Collagen is the most abundant structural protein found in the skin and connective tissues of the body. Over time, factors such as age, lifestyle, genetics, previous injury, inflammation and biomechanical instability can lead to the breakdown of collagen and slow the process of healthy collagen synthesis. Foundations Collagen includes three clinically studied ingredients to support the natural healing process and maintain connective tissue structure. Most therapies simply block joint pain and connective tissue discomfort from exercise, and in doing so inhibit the regeneration and elongation of specific polysaccharide precursors and deplete nutrients, such as magnesium and vitamin C, that maintain joint and connective tissue health. FORTIGEL®, Tendaxion® and Mobilee® may help protect and preserve cartilage, tendons, ligaments, fascia, bone and the intervertebral discs of the spine.
