This
particular formula combines the positive effective of Collagen Type
II therapy with the amino acid L-proline. It is not one of Lakota's
legendary, traditional Native American formulas, but a cost effective,
modern day formulation from for those of you suffering from joint
cartilage degeneration.

Lakota Rheumatoid Osteo formula was specifically desiged to address
the needs of those suffering primarily from rheumatoid arthritis,
but people suffering from osteo arthritis should also think about

Frequently
Asked Questions:
What
is Collagen Type II ? Collagen Type II is derived from chicken
sternum cartilage and has been scientifically proven to help arthritic
(especially rheumatoid) patients rebuild damaged joints, cartilage
and tendons. Collagen Type II is far more effective for rebuilding
joint cartilage than Chondroitin Sulphate which only contains Collagen
Type I. Furthermore, Collagen Type I does not work near as effectively
on immune-system-related forms of arthritis (i.e. rheumatoid arthritis)
as Collagen Type II does.
What
is L-proline ? L-proline is the primary amino acid found in cartilage.
It aids in maintaining and producing cartilage and helps strengthen
joints, cartilage, connective tissue and tendons.
How
does Collagen Type II Work ? Collagen Type II naturally stabilizes
the body’s immune system and helps neutralize the production of abnormal
molecular structures thought to be a major cause of joint misery,
deformation, and stiffness, ESPECIALLY in rheumatoid arthritis patients.
Collagen
Type II also provides the raw materials for human cartilage which
can be beneficial for both osteo and rheumatoid arthritis. Unlike
many pharmaceutical products that offer only symptomatic relief,
Collagen Type II not only reduces pain and inflammation, but also
directly combats arthritis by aiding in the normal repair and regeneration
of cartilage, ligaments and tendons, as well as helping to improve
connective tissue elasticity and cushioning.
Are
there any side effects or stomach discomfort associated with Collagen
Type II? No significant side effects or discomfort of any kind
have been reported from Collagen Type II users.
Is
there research that validates the positive effects of Collagen Type
II ? Yes. Collagen Type II was thoroughly tested in a major double
blind controlled study at Harvard Medical School. The results of
this study were published in the prestigious medical journal, Science.
The article was entitled, Effects of Oral Administration of Type
II Collagen on Rheumatoid Arthritis. This study proved conclusively
that Collagen Type II improved all of the major clinical symptoms
of severe joint misery in those suffering from RA.
Can I take Collagen Type II with my other medications ? Yes.
Collagen Type II is completely safe and natural and should not interfere
with other medications you may be taking. However, Lakota recommends
that you inform your pharmacist or physician before starting Collagen
Type II therapy if you are being treated for chronic health problems
with prescription medications.
How
long does it take for Collagen Type II to work ? The effects
of Collagen Type II therapy are cumulative and long lasting. Many
users report joint relief benefits within 14 days. For others it
can take up to 6 weeks before they experience significant results.
Collagen Type II helps the body heal itself, so the time it takes
to experience results will vary with each individual.
