Jointace Collagen FAQ
Why have Jointace Collagen tablets been developed?
Jointace Collagen tablets have been scientifically developed to help safeguard your diet with specific nutrients which help to support normal cartilage and bone health which are important for long term wellbeing and maintaining an active lifestyle.
Can Jointace Collagen tablets be simultaneously used with medicines?
Jointace Collagen tablets are a food supplement and contain only moderate levels of vitamins and minerals. For specific advice on taking Jointace Collagen tablets with medicines, we recommend that you contact your doctor or pharmacist first. Diabetics and those using blood thinning medication (e.g. blood thinners) should consult their doctor before using this product.
How many tablets does one pack of Jointace Collagen contain?
Jointace Collagen contains 30 tablets per pack. It is recommended to take 2 tablets per day.
How and when should Jointace Collagen tablets be used?
Two tablets per day are recommended with or immediately after your main meal, with water or a cold drink, and not tea or coffee as this may cause the tablets to disintegrate too early. Jointace Collagen tablets should not be chewed. Taking the tablets with a large meal maximises the absorption of the nutrients and can reduce nausea, which is sometimes experienced if vitamin supplements are taken on an empty stomach.
Are there any side effects whilst taking Jointace Collagen tablets?
Jointace Collagen tablets have no known side-effects when taken as directed. Do not exceed the recommended intake. In case of overdose, seek medical advice immediately. Jointace Collagen tablets may not be suitable for use by those allergic to fish or shellfish. Diabetics and those using blood thinning medication (blood thinners) should consult their doctor before using this product.
Need help swallowing a tablet or capsule?
Difficulty in swallowing tablets is quite a common experience. Vitabiotics have researched this extensively and recommend after chewing some food (e.g. banana), just before you swallow, pop the tablet into your mouth and swallow it together with the chewed food, followed by some liquid. The throat opens up wider to swallow the chewed food and so the tablet should go down with greater ease. Alternatively, the tablets may be swallowed with thicker liquids such as yoghurts or smoothies.
What are the active ingredients?
Please see nutritional information
For how long should Jointace Collagen be used?
Results vary amongst individuals. There is no maximum length of time over which Jointace Collagen tablets may be used. A regular intake is recommended.
Are Jointace Collagen tablets recommended with any other Vitabiotics’ product(s)?
The benefits of Jointace Collagen tablets may be enhanced by use alongside other topical (external use) products in the Jointace range, such as Jointace Patch & Gel. Jointace Collagen is also ideal in combination with a calcium supplement, such as Vitabiotics Osteocare, and/or additional fish oil, such as Vitabiotics Ultra range.
Why has Calcium not been included in the formula?
Calcium is an essential mineral as it is needed for the maintenance of normal bones. However, it has not been included in the Jointace Collagen formula as it is not possible to include the right amount in one or two tablets as well as the other ingredients in Jointace Collagen. Rather than including a token amount of Calcium, Jointace Collagen has been designed so that it can also be taken with Vitabiotics Osteocare tablets, chewable tablets or liquid.
Some Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) levels are above 100%, is this safe?
Certain vitamins are very safe at levels tens or even hundreds of times the NRV, whereas for others the safety level is much closer to the NRV. For this reason every vitamin and mineral needs to considered on an individual basis in terms of its upper safe level.
The Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) is the amount of a vitamin or mineral which has been calculated to help prevent basic deficiency states in the general population. However, certain vitamins and minerals at optimal levels, above the NRV, have consistently been shown to have positive benefits in specific areas of health. This is why some Vitabiotics formulas have certain nutrient levels greater than 100% NRV.
All Vitabiotics products have been developed using the latest research and contain effective levels of vitamins and minerals, while avoiding any excessive amounts, in accordance with official upper safe limits for vitamins and minerals.
Vitabiotics avoids ‘mega dose’ levels of isolated nutrients and instead we have always stressed the importance of safe, moderate and sensible levels of vitamins and minerals, carefully balanced to maximise their combined effect; an approach which has been supported by many experts and researchers over the years.
