Gelatin has been used as a supplement to promote and help maintain healthy joint cartilage and bones. It is also noted for its ability to enhance the vitality and structure of hair and nails, making them stronger and less brittle.
In addition, there are indications that gelatin may contribute to soothing the gastrointestinal (GI) tract by lining the tract’s mucous membrane and guarding against possible further irritations.
Gelatin may assist in detoxifying the liver due to the amino acid glycine, acknowledging a possible correlation between the ability of the liver to detoxify and the amount of glycine available in the liver.
Gelatin is a form of collagen that is commonly used in foods. It is a mixture of proteins that are extracted from animal collagen by a process known as hydrolysis. Gelatin peptides are rich in the amino acids that are found in collagen, including L-proline, L-hyrdoxyproline, and glycine, and each is believed to be critical in contributing to joint health.
