Our collagen for joints and cartilage
In an ageing society, aching joints and bones are a widespread disease.
With the help of our collagen for joints and cartilage, joint cartilage can be protected and regenerated in a natural way. The bioactive collagen peptides have been specially developed to stimulate the synthesis of new cartilage mass. Collagen for joints thus helps us to remain active and mobile.
Why collagen for joints and cartilage?
-
Cartilage = collagen
Accounting for around 70% of the dry matter of the connective tissue in our body, collagen is a crucial building block for healthy cartilage. It forms the structural basis of cartilage tissue and ensures strength, elasticity and structural maintenance. To put it simply: without sufficient collagen, cartilage cannot function - the result is painful joints.
-
Joint pain - a widespread disease
The wear and tear of cartilage tissue is a natural part of the ageing process. Unfortunately, this often leads to people avoiding exercise. Yet physical activity and movement are crucial for supplying the cartilage with fluid and nutrients. Immobility accelerates cartilage degradation, which in turn leads to more pain.
-
Natural protection and regeneration
The regular synthesis of new cartilage mass is crucial for the preservation of joint cartilage. This is where our collagen for joints comes in. The bioactive collagen peptides have been specially developed to stimulate the synthesis of new cartilage mass. By taking collagen, the necessary building blocks for the synthesis of new cartilage cells can be provided. In this way, our collagen joint complex can contribute to the protection and regeneration of cartilage in a natural way.
-
Mobility and pain relief
The regular intake of collagen can help to make joints more supple and movements less painful. In studies, many patients report noticeably less pain and improved mobility after just a few weeks. This can help people with osteoarthritis, joint problems or age-related cartilage wear in particular.
Natural, clean and pure
Ingredients: 100% patented collagen peptides - specially optimized for joints and cartilage. Only the pure product, no other additives - our promise to you.

Bioactive peptides vs. simple collagen
Not all collagen is the same. "Simple" collagen is obtained as a strand from animal raw material by hydrolysis. The special feature of our bioactive collagen peptides is that they are optimised for their physiological properties through so-called enzymatic hydrolysis. Our collagen joint complex produces collagen peptides that are optimised to stimulate the so-called chondrocytes. Chondrocytes are specialised cells found in cartilage tissue. Put simply, chondrocytes are the architects of joint health. They play a central role in maintaining the integrity and functionality of our joints. Collagen for Joints supplies these cells with typical collagen amino acids as valuable building blocks and also stimulates cell synthesis. As a result, collagen effectively supports joint health.

Clinical studies confirm efficacy
The effectiveness of the collagen for joints and cartilage has been proven by several clinical studies with different focal points:
- Relief of joint pain and improvement of mobility (study: Clark et al., 2008)
- Reduction of knee joint pain and improvement of mobility (study: Zdzieblik et al., 2017)
- Structural improvement of cartilage tissue in early-onset osteoarthritis of the knee joints (study: McAlindon et al., 2011)
An overview of all relevant studies on collagen and joints & cartilage can be found on our dedicated studies page.

Positive long-term effect for osteoarthritis
A long-term study over 48 weeks confirms the positive long-term effect of collagen for joints and cartilage. In early-onset osteoarthritis of the knee joints, the study demonstrated a structural improvement in cartilage tissue (study: McAlindon et al., 2011). Collagen powder for joints is therefore suitable for regenerating cartilage tissue in osteoarthritis and other joint complaints such as hip or knee pain.

Healthy joints for athletes and convalescents
Athletes often put their joints under a lot of strain, whether through intensive training sessions or by taking part in competitions. Collagen can help athletes to improve their performance by supporting the joints and improving their resilience. It can also help prevent injuries by increasing joint stability and speeding up recovery after training.
After injuries or orthopaedic operations, fast and effective regeneration is crucial. Collagen plays an important role in the formation of new tissue and the repair of damaged tissue, which can support the healing process. It can help reduce the formation of scar tissue and maintain joint flexibility during recovery.

Study: Reduction of joint pain in athletes
Study: “24-Week study on the use of collagen hydrolysate as a dietary supplement in athletes with activity-related joint pain”
Authors: Kristine L. Clark, Wayne Sebastianelli, Klaus R. Flechsenhar, Douglas F. Aukermann, Felix Meza, Roberta L. Millard, John R. Deitch, Paul S. Sherbondy, Ann Albert
Published in: Current Medical Research and Opinion
Publication date: April 15, 2008
Number of participants: 97
Duration: 24 weeks
Results and conclusions: The study showed an improvement in joint pain in athletes treated with the dietary supplement collagen hydrolyzate. There were statistically significant changes in six parameters compared to placebo: joint pain at rest, joint pain when walking, joint pain when standing, joint pain when carrying objects and joint pain when lifting.

FAQs about joint collagen
What is collagen?
Collagen is a vital protein in the body. It is one of the building blocks of skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, muscles, hair, nails and cartilage.
Why supplement collagen?
The body's own collagen production decreases with age. On average, from the age of 25, the amount of collagen in the skin decreases by almost 2% per year. At the age of 60, most people have around 80% less collagen in their skin than at the age of 25.
Why collagen for joints and cartilage?
As we get older, more and more people suffer from joint problems. The main reason for this is the wear and tear of joint cartilage caused by age or stress. Collagen makes up almost 70% of the cartilage mass. This is precisely where the Joint Komplex product comes in. The specially optimized collagen peptides have been proven to promote the new growth of joint cartilage by stimulating cells that make the joints flexible and supple and relieve joint pain.
Why take Kollagen Institut collagen?
Our product is specially developed for the needs of joints and cartilage, 100% natural, of the highest quality and of real effectiveness - scientifically proven.
How quickly will I start to see results?
Many studies have investigated the effectiveness of the patented peptides. In some studies, the first results were seen after just 3 weeks, in others much later.
In general, results vary based on metabolism, consistency, health, and age.
Consistency with your supplement regimen is key for optimal outcomes.
