UC-II® – Introducing a unique collagen
UC-II® 40mg by EssentialSeries is a proprietary HSN formula made from Lonza’s renowned raw material: UC-II®, a special type of collagen known as type-II, which is non-hydrolysed (non-denatured) and dosed in milligram concentrations for effectiveness.
The formula of our food supplement has been enriched with the addition of vitamins such as D, K and C; and minerals such as manganese and copper in the best available presentations to make the most of its nutritional characteristics.
In addition, HSN’s formula has been enhanced with a source of high nutritional quality coconut MCTs to act as a carrier for much greater bioavailability and more effective nutritional properties.
A unique formula developed by HSN – Discover it!
Unique Type-II collagen. Completely different from the usual Type-I collagen.
Collagens are differentiated into different types based on the specific amino acid sequence they follow.
Collagen, depending on its type, is distributed in different structures of the body. We should know that the most relevant and present is type I, as it is mainly found in the skin and mucous membranes.
However, because of its specific chemical configuration, type II collagen is the collagen that is mainly present in the fibrous tissue networks of the joints, which is why there are food supplements specifically developed with this type of collagen, such as UC-II® 40mg by EssentialSeries.
Authentic UC-II® verified. HSN and Lonza – Working together for better health
Lonza is a Swiss company focused on food supplement research to obtain the highest quality of scientific innovation on its unique products.
The pinnacle of its development has been UC-II®.
UC-II® is a patented collagen obtained from chicken sternal cartilage, from which collagen is extracted and then purified to isolate pure type II collagen.
This collagen is not hydrolysed, as it is denatured and loses its nutritional interest, hence it is considered a native collagen. The only truly effective native type II collagen with solid research in its field.
HSN collaborates with Lonza in the distribution of this raw material, as we are convinced that it is part of the future of food supplements with high technological development, and we want it to be available to you today.
We exclusively use undenatured type II collagen in our product, and this collagen is purely UC-II®.
You can find us as certified partners on the official Lonza website for the UC-II®.
In convenient capsules: Small size, you need 1 capsule a day, easy to swallow
UC-II® is a food supplement that is very convenient to use, as it has all the features that make the product easy to use capsules.
For example:
Its size is small, we do not need to use large capsules because the densities of the compounds used allow us to dose them with high concentrations without the need to use large coating agents that generate capsules that are difficult to swallow.
And thanks to our high unit concentration, you only need one unit per day to get the most out of its unique nutritional properties.
Easy, convenient and fast!
Formula with complementary nutrients that enhance and improve the action of UC-II®
The UC-II® is intended for use by people who generate a high joint impact through their daily activity, such as physical exercise.
We have supplemented the formula with a studied combination of nutrients to generate nutritional synergy with UC-II®. For example, vitamin C is a great addition, as it has properties linked to the contribution of normal collagen formation to the functioning of tissues such as joint cartilage.
The best studied combination of micronutrients can be found in UC-II® by HSN.
With MCT. A unique development to improve bioavailability and maximise effectiveness.
MCTs are a type of fatty acid that has outstanding carrier properties due to its shorter carbon length, which makes it an excellent carrier of fat-soluble compounds.
UC-II® has been developed with these fatty acids to improve their bioavailability, thus making their transport more effective, as well as that of the fat-soluble vitamins it contains, such as D and K.
Enjoy an innovative formula with HSN food supplements.
The most studied collagen. Discover the scientific evidence behind it
Lugo is an extremely reputable researcher in the field of food science in human, animal and pre-clinical research.
His research group has been interested in this compound since the beginning of the development of UC-II® and found it to have promising properties.
After more than a decade of research, multiple scientific studies carried out by this leading research group highlight many of the properties found in the undenatured type II collagen developed by Lonza:

UC-II® is a formula with vitamins and minerals that has unique properties
UC-II® 40mg by HSN has multiple nutrients with nutritional properties that have a positive physiological impact on people’s health.
For example, the properties of its micronutrients stand out, such as:
- Vitamin D and K, which contribute to the maintenance of normal bones.
And the mixed action of manganese and copper that:
They contribute formation (manganese) and maintenance (copper) normal connective tissue.
For whom is it intended?
The UC-II® is primarily intended for athletes and the elderly.
It can be used by anyone who wishes to use an undenatured type II collagen food supplement, and who wants to benefit from the positive effects of its micronutrients on connective tissues and normal collagen formation.
How can I use it and can I combine it with other food supplements?
We recommend using UC-II® only once a day, you can use it at any time of the day, as it has no compounds that interfere with rest.
You can also use it with or without food, although we generally recommend using the capsules with food to improve absorption and reduce any possible digestive discomfort associated with fasting by sensitive individuals.
UC-II® can be combined with any other food supplement, there are no known negative interactions with any compound. It is usually recommended together with:
- Evoflex.
- Boswellia serrata extract (Boswellin®).
- Ultra Omega-3 TG 1000mg.
