Collagen 2

Details: NeoCell offers a variety of ways to get the various types of collagen our bodies need.  As we age, our bodies slow way down in the ability to make collagen.  Collagen is what helps keeps our skin, nails, hair, joints, ligaments, tendons, bones, muscles, etc., all nice and lubricated.  Collagen is "the glue that holds the body together."  Collagen is a vital ingredient our body needs.

As discussed in our post on how Collagen strengthens hair and nails, there are various types of collagen.  This post is about Collagen Type 2.  This is the protein needed to maintain and to rebuild cartilage tissue.  Neocell's Collagen Type 2 is a complete joint supplement containing glucosamine, chondroitin and hyaluronic acid.  All key ingredients to help support joint  health and strength.

Review: My dh has frozen shoulder.  He injured his shoulder over a year ago during a softball game.  Before he regained full use of the mobility in his shoulder, he injured the other one doing the same thing.  Now he can barely lift his hands above his head, and sometimes has difficulty getting his tshirts on and off.

When we discovered NeoCell, we were both excited to have him try the Collagen Type 2.  It's been about 3 weeks since he started taking the capsules.  Just 4 a day on an empty stomach and with Vitamin C.  It took about 1 1/2 weeks before he started to notice a difference.  I no longer needed to help him get his tshirts on, and on rare occasions I have to help him take them off.

We've set up a bench mark to track his progress.  Each week he is able to move his shoulders more and more.  There isn't a very fast or dramatic change that has taken place, it is slow and gradual, but the Collagen Type 2 is working. Needless to say, dh is very excited about the progress.

Other benefits he has noticed, his hair is growing faster and thicker, and the gray is disappearing. (He'll never need to worry about having those aging balding spots.)

Pros:  Collagen Type 2 is doing exactly what we were hoping it would do, in allowing my dh arms and shoulders to move more freely than before.  Check out our positive post here about NeoCell collagen 1 & 3.

Cons:  None that we can see.
