A recent study published in the International Journal of Medical Sciences, indicates that UC-II, from InterHealth Nutraceuticals, significantly reduces pain, stiffness and immobility associated with osteoarthritis.
In this randomized, double-blind, 90-day study, researchers discovered that 40 mg of UC-II undenatured type II collagen was more than twice as effective as 1500 mg of glucosamine + 1200 mg of chondroitin. Decrease in joint pain, stiffness and immobility were measured by three indexes for osteoarthritis: WOMAC, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Lequesne. UC-II significantly reduced WOMAC by 33%, VAS by 40% and Lequesne by 20% compared to 14%, 15% and 6%, respectively, with glucosamine + chondroitin. For further information: www.interhealthusa.com
