At a glance

A different approach to joints: 40mg of undenatured type II collagen (UC-II) rather than a gram-level dose, with vitamin C, manganese and copper. Informed Sport batch tested. Chicken-derived, so not vegetarian.

It may suit you if

You want a once-daily, small-dose joint capsule
You compete and need batch testing
You have tried glucosamine without success

You may prefer something else if

You are vegetarian or vegan — this is chicken-derived
You specifically want glucosamine and chondroitin

We may earn a commission on purchases made through these links. It does not increase the price you pay, and commission plays no part in how products are matched or ordered. Prices and formulations change frequently — check the current pack before buying.

How the cost works out

Lowest pack price: £29.99
Servings: 60
Cost per serving: 50p
Cost per 30 days: £15.00

Cost per serving is the fairest way to compare, because pack sizes vary enormously within the same category. It still does not account for how much active ingredient is in each serving — check that too.
