A major raw material in the bone and joint health market, non-denatured type II collagen

2021/10/27

When it comes to bone and joint health, in addition to glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, there is also a family of raw materials, talented people who care for the tenderness of the skin and care about the health of the joints, and it is the collagen.

 

Global sales data of joint supplements tell us that new ingredients, including non-denatured type II collagen, are becoming more and more popular with consumers.

Simply put, type I and type III collagen are mainly found in connective tissues such as skin blood vessels, and type II collagen is primarily produced by cartilage cells and has a dense fibrous structure. Therefore, it is mainly found in bones, joints, and joints. Tissues such as tendons are the most critical organic components in the cartilage matrix. They are the characteristic proteins of cartilage tissue and can be closely combined with polysaccharides to make cartilage flexible, absorb shocks, and bear loads.

 

 

According to whether the complete triple helix structure is maintained, type II collagen can be divided into denatured type II collagen and undenatured type II collagen. Among them, denatured type II collagen: the triple helix structure is damaged to varying degrees, and its biocompatibility and immune activity will be significantly reduced. If the triple helix structure is seriously injured, even affecting the rupture of peptide bond, type II collagen will ultimately lose its binding characteristics with polysaccharides and other molecules, lose biological activity, and be absorbed and utilized by the body like ordinary protein. Non denatured type II collagen: it maintains a complete triple helix structure, has good biocompatibility and low antigenicity, induces human immune tolerance with appropriate concentration of undenatured type II collagen, and can prevent or alleviate osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It is found that undenatured type II collagen is effective at 40 mg/day; Hydrolyzed collagen needs 10g / day. Many studies have shown that undenatured type II collagen can significantly improve the bones and joints of animals and humans.

 

According to the relevant opinion of the National Health and Family Planning Commission in 2016: undenatured type II collagen (also renamed cartilage powder containing type II collagen) can be used for the production and operation of ordinary food. It uses chicken breast cartilage as raw material. After washing, disinfection, and crushing, potassium chloride is added, and under low-temperature conditions, The collagen-containing cartilage powder is obtained after drying.

 

 

With the increasing aging of our country, the number of patients with osteoarthritis will increase significantly, and the demand for bone and joint health will gradually become younger. Therefore, there is an urgent need for functional raw materials for bone and joint health. Furthermore, strengthening joint health, relieving joint pain, promoting joint flexibility, and improving the quality of life and physical and mental health of osteoarthritis patients will become a revolutionary functional raw material for bone and joint health, and the market development prospects are broad.
