the high levels of calcium, vitamin D, or other minerals crucial for direct bone density and strength.
