Same problem you just read about

A dry joint needs three things put back. This is all three, in one scoop.

Arthritis is drying out the fluid that cushions your shoulder. The cushion stops being fed, it thins, and the joint gets angry. Painkillers, turmeric, and the skin kind of collagen never touched any of that. This does.

Feed the cushion

Each scoop provides 20mg of undenatured Type II collagen, or 40mg at two scoops. The collagen remains in its undenatured form. The shoulder cartilage starts getting fed again.

Hold the fluid

Hyaluronic acid is what joint fluid is largely made of. It helps the shoulder socket hold on to its water, so the ball and socket glide instead of grind when you lift your arm.

Cool the swelling

MSM and astaxanthin calm the heat coming off a dry shoulder from two directions, so the swelling settles today while the collagen does the slow work.

Can I point something out?

Most people are not choosing between More Than Collagen and doing nothing.
They are choosing between More Than Collagen...
...or continuing to buy the collagen bag, the turmeric, the glucosamine, and the Ibuprofen, month after month.

Four supplement bottles on one side and one Balmve pouch and scoop on the other

Instead of...

  • Four bottles and a bag to remember every morning
  • $60 to $100 a month spread across supplements that never met each other
  • Hoping the ingredients happen to work together
  • Ibuprofen turning the alarm down while the shoulder joint stays dry
  • A drawer that keeps filling up and a shoulder that keeps grinding

With More Than Collagen

  • Mix one scoop in 200 to 300 mL water once daily, or two scoops in 300 to 400 mL water.

The things going through your head right now

We have heard every one of these. Here are the honest answers.

A hand opens a drawer filled with supplement bottles, bags, and a brace

“I already tried collagen and it did nothing.”

Turn the old bag around. If it says Type I and III, it was made for skin and hair and never contained a gram of what your shoulder cartilage is built from. You did not fail. The label did. This formula includes undenatured Type II: 20mg per scoop, or the 40mg amount used in studies at two scoops.

“It is a lot of money for a powder.”

Under a dollar a day today. Less than the ibuprofen habit, less than one physio session a month, and about 0.2% of what a shoulder replacement costs even with insurance. The question is not the price. It is what the next six months cost if nothing changes.

“I will wait and see how it goes.”

The cushion does not wait. Every month the fluid thins a little more, the cartilage gives back a little more of what it is made of, and nothing arrives to replace it. Waiting is not a neutral choice. It is a choice for the version of your shoulder that is thinner than today’s. Start while there is still cushion to feed.

“What if it does not work for me?”

Then it costs you nothing. Take it for eight weeks, measure your morning stiffness or your range of motion on the fridge, and if the number has not moved, email us. We refund every penny, and the bag can be completely empty. That is not marketing. That is the policy.

“I am on HRT and arthritis medication.”

Ask your clinician or pharmacist to check the ingredient list before adding More Than Collagen to HRT, painkillers, or anti-inflammatories. Keep taking your medication as prescribed.

“I am already on the list for a shoulder replacement.”

Keep the appointment. We would never tell you to cancel anything your surgeon has planned. Some customers on a list have told us the wait felt very different once the mornings eased, and a few chose to push their date back. That is your surgeon’s conversation. Ours is what you do in the meantime.

Why More Than Collagen wins, benefit by benefit

The power of the right collagen

Undenatured Type II: 20mg per scoop, or 40mg at two scoops.

Even the little Type II on the shelf is usually cooked, and Type II only works while it is whole. Ours is UC-II, undenatured, so it survives your stomach and reaches the gut intact.

In a 90-day randomized trial of people with knee osteoarthritis, 40mg a day of UC-II reduced WOMAC scores by 33%, compared with 14% for 2,700mg of glucosamine plus chondroitin.

Here is why we are willing to do what most brands will not

More Than Collagen pouch framed by bubbles on a blue background

We give you 60 days to try More Than Collagen and get your money back. The bag can be completely empty. No form, no reason, nothing to post back.

We can afford to say that because this is measurable. Time how long your shoulder takes to loosen up tomorrow morning, or count how high you can lift your arm before it catches. Write it on the fridge. One scoop a day, retest at week eight, and let the number decide.

