Marine Collagen with Glucosamine & Boswellia, 60 capsules - Herbin

Herbin Marine Collagen with Glucosamine and Boswellia is a food supplement in capsule form, designed for adults who want to combine several well-known joint and connective tissue ingredients in a single convenient dose. One pack contains 60 capsules — a two-month serving when taken as one capsule per day after a meal.

The formula brings together four active components that complement each other:

• Hydrolysed marine collagen Naticol® 4000 (100 mg) — collagen sourced from fish and broken down into smaller peptides through hydrolysis, which makes the protein fragments easier for the body to absorb. Collagen is the main structural protein of skin, tendons, cartilage and bones.
• D-glucosamine sulfate (253.5 mg) — an aminosugar derived from crustaceans. Glucosamine is one of the natural building blocks the body uses to produce glycosaminoglycans, components found in cartilage and synovial fluid.
• Vitamin C (80 mg, 100% NRV) — the only nutrient in the formula with an approved EU health claim relevant here: vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of bones and cartilage. It is also needed for the body's own collagen synthesis from amino acids.
• Boswellia serrata resin extract (30 mg) — the resin of the Indian frankincense tree, traditionally used in Ayurveda for centuries. It contains boswellic acids, plant compounds that have drawn attention in modern research on connective tissue.

This combination is most often chosen by physically active adults, people who spend long hours on their feet, those returning to sport after a break, and the 40+ age group who notice that joints and skin feel different than before. Capsules are a practical format for travel and for people who dislike the taste of collagen powders. A typical regimen is one capsule taken consistently with a meal over several weeks, since results from collagen and glucosamine supplements build up gradually rather than appearing overnight.

Please remember that a food supplement does not replace a varied and balanced diet or a healthy lifestyle. The product is not suitable for people allergic to fish or crustaceans. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking prescription medication or have a chronic condition, consult your doctor or pharmacist before use, and do not exceed the recommended intake.
