Woman Stroking Dog on BeachThere is a lot of talk about collagen these days which leads to a bit of confusion about which collagen does what. Do I take it for skin health? Connective tissues? What is the difference? How do I know if I am taking the right one for my needs?  

Chicken collagen is a specific kind of collagen that offers benefits for fibromyalgia in a couple of ways that might surprise you. 

Fibromyalgia is a chronic, widespread amplified pain condition with multiple symptoms that manifest differently from patient to patient. Pain, poor sleep, trouble concentration, fatigue that lingers even with rest, morning stiffness,  sensitivity to noise, cold intolerance and more than 100 other associated symptoms are not uncommon to fibro. 

 The primary benefits of taking chicken collagen -- specifically undenatured chicken collagen UC-II® --are two fold. One, UC-II® reinforces collagen, the main structure of cartilage tissue. Two, UC-II® appears to reduce inflammatory markers to reduce any further cartilage damage, improve mobility and to lower pain. 

How does UC-II® help fibromyalgia? 

Well, interestingly there is research that points to fibromyalgia being an auto-immune disorder and that inflammation is involved, even when the typical blood tests for inflammatory markers are not positive. What does that mean? Fibromyalgia could be a state of neuroinflammation but a blood test to prove that has not been discovered yet. Brain images in fibro do show definite changes. Perhaps time and new research will tell. Until then lowering inflammation is a necessary step to healing.  

Everybody experiences inflammation. It is a process that occurs in the body naturally in response to trauma, wear and tear on joints and so forth. Inflammation becomes a problem, though, when the process does not return to "normal". Joints heal but pain lingers. Wounds mend but scarring occurs. Whatever the reason, the body remains  in a constant inflammatory mode. 

Additionally, other activity from sugar imbalance, excitatory cytokines (substances that influence cells and tissues), prolonged infections and nutritional deficiencies can provoke or prolong inflammation.  Because inflammation is also behind many disorders, inflammation is a hot health subject and much research is devoted to studying its mechanisms. Unfortunately the main therapy option is  nonsteroidal  agents  (NSAIDs), drugs  often associated with GI ulcerations and other side effects. 

UC-II® is a more  natural solution to quench the inflammatory cascade and  calm the destructive storm in order for  the body to heal and recover. Specifically, it is research patented  UC-II® that promises better bioavailability and thus more benefits for healing, improved mobility and pain reduction. 

You may be thinking that UC-II® could help others besides those with fibro and you’d be correct. For many, fibromyalgia is often co-morbid, meaning it occurs with other disorders that are  auto immune in nature  such as  arthritis, Hashimoto’s thyroid, Crohn’s and so on. Reducing the symptoms of a co-morbid condition will also improve fibro symptoms, especially those relating  to pain, fatigue, flexibility and sensory intolerances.  

If you want less inflammation and the symptoms associated with it, consider UC-II®.
