341. Taking Type II Collagen Over Other Forms - Life Extension
In this episode, Dr. Mike and Dr. Crystal Gossard interview Dr. Daniel Martinez‑Puch, head of R&D at BioAberica, to explain the differences between hydrolyzed (denatured) collagen and native (undenatured) type II collagen. Dr. Martinez‑Puch describes how native type II retains its triple‑helical structure, enabling an oral‑tolerance mechanism that trains the immune system to protect joint cartilage, whereas hydrolyzed collagen relies on peptide absorption for modest joint benefits. Clinical studies show that low‑dose native type II (≈40 mg/day) can improve joint mobility and reduce cartilage breakdown markers over 3‑6 months, and may act faster when combined with anti‑inflammatory botanicals like Boswellia. The discussion highlights the distinct mechanisms, appropriate dosing, and realistic timelines for seeing joint health improvements.
