How does Genacol work?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

If using their basic Original formula they advise 3 capsules daily, and they offer a 180 counts or 90 day count bottle. They recommend using it either at bedtime or as directed by a healthcare provider.<\/p>\n

The reason why they highlight their patented form of collagen is because it is made to be as similar to human collagen in order for it to be fully absorbed. This also has what is described as the:<\/p>\n

\u201clowest molecular sized peptides\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

By making it so small it can be easily absorbed and made as effective as possible by the body.<\/p>\n

Many supplements for joint health were reviewed and the following were considered to be the best of the year.<\/a><\/p>\n

Top Benefits:\u00a0<\/strong>Only natural additives are used and the key active ingredient is both grass-fed and pasture-raised to ensure that comes from a quality source. No GMO additives of any kind are used, and they help explain the benefits of their patented additive.<\/p>\n

Negatives:\u00a0<\/strong>With just one ingredient added it is not as comprehensive as other solutions which are more comprehensive. Some consumers also had odd side effects and it\u2019s unknown why this is so.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

After much review the following 10 supplements were considered to be the best at reducing joint pain while improving joint health.<\/a><\/p>\n

Who makes this supplement?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Their name is Genacol International Corporation, Inc. and to reach them they offer their contact details as:<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 Blainville, QC J7C 6B4, Canada<\/strong><\/p>\n

Phone Number:\u00a0<\/strong>(888) 514-3622<\/p>\n

Their official website does not mention at all whether on rot they offer a money back return policy. This likely means that all sales are final and no returns are offered.<\/p>\n

You can\u2019t find much information about their practices from many 3d party websites but it\u2019s clear they have not had any serious issues.<\/p>\n

They also had 3 different clinical studies done on their version of collagen.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a full breakdown of brands which could best enhances mobility, reduce joint pain, and help regenerate tissue.<\/a><\/p>\n

What\u2019s inside of it and are there side effects?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The ingredients can vary on the specific version used, here are some common ingredients:<\/p>\n

AminoLock Hydrolyzed Collagen from bovine: <\/strong>Patented structural protein that is taken from cow which are only fed grass and allowed to graze on a pasture. This is intended to be a better way to treat cows which can result in less stress and healthier cattle.<\/p>\n

This form of collagen is intended to be easier for the body to digest and metabolize so it can be transformed into usable collagen for humans.<\/p>\n

Genacol is the only source for this patented ingredient. 3 studied in particular are mentioned by the official website.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately after reviewing the studies there were unimpressive results.\u00a0 A study by the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine that performed a randomized controlled study had different groups and they found that:<\/p>\n

\u201cNo significant difference\u2026 after 6 months\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was in comparison to a cheap anti-inflammatory drug. Another study in the ScienceDirect journal concluded with:<\/p>\n

\u201cMore studies are needed\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The final study by the University of the Philippines ended with:<\/p>\n

\u201cpossibly limitation\u2026 duration of intervention\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

They added that there has to be longer studies to ensure that it would actually be effective. So even their cited studies all had issues either with the length, need for additional studies, or the compared results were similar to cheap drugs.<\/p>\n

Sodium Benzoate: <\/strong>Added only to the ready to drink versions of Genacol, this is a common preservative added to liquids to help prevent spoiling.\u00a0 The legal amounts are regulated since in excess this may lead to unwanted side effects. This can potentially cause:<\/p>\n
