Collagen?
Collagen is a protein known as “structural”, which is to say that they make up the organism by giving it structure. It is a sort of “glue” for tissue. Collagen is essential to the cohesion, elasticity and regeneration of tissue. It is also the most abundant protein in the body.
There are more then 12 types of collagen but the one that is present in cartilage is type-II collagen. With rheumatoid arthritis, complex immune mechanisms destroy type-II collagen in the cartilage. In traditional Chinese medicine, consuming animal cartilage has been recommended for thousands of years to treat articular issues.
Modern nutritional habits are considerably responsible for generalized collagen deficiency. Nowadays, people rarely eat good quantities of homemade stocks or broths made with meat or chicken prepared with the bones and cartilage. The use of boneless meats or packaged broths is more widespread.
