Are you looking for a capsule with type II collagen? NOW Foods' UC-II contains 40 mg of standardized chicken cartilage with undenatured type II collagen per capsule. While many collagen powders focus on type I, this product specifically features type II collagen. One bottle contains 60 capsules, enough for 60 days at 1 per day.
Each capsule contains 40 mg of UC-II standardized chicken cartilage, providing 10 mg of total collagen, including undenatured type II collagen. Undenatured means that the collagen has not been processed into a standard collagen hydrolysate, as is the case with many powders. This ensures you know exactly what you're getting per capsule.
In addition to type II collagen, the formula contains Aquamin, a mineral complex from red seaweed (Lithothamnion spp.), providing 80 mg of calcium per capsule. The capsule itself is plant-based (hypromellose), but the UC-II ingredient comes from chicken cartilage. Therefore, the product is not vegetarian or vegan.
The recommended use is 1 capsule per day before bedtime, preferably on an empty stomach. One bottle contains 60 capsules. The product is GMP-produced with clear allergen information. There are no authorized EFSA health claims available for this type of ingredient, so this page deliberately contains no claims of efficacy.
Contains UC-II standardized chicken cartilage, with a clear amount of 40 mg per capsule.

UC-II is the name of a standardized chicken cartilage ingredient that contains type II collagen. This product provides 40 mg of UC-II per capsule.
Undenatured means that the collagen has not been processed into a standard collagen hydrolysate. This makes it a different type of collagen product than many collagen powders.
Type I collagen occurs naturally abundantly in skin and connective tissue and is often used in collagen powders. Type II collagen occurs naturally mainly in cartilage.
With this product, the advice is to take 1 capsule before bedtime, preferably on an empty stomach.
