CollaGEN
Ortho Molecular Products
Overview
CollaGEN combines several ingredients known for their potential benefits in joint and connective tissue health. The presence of Fortigel at an effective dose is promising, the overall effectiveness is somewhat limited by the proprietary blend and the lack of long term testing for their specific formulation, with a few quality of life and comfort benefits.
The Good
Contains Fortigel at a clinically relevant dose (5.2g) for supporting joint health.
Includes Vitamin C (100mg) which is essential for collagen synthesis.
Provides Magnesium (135mg), an important mineral for muscle and nerve function.
The Bad
Limited long-term studies on the specific blend.

May cause mild gastrointestinal discomfort in some individuals.
