Healthy Origins UC-II 40 mg (Undenatured Type II Collagen, Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Joint Support), 60 Veggie Caps

The first Saturday in April of 2024, I woke & couldn't take any weight on my left knee, which swelled horribly & eventually, over 6 months, the ligament tore. I'd noticed about a year earlier I developed crepitus in my knees. My right knee also began hurting, some days pretty significantly, and I was really afraid it would become like my left knee. Two days later, realizing I wasn't going to make it over the weekend to see my own PCP, my husband took me to the ER. The ER doc did tell me that he couldn't do an MRI bc (and isn't this wrong) Medicare wouldn't pay unless ordered by another doctor, but he & the head of Radiology both agreed I'd never need a knee replacement. Two days later, the Ortho doc told me I needed both knees replaced. Hey, why not! I was a 67-yr old lady--that's what I'd expect...right? WRONG! I know of NO ONE who wakes up overnight & needs knees replaced! A friend suggested another supplement for joint support, which did nothing at all! Then, a new friend suggested Type II Collagen. I did a little research & found that denatured collagen is best. Literally within 2-3 days the crepitus was almost gone, and it was gone within a week! My right knee, which I thoroughly believed was going to become as bad as my left, I now have hope that it will not! Furthermore, when I do get up & walk, I realize--oh my gosh, I only have pain in my left knee! My right knee almost never has pain! You cannot realize what a huge & significant difference this is! I am a person who truly & deeply believe that God put everything on this earth that we need for good health. I feel that it is a horrible shame that the Orthopedic doc & even the ER doc didn't give me compression sleeves for my knees & recommend Type II Collagen! I HIGHLY recommend this supplement! I cannot recommend it highly enough! It is really GOOD! I know I have a long way to go & am not sure how much improvement I will see because of how many months I went without. I find myself wondering if I should even take a higher doseage, but I probably won't--at least until I can talk to my own doctor. I am SO grateful I found this! ❤️ Oh, they're easy to swallow at a good size & there is no taste to them.

I’ve been using Healthy Origins UC-II for a few months now, and I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my joint comfort and mobility. The 40 mg dosage in a single capsule is convenient, and the product is third-party tested, which adds to my confidence in its quality. Healthy Origins has a solid reputation for producing reliable supplements, and this product lives up to that standard. Highly recommended for anyone looking to support their joint health.

I'm taking a couple versions of this but this one seem to be the best price value. I hurt my knee over a year ago and had pain for about a year after I started taking UCI to I no longer have knee pain.

I give these to my dog and it seems to help his joints.

The directions suggest taking this before bed at night; I know that collagen supplements in any form (tablet, capsule, liquid) tend to do best on an empty stomach and away from eating, so that the digestion juices in one's stomach don't deactivate its "super powers." This particular type of collagen UC-II, has some interesting clinical research behind it for joint health; as a former and intense athlete, this really means something to me. I am still quite active and have changed many aspects of my lifestyle, most especially my diet (WFPB) and am in better shape and with more balanced, targeted strength than in the previous decade! So, yes, this supplement is part of a lifestyle and is NOT a silver bullet fix-it-all-with-a-pill sort of "answer." That being said, I think it can be a very helpful addition/input to your health and strength routine. Also, this specific brand is consistently accurate with all of its offerings when it comes to labeling and quality. This brand's UC-II, which is what I'm reviewing here, was selected as a "Top Pick" by an independent testing lab and has maintained that distinction for some time now. I believe that it has helped my joints tremendously over the past four or five years of taking it every night. To be honest, there is no cloned-me to compare (as if I had a reference for NOT taking it) but given the aftermath pain I used to have, and the trouble with working out or exercising or recreating at a certain intensity in past years... I truly think this has helped a ton. As long as they continue making it? I'm taking it.

I use these to support my dogs joints and I definitely notice when I've run out. A great supplement for senior pets.

Dice 120 capsulas y son solo 90

I got this bc it's Consumer Lab's (agency that tests for heavy metals and if dose matches label, chooses best passing product with lowest cost) top pick for this type of collagen, which is proven in all studies to reduce joint pain. In some studies it's proven to build collagen back and/or prevent loss. I'm hitting perimenopause and have shoulder joint pain and frozen shoulder is a perimenopause issue bc women lose 30% of their collagen in the first 5yrs of menopause. I also drink collagen and rub estrogen cream on the shoulder daily but after 3wks the pain got sporadic then went away. I'm not sure which product is responsible or if it's everything but I'm glad. Thank you for making this affordable.

Excelente produto, fiz recompra e estou gostando bastante

I have been taking UC-II for 2-3 years now and it's a much effective supplement than Glucosamine. I practice Japanese martial arts for years and kneeling or jumping up from a kneeling position etc. is a common feature of the art. I can tell and feel the difference in my knees in terms of 'less tightness and discomfort'. UC-II also improves my knees' flexibility somewhat.

Lo compré porque el veterinario homeópata me lo recomendó para mi perrito y la verdad es una maravilla, le ha ayudado 100%

It is good, and it does work! I'm happy with this product! Yes, I recommend it to!

There was too much of swelling and pain in legs specially near knees, tried everything from medicines to oils but nothing worked. This supplement showed positive results within 14 days. Highly recommended for knees pain