So here is the real decision:

⊗   Worst case

You do not feel a difference, you email us, and you are out nothing but eight weeks you were going to spend stiff anyway.

⊙   Best case

You get the sleep, the overhead reach, the coat, the driving, and the freedom with the people you love back, and you wonder why you waited.

Who is More Than Collagen for?

A woman holding a mug and resting a hand on the banister at home

Shoulders that grind

Women told it is arthritis, handed ibuprofen, and told to come back when it is bad enough for a replacement.

Arms that dread the night

Side sleepers waking up in tears because the shoulder feels like it is sliding out of the socket.

The drawer full of tries

Turmeric, glucosamine, a half-finished collagen bag. Right idea every time, wrong target every time.

Women on a surgery list

Keeping the appointment, but wanting the eighteen months before it to feel different than the last eighteen.

Who is it NOT for?

Painkiller shoppers

It is not relief this afternoon.

Vegans

Collagen is animal-derived.

Cure hunters

It supports the joint. It does not treat disease.

September has a very high risk of selling out

Whole Type II has to stay cold and unheated the whole way through, which rules out most of the supply chain. So we make it in batches of 5,000 and no more. It sold out 12 times last year, and the seasonal demand is pulling this batch faster than any before it.

Shoulders & surgery

The second shoulder is off the table

One shoulder already operated on, the other one was next on the list. Saw the surgeon in June and he said there is no rush now. Nobody has said the word surgery to me in eight months.

Denise R., 67· Month 11

Shoulders & surgery

I can reach behind my back again

They had me down for a replacement within two years. I am not saying this cancelled it. I am saying I walked into that appointment and walked out without a date.

Yvonne P., 64· Month 4

The rusty mornings

My shoulder used to feel like rust

Like it needed oiling before it would move without catching. Now I am putting on my coat at six in the morning without thinking about it.

Jean H., 62· Month 2

The rusty mornings

An hour of stiffness, down to ten minutes

An hour of stiffness every morning when I tried to lift my arm, that was my normal. It is about ten minutes now. Oiled is the only word for it.

Gloria M., 59· Month 3

The rusty mornings

I sleep through the night now on my side

I used to wake in tears every single time I rolled onto that shoulder. That stopped somewhere around week five and I did not even notice at first.

Ellen F., 68· Month 4

Somebody else noticed

Someone else noticed

My daughter looked at me in the kitchen and said, Mum, you just reached up to the high shelf with both hands. I had not even registered that I stopped using my left arm to help.

Nina R., 65· Month 3

Somebody else noticed

Bought it for my wife, now she is fine

She does her hair and reaches overhead without wincing. Three weeks and she has stopped complaining about her shoulder at night. Happy wife, happy life.

Tom B., 66· Bought for his wife

Somebody else noticed

My shoulders stopped sounding like gravel

Skeptical guy here. Wife bought it, I made fun of it, now I take it every morning because my shoulders stopped sounding like a gravel driveway when I do my morning stretches.

Marcus T., 54· Verified Buyer

Everyday wins

My clothes fit right and I can dress myself

In March I could not do up my bra strap or put on a winter coat without agony. My shoulder works again and I got my independence back.

Straight answers

Can I use More Than Collagen for shoulder joint support?

More Than Collagen is formulated for general joint support. Each scoop contains 20 mg of undenatured Type II collagen, along with hyaluronic acid, MSM, and astaxanthin.

Can this be used post menopause?

Yes, especially designed for women over 50 whose joints experience increased dryness and stiffness.

Does it have Type I and III as well, or only Type II?

It has both. 4.5g of multi-collagen Types I & III per scoop for tendons and ligaments, plus 20mg of undenatured Type II for cartilage.

How long until I feel a difference?

Initial swelling and stiffness relief in weeks 1 to 2 via MSM and astaxanthin. Joint fluid and structural rebuilding from week 3 through month 3.

I already take collagen but my joints are still stiff. Why?

You were likely taking skin-and-hair Type I/III beauty collagen that never reached your joint cartilage.
