Five types of collagen packed into one capsule: Types I, II, III, V, and X collagen peptides from patented and clinically studied animal collagen sources, combined with hyaluronic acid and vitamin C!
Our product contains one of the most sought-after ingredients of our time—collagen—yet it stands out among most collagen products on the market.
That’s because instead of offering just one type, we’ve packed a premium blend of Types I, II, III, V, and X collagen into each capsule! USA medical Collagen Complex with hyaluronic acid features collagen sources with clinically proven efficacy, including Solugel® bovine collagen, Naticol® fish collagen, and ChondrActiv™ chicken cartilage collagen—all in hydrolyzed form for better absorption and bioavailability. In addition, the formula is enriched with valuable hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, which is essential for the body’s own collagen production.
Did you know?
Everything you need to know about collagenThe word "collagen" comes from Greek and means "glue," which is quite telling of its function—it’s one of the body's most essential structural elements. Collagen is a complex protein made up of beneficial amino acids like glycine, alanine, and proline. Although the body does produce collagen, its natural production begins to decline in our late twenties. This can result in visible signs of aging—such as wrinkles and sagging skin—as well as joint pain. Since collagen plays a critical role in the health of our hair, skin, nails, muscles, and joints, it is vital to replenish declining levels with high-quality sources.
The Collagen Complex with vitamin C and hyaluronic acid is an ideal supplement for those who:- are young and regularly engage in sports or dance, even competitively, and want to stay fit and healthy under high physical stress
- think ahead and want to support the health of their joints, bones, muscles, and cartilage despite a sedentary or moderately active lifestyle
- work in physically demanding jobs
- are starting a new fitness journey or lifestyle change while overweight
- are living with insulin resistance, prediabetes, diabetes, or a high BMI
- strive for timeless beauty and healthy skin
- suffer from musculoskeletal conditions or limited mobility
- are proactive about their long-term health.
Hydrolyzed collagen for better absorptionHydrolysis involves breaking down the original formula with water, making it easier and faster for the body to digest. In collagen's case, the molecule is broken down into smaller units and then transformed from liquid into powder before encapsulation for easy dosing and intake.
Types of collagen peptides found in USA medical Collagen ComplexMany collagen supplements only contain 1, 2, or 3 types of peptides. In contrast, USA medical Collagen Complex includes 5 types. The differences between these types lie in their bioavailability, structure, and sources.
Type I CollagenTypes I and III are the most common and often grouped together due to similar functions. Type I collagen is found almost everywhere in the body—except the cartilage. It's primarily present in skin, bones, tendons, and ligaments, as well as the cornea and blood vessel walls. It makes up 95% of the collagen in bones and 80% of their total protein content. Bovine and fish collagen—both found in this product—are rich sources of Type I collagen.
Type II CollagenUnlike Types I and III, Type II is mainly found in cartilage, making up 50–60% of its protein content and 90% of its collagen. It's also present in the vitreous humor (the gel-like substance between the retina and lens of the eye) and intervertebral discs. Chicken is the best source of Type II collagen, also included in this supplement.
Type III CollagenOften paired with Type I, Type III is rich in glycine, proline, and glutamine. It can be found in artery walls and hollow organs and is sometimes referred to as reticular fiber. Beyond bovine and fish peptides, it's also present in bone marrow and liver.
Type V CollagenType V collagen is found in the bone matrix, cornea, and connective tissue. It supports the structure of Type I collagen in bones, muscles, lungs, and liver and is rich in arginine and proline.
Type X CollagenThis network-forming collagen is found in hypertrophic chondrocytes in cartilage, particularly in the articular cartilage of long bones.
After learning about the ingredients of Collagen Complex,
it’s clear that collagen can help provide your body with essential building blocks for the optimal function of joints, bones, cartilage, hair, and skin. With its wide range of benefits, collagen supplementation is appealing to all age groups!
