A study presented at the Osteoarthritis Research Society International Congress showed that collagen hydrolysate reduced joint symptoms brought about by mechanical stress. Researchers noted participants taking collagen had significant improvements in knee pain within 24 weeks, compared to counterparts taking a placebo. The participants suffered joint symptoms caused by sporting activity, stress conditions, injury, post-surgical trauma, limited mobility and inflammation.
