The fact that some people may perceive more pain in the initial phase of taking Recogen® is not related to the product but to the “ups and downs” of pain in osteoarthritis. Some days, you may feel fine and then after a few days, you may feel worse again. Several clinical studies have proven the effectiveness of Recogen® against osteoarthris, so continue to take Recogen® as per normal. If you experience pains not related to osteoarthritis, you may like to confirm with a medical doctor on your condition before taking Recogen®.

Recogen® Active
Collagen Protein and Whey Protein are a Perfect Match.
Whey protein is rich in essential amino acids and supports muscle growth, especially because of leucine. Collagen protein, on the other hand, contains many conditionally essential amino acids that help build muscle, reduce fat, and strengthen bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons by stimulating collagen tissue. However, collagen lacks the essential amino acid tryptophan, so whey and collagen proteins complement each other well.
While whey can be replaced by other proteins like casein or plant proteins, these alternatives usually have fewer essential amino acids and need to be consumed in larger amounts. Collagen peptides, however, are unique in their ability to stimulate collagen-forming cells and cannot be easily replaced.
For athletes, combining collagen and whey proteins is ideal. Another good approach is to have a balanced diet with various protein sources and add collagen peptides as a supplement.
Recogen Active uses protein with high digestibility, meaning they do not linger in the stomach. Therefore, you can take them before and/or after your workout (according to your body needs).
