Vitalio therapy is based on oral supplementation of anallergic hydrolyzed collagen solution which provides access to amino acids necessary for regeneration of joint cartilage as well as connective and bone tissue of the whole organism. It has a high content of glycine, proline and hydroxyproline – which gives 55% of the amino acids making up the collagen of the human body. Vitalio supports the metabolism of articular cartilage by providing substrates for its regeneration, enabling the control of the effects of proteolytic enzymes responsible for the formation of osteoarticular cartilage.

Usage of hydrolysed collagen is more effective than supplementation with amino acid products, because it contains sterling concentration and the proper proportion of amino acids needed for full molecular reconstruction of the collagen chain. Research shows that full treatment with hydrolysed collagen provides reduction of joint pain and supports the treatment of osteoarthritis, being a method with the high safety level.

In their natural form most of unhydrolyzed collagen products is not effectively absorbed in the small intestine due to their size.

The hydrolysis process reduces their molecular weight, which facilitates absorption into the blood system in the form of small collagen peptides and free amino acids. These free fragments are transferred via the blood vessels to the body’s cells, such as chondrocytes or osteocytes, which embeds them into the extracellular matrix.

Vitalio proteins are recognized by fibroblasts in the dermal layer of the skin as fragments of collagen, and this results in catabolic action. Therefore, they are stimulated to increase their metabolism, which counteracts the potential degradation of collagen in the dermal layer.

As a result, a noticeable increase in the production of collagen in the dermal layer and in the general extracellular matrix is obtained, replacing losses caused by aging processes and the negative impact of the external environment.

Regular oral use of Vitalio results in better effects in the metabolism of collagen in the dermal layer than the traditional application on the skin of creams and other such products.
