What is Biocell Collagen?
BioCell Collagen is derived from hormone- and antibiotic-free dietary chicken sternal cartilage. The composition of chicken sternal cartilage is quite similar to that of human cartilage, which is rich in type II collagen, chondroitin sulfate, and hyaluronic acid. Cartilage is a clean and desirable supply since it is free of diseases and contaminants that can be carried through blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerves. As a result, extracting only from cartilage reduces the danger of contamination.
The majority of collagen ingredients on the market come from animal protein in their whole (e.g., cow, pig, and marine). These materials are commonly branded as Collagen Peptides, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Collagen Hydrolysate, Collagen Type I & III, or Gelatin, and contain more than 90% protein (also a form of hydrolyzed collagen).
BioCell Collagen is a hydrolyzed chicken sternal cartilage extract made up of a naturally occurring matrix that includes collagen type II peptides, chondroitin sulfate, and hyaluronic acid. BioCell Collagen is GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe), non-GMO, gluten-free, soy-free, shellfish-free, fish-free, egg-free, milk-free, peanut-free, and sugar-free.

Biocell Collagen is the most prevalent protein in the dermis of the skin and joint cartilage. It keeps your skin strong and resilient, and your joints active and fluid, by providing the structural underpinning for your connective tissues. Chondroitin sulfate is a naturally occurring component of joint cartilage that provides remarkable shock absorption. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a chemical that helps hydrate your skin, lubricates your joints, and binds your cells together with a gel-like material.
It’s also worth noting that the biomolecule synergy present in BioCell’s unique matrix contributes significantly to its efficacy. BioCell Collagen has been studied extensively, with seven human clinical trials proving its safety, effectiveness, and bioavailability.

What is the Difference Between BioCell Collagen and Other Collagen Ingredients?
BioCell Collagen is not just an ordinary collagen ingredient. BioCell Collagen is a clinically studied dietary ingredient composed of naturally-occurring hydrolyzed collagen type II peptides, chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid. BioCell’s unique matrix is not a blend of individual ingredients. The synergy of biomolecules found in BioCell’s unique matrix plays a major role in its efficacy. Various studies, including seven human clinical trials, prove the safety, efficacy, bioavailability of BioCell Collagen.
Many collagen supplements on the market lack human clinical studies, do not contain efficacious ingredient quantities, or make false claims. In contrast, BioCell Collagen is backed by clinical studies and an extensive body of research. Multiple human clinical studies have been conducted on BioCell Collagen, demonstrating that 2 grams daily is effective for joint health, while 1 gram daily is effective for skin benefits. These studies provide solid evidence that BioCell Collagen is a unique, healthy aging dietary supplement ingredient that promotes active joints and younger-looking skin. The outcome of these studies was presented in scientific conferences and also published in scientific journals.
Is BioCell Collagen Safe for Human consumption?
Yes, BioCell Collagen has been safely and successfully used by millions of consumers since its introduction in the market in 1998. It was affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) by an independent experts safety panel following rigorous scientific reviews not only in safety and toxicology data, but on manufacturing processes according to food Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). Various research studies, including seven human clinical trials, support the safety, efficacy, and bioavailability of BioCell Collagen. BioCell Collagen is non-GMO and free of gluten, soy, shellfish, fish, egg, milk, peanuts and sugar.
How does BioCell Collagen Help Skin Age Gracefully?
1. Provides highly bioavailable building blocks to aid in the rebuilding of the dermal matrix.
Collagen, hyaluronic acid (HA), and chondroitin sulfate are all necessary for the skin dermis’s healthy structure and function.
The levels of these components diminish with age, causing the dermal matrix to disorganize or collapse.
BioCell Collagen supplementation has been shown in clinical tests to increase skin beauty from the inside out.
Collagen provides tensile strength to the dermal matrix, which is interwoven with ground compounds like hyaluronic acid.
Increasing the density of dermal fibroblasts, which are responsible for the production of structural components for the dermal network, can also help skin look younger.
2. Improves skin moisture, turgidity, and hyaluronidase inhibition.
Because HA is crucial for keeping water in the skin dermis, maintaining a suitable level of HA is essential for healthy skin structure and turgidity.
Dermal dehydration, skin sagging, and wrinkle development occur as HA and collagen levels decline with age.
BioCell Collagen provides highly accessible HA to help counteract the effects of natural degradation and photoaging.
HA levels in the blood of human individuals who took a daily dose of BioCell Collagen increased 60-fold during the 28-day trial period.
The combined action of HA synthesis and hyaluronidases maintains HA levels.
In response to a variety of normal and pathological stressors, including as aging and inflammation, hyaluronidase destroys HA.
Hyaluronidase has been demonstrated to be inhibited by BioCell Collagen.
As a result, BioCell Collagen can address a key molecular role involved in aging-related dryness while also restoring the skin dermis’ vital structural components.
In a groundbreaking human skin study conducted in 2011, BioCell Technology demonstrated that daily ingestion of BioCell Collagen for 12 weeks resulted in a significant reduction of facial lines and wrinkles, as well as improved hydration and stimulation of collagen biosynthesis, most likely from dermal fibroblasts.
It also resulted in a rise in hemoglobin in face skin tissue, implying improved blood microcirculation in the dermis.
The majority of study participants reported improved skin texture, increased hydration, and less facial scaling.
The findings of the study were reported in the journal Clinical Interventions in Aging (2012).

BioCell Collagen Human Bioavailability Study
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is in virtually all tissues of the body. In the joint, HA plays two essential roles. First, it acts as a key structural molecule to form healthy, functional cartilage. Second, HA is a major component of synovial fluid, the lubricant found in our joints that allows smooth and easy movement. In a 28-day bioavailability study in humans showed that ingestion of BioCell Collagen (1500 mg/day) led to a 60 times increase in HA levels at steady state.*
Multiple Human Clinical Trials vs BioCell Collagen Joint Support Studies
In an 80 subject, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial for joint health, investigators tested the tolerability and efficacy of BioCell Collagen® supplementation. The participants were divided into two groups and administered either 2 g of BioCell Collagen or placebo for 70 days. Compared to placebo, the BioCell group had a significant reduction of joint discomfort on days 35 (p = 0.017) and 70 (p < 0.001). Furthermore, the BioCell group experienced a significant improvement in physical activities compared to the placebo group on days 35 (p = 0.007) and 70 (p < 0.001). BioCell Collagen was well tolerated and found to be effective, thereby improving mobility and quality of life. The peer-reviewed study was published in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry. (Schauss et al., 2012).
These results were similar to the results of another earlier double-blind placebo-controlled trial tested on sixteen people. (Kalman et al., 2004).*
