 | | NATURAL JOINT HEALTH SOLUTIONS FROM WAITAKI | | | Waitaki Biosciences | | 01/09/2008 | | | Waitaki Biosciences, a leading supplier of high-quality, bio-available nutraceuticals, has launched two collagen-rich ingredients with applications in joint health and skin care. Chondroitin Sulphate Complex and Soluble Collagen II have been developed using fully traceable New Zealand-sourced raw materials, delivering an optimum combination of naturally-occurring nutrients to encourage wellness and beauty from the inside and out.
“We’re delighted to launch our latest innovations at such an exciting stage in their development,” commented Craig McIntosh, CEO, Waitaki Biosciences. “Both ingredients provide considerable benefits for joint health and skin care applications, and through our recent research we can now precisely quantify the active ingredients which enable these value-adding propositions.”
Soluble Collagen II Complex contains a synergistic ratio of the critical compounds essential for joint and skin health. The product comprises of 40 per cent hydrolysed type II collagen, an essential component of healthy joints, providing systematic and functional relief to patients suffering from arthritic conditions. It also contains a minimum of 25 per cent low molecular weight chondroitin sulphate. Well documented benefits of chondroitin sulphate include joint health, wound healing and improvement in hair and nail quality. In addition, the ingredient has the ability to attract and retain moisture, making it a valuable addition to skin care applications. Soluble Collagen II Complex is presented in a highly soluble powder form with options for use in beverage, topical skin and personal care, food and dietary supplement applications.
Waitaki’s Chondroitin Sulphate Complex is a natural freeze dried product containing chondroitin sulphate, type II collagen and bioactive growth factors to support optimal joint function. A specially developed low temperature process ensures the highest level of product integrity with guaranteed protein levels of 60 - 70 per cent and minimum glycosaminoglycan content of 20 per cent. Chondroitin sulphate is an effective joint lubricant that promotes natural joint repair. Evidence also suggests it may prevent enzyme damage to joint cartilage for continued joint health. Chondroitin Sulphate Complex is suitable for tableting and encapsulation. | |
