Collagen diseases are not
limited to aging!
Collagen diseases form a group that
runs across the age spectrum because they involve
abnormalities in the immune system. Immune
system reactions provoke inflammation of many vital
tissues in the body.
Arthritis:
This general term describes
inflammation of the joints. Osteoarthritis is
the most common form, also called degenerative joint
disease. This form of arthritis correlates to
the breakdown of joint cartilage, mostly in the
hips, knees, shoulders and spine. It can also
painfully affect the fingers and toes.
There are common symptoms for this
form of inflammation: severe pain and loss of
motion, both of which degrade youthfulness and
quality of life. When arthritis is present, it
manifests a selective destruction of collagen in
joint cartilage, meaning white blood cells are
attacking the cartilage, which results in an immune
system response in the form of antibodies.
The antibodies then also go on the
attack (autoimmune response) against the "enemy",
collagen. The attack takes place on all the
degenerating cartilage in the body. As a
result, pain increases, quality of life decreases.
Rheumatic disease commonly manifests
as Rheumatoid Arthritis. It displays many of
the common symptoms and destruction of this group.
This disease also provokes an autoimmune response.
The treatment of arthritic diseases
is highly costly and includes horrible side effects.
Genacol has shown itself to be an effective
solution.
Fibromyalgia
and Collagen:
The underlying pathology of this disease has not yet
been identified and neither have any biological
markers been uncovered. But patients
displaying common symptoms of this disease syndrome
have lower mounts of intramuscular collagen and
higher levels of serum and urine collagen
metabolites. These facts are suggestive of why
the pain threshold is so low and why micro injuries
to the muscle occur. Tender joints point to a
collagen problem.
Genacol has demonstrated improvement
of the pain threshold in patients with this
complaint. Symptomatic improvement with
Genacol is highly probable.
Bursitis, Tendonitis
and Tendinosis:
Bursitis is caused by inflammation or
infection. I can cause pain, tenderness and
stiffness around the affected area. Painful
movement may reduce muscles strength for lack of
use.
Tendonitis is inflammation of the
tendons and can also lead to loss of muscle
strength. Medical researchers are now calling
it, tendinosis. Tendonitis/tendinosis results
from collagen breakdown in the tendons.
Collagen gives tendons their structural strength.
As collagen breaks down, tiny tears appear in
the tendon causing weakness and pain.
Repetitious movements at work or at play increases
wear and tear, literally.
Treatment of these conditions
involves rest of the affected areas, icing and/or
taking a collagen supplement. As the body
takes time to heal, Genacol gives the body the
needed collagen to repair and regenerate.
Act on the source of degeneration
before it takes over: supplement with Genacol
(Buy).
