What is FORTIBONE® Collagen?

Most people don’t realize this, but 50% of your bones are made of collagen. That’s right—collagen isn’t just important for your skin and joints. It’s a crucial part of your bone structure too.

Think of collagen as the framework or scaffold inside your bones. Without it, the minerals that make your bones strong wouldn’t have anything to cling to. It’s this collagen scaffold that gives your bones structure and keeps them solid.

But as you age, that collagen breaks down, leading to weaker bones and greater risk for conditions like osteopenia and osteoporosis. That’s why teams of researchers, doctors, and scientists were so amazed by FORTIBONE® Collagen. Supported by multiple double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, FORTIBONE® does what no other collagen can—it increases bone density.

Why FORTIBONE® Is The Best Collagen For Bone Health

Most collagen supplements are like Swiss Army knives—designed to tackle a variety of issues such as skin, hair, nails, and joints. But FORTIBONE® is laser-focussed on one thing: fixing low bone density.

It’s true! FORTIBONE® is patented with a singular focus: to combat low bone density. It doesn’t just make promises; it delivers results by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production within the bones, leading to increased bone density.

Sourced from bovine collagen, FORTIBONE® provides the precise peptides that your bones need to build a strong collagen matrix. This matrix is essential for bones to maintain their structure and strength. What’s more, it’s backed by clinical studies from top research institutions, proving its ability to increase bone density and help prevent bone loss.

In short, FORTIBONE® isn’t a one-size-fits-all collagen—it’s a targeted solution for anyone struggling with bone weakness or low bone density.

How FORTIBONE® Collagen Works

At the core of your bones is a collagen scaffold. Think of this scaffold as the framework that holds everything together. Once FORTIBONE® enters your body, it stimulates the cells responsible for bone growth—osteoblasts—to ramp up collagen production.2 This increased collagen helps build and strengthen that scaffold, creating a stronger structure for minerals like calcium to bind to.

But FORTIBONE® doesn’t stop there. It also plays a crucial role in slowing down bone breakdown. Normally, your bones are constantly being broken down by cells called osteoclasts. FORTIBONE® helps inhibit these cells. So not only are you building new bone tissue, but you’re also preventing bone loss.

As FORTIBONE® builds the collagen matrix, minerals like hydroxyapatite (a key component of bone strength) deposit into this matrix, giving your bones the solidity they need to stay strong and healthy.1 In simple terms, stronger, denser bones that are ready to stand the test of time.

Clinically Supported Benefits Of FORTIBONE®

The results speak for themselves. In a 12-month study3 involving 180 women with low bone mass, a daily intake of 5 grams of FORTIBONE® significantly improved bone density, particularly in those with osteopenia or osteoporosis.

A follow-up study4 in 2021 found that FORTIBONE® had a major impact on bone strength. Over four years, postmenopausal women saw a 5.79% increase in spine bone density and a 4.21% increase in hip density. Another group, which started on a placebo and later switched to FORTIBONE®, saw even better results with an 8.16% increase in spine bone density.

FORTIBONE® vs Other Collagens

Unlike standard collagen powders, which don’t have specific bone-strengthening effects, FORTIBONE® is clinically formulated and patented to target one thing: bone density. It’s not just a collagen supplement that “might” help your bones. FORTIBONE® is proven to work.

In fact, FORTIBONE® is the only collagen with double-blind, placebo-controlled studies showing significant improvements in bone density. No other collagen on the market can make that claim. The studies behind FORTIBONE®—including research from the University of Vienna, the University of Freiburg, and the Collagen Research Institute—show clear results. FORTIBONE® has helped postmenopausal women increase bone density in both the spine and hips.

If you’re looking for collagen that actually supports bone health, FORTIONE® is the only option. No other collagen has the clinical backing to prove it can build stronger, denser bones.

    Hello,
    I am taking a marine collagen because of concerns with bovine collagen and elevevated cholesterol levels!
    I have some osteoporosis and have been taking AlgaeCal Plus for a year and my bone density in my spine is still decreasing! I am curious about your collagen, but do not want to elevate my LDL cholesterol levels!
    Thoughts,
    I have scheduled a phone call with a bone scan rep from AlgaeCal this week so hoping I can get more answers!
    Thank you,

    Kristen
