Osteocol Fortibone® is a food supplement providing 10 g of hydrolyzed collagen (FORTIBONE® ) per daily dose.
We know that collagen plays a very important role among the structural proteins of our body. It contributes to the health and elasticity of tendons, skin, muscles, vascular tissues and pure bones, is an essential element for maintaining their physiological flexibility and elasticity.
We think that bone is a mixture of mineral crystals contained in an organic matrix of collagen, which without its role of “scaffolding” or “glue”, would be extremely fragile and prone to break.
Put more simply, bone is a very dynamic tissue, with “bricklayers” builders (the “osteoblasts”) and other destroyers (the “osteoclasts”). You lose bone when the destroying elements work harder than the builders.
Osteocol Fortibone® provides a specific patented mixture of peptides (FORTIBONE®). Thanks to the bioactive collagen peptides specific contained in Osteocol Fortibone® so we will provide that material necessary to create an ideal environment of preventive support. FORTIBONE® was voted Ingredient of the Year and won the Nutra Ingredient Award at the recent Vitafoods Europe fair, distinguished either by its solid scientific background and long-term results.
