Do a variety of exercise

Yes, you may be active but make sure you’re keeping things varied.
That’s because doing different types of exercise is important for maintaining healthy joints, especially stretching and yoga which improve flexibility, balance and coordination. Remember to always consult with your doctor before embarking on a new exercise regime.

Drink plenty of water

Your body is composed of over 60% water. Because of this, staying hydrated is essential for your health, including maintaining your joints.
Water is part of the fluid that helps lubricate and cushion your joints and cartilage. This prevents your bones from rubbing together and causing chronic pain. Aim to drink at least 2 litres of water per day. Keep it super simple and cost-effective by drinking filtered tap water.

Concentrate on collagen

Collagen is a type of protein that’s vital in providing structural support throughout your body, including within bones, joints and muscles. Essentially, think of collagen as the ‘glue’ that holds your body together.

Scientific evidence shows the body’s ability to produce collagen declines with age; you begin to break down collagen faster than you can replace it. Supplementing with collagen may therefore help protect your joints as
you get older.

For the best quality ingredients without any added nasties, our Advanced Collagen capsules contain 1050mg of premium type 1 marine collagen and are free from GMOs or artificial colours.

We’re proud to be British and therefore manufacture our capsules in the UK with recyclable packaging.
