Essential AMIN.O. Energy Plus UC-II Collagen Description from Optimum Nutrition
Collagen is the main structural protein in the human body and is a major component of connective tissues like tendons and ligaments, and supports cartilage. As you age, your body processes less collagen. Hard workouts also put stress and strain on the body. Supplementing your diet with collagen may help support your joints.
AMIN.O. ENERGY + UC-II COLLAGEN offers a combination of 5 G of Amino Acids, 100 mg of Caffeine from natural sources and UC-II (contains undenatured type II collagen) to promote a healthy active lifestyle by supporting energy, focus, muscle recovery and healthy joints.
Added Vitamin C supports collagen synthesis and offers antioxidant support.
