Arthritis Pain in North America hasreached enormous proportions. Millions of people suffer from some form of arthritis, with a huge impact on their quality of life. According to a 1990 study, Management The Search for Natural Solutions
Conventional medical treatments for arthritispain often have serious side effects. COX-2 inhibitors, which are widely prescribed for arthritis pain and inflammation are currently under scrutiny for raising the risk of heart attacks. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDS) frequently cause symptoms of ulcers, nausea, stomach pains, and acid reflux. Powerful steroids, prescribed for rhuematoid arthritis can lead to weight gain, diabetes, high blood pressure, and facial swelling. The search for effective and safe Type II collagen
Type II collagen is the major protein in articular cartilage and is a potential autoantigen in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory synovial disease thought to involve T cells reacting to an antigen within the joint. Recent clinical trials involving patients with severe, active rheumatoid arthritis showed a decrease in the number of swollen joints and tender joints among subjects using type II collagen for 3 months. Type II collagen is non toxic and considered a safe alternative Type II Collagen (when derived from chicken sternum) provides a bioavailable souorce of Hyaluronan, which is essential in maintaining healthy synovial (joint) fluid. Hyaluronan & Type II Collagen
Hyaluronan (HA) is found in virtually all tissues and fluids of the body, especially in synovial (joint) fluid, the eyes vitreous fluid and in skin. HA plays a critical role in maintaining healthy joint synovial fluid and preventing the degeneration of aging joints. HA has high daily turnover, so large amounts may be needed to maintain normal steady-state levels. HA is also a regulatory molecule influencing cell movement, phagocytosis and blood vessel formation. HA also serves as a free radical scavenger and antioxidant, and may be particularly important to protect the skin from the aging effects of excessive sunlight exposure. HA is critically involved in healthy wound healing. HA stimulates DNA synthesis and fibroblast cell division, essential for healthy skin and cartilage maintenance. By the time a person reaches age 30, his or her HA becomes disorganized from skin collagen protein, compared to the interweaving of HA and skin collagen in a nine-year-old, and is even more disconnected in the skin of 60-year-olds.

Rheumatoid Tolerance Factor: Type II Collagen Caps
By Pharmax Nutritional & Biophysical Systems
Patients suffering from arthritis, experience a selective destruction of collagen type II in the cartilage within their joints. Type II collagen is the major protein found in cartilage. It as the "glue" that holds together the cartilage and it helps provide elasticity within the joints. In addition, cartilage is able to heal itself because of the mucopolysaccharides are contained in Type II collagen. Recent clinical trials involving patients with severe, active rheumatoid arthritis showed a decrease in the number of swollen joints and tender joints among subjects using type II collagen for 3 months. Type II collagen is non toxic and considered a safe alternative to NSAID’s. Collagen type II is derived from different sources, and not all types of collagen are equally effective. The chicken bone cartilage used in Rheumatoid Tolerance Factor: Type II Collagen Capshas been shown to contain the highest concentration of beneficial proteoglycans, substances that enhance the production of joint fluid and maintain cartilage as an effective cushion when we are engaging in movement such as running and walking.
