I take Noble Collagen to support my joints and help me feel like me again.

Optimal joint health requires a full spectrum approach. Our formula combines type II collagen for cartilage renewal, boswellia, traditionally valued for joint care and comfort, manganese to support connective tissue, and vitamin C for antioxidant protection - targeting all aspects of joint function for improved mobility, reduced discomfort, and lasting joint resilience.
UC-II collagen is backed by over 20 studies, including eight human clinical trials over two decades. Research highlights its benefits for animals, healthy individuals, and those with osteoarthritis. Studies have demonstrated that UC-II improved joint flexion, range of motion, joint comfort and mobility.
Boswellia, or Indian frankincense, has been valued for centuries in Ayurvedic and Middle Eastern medicine. Used in sacred ceremonies and praised as 'Guggul', a dried gum resin, in Sanskrit texts as early as 1700 BC, highly regarded for its medicinal properties.
Joints are pivotal junctions in our body that do more than just connect bone to bone; they enable the fluidity of motion that carry us through our days. From the simple act of walking to lifting a child, joint health is the silent foundation upon which our daily lives are built.
Staying active as we age is essential for a joyful, fulfilling life. Movement and mobility lay the foundation for independence, whether it’s the freedom of a morning run or the calm of a yoga flow. Embracing all forms of movement celebrates life’s potential, supporting both physical health and mental well-being.
The reason our Noble Collagen is in a capsule is because it utlises Type II collagen. This type does not need to be hydrolysed to exert it's action in the body. Its preserved structure in a capsule enables it to be absorbed more efficiently.
UC-II is a type of undenatured Type II Collagen clinically proven to support the integrity and flexibility of joint cartilage. Early improvements in promoting joint comfort, mobility and flexibility may be noticed at a low 40mg dose from only 3 weeks to 42 days. The most significant, noticeable and sustained benefits may be gained after 3 months of long-term, consistent daily use. It has a unique mechanism of action, different to that of Type I Collagen found in True and Wild as it signals the immune system to build new joint cartilage. It also has a different structure to the Type I Collagen (True and Wild) as it is not ‘hydrolysed’ but rather ‘undenatured’ which means it has a different mechanism of action.
Yes, True and Wild contain Type I 'hydrolysed' collagen peptides. Type II Collagen is described as 'undenatured' collagen. These serve different purposes in the body. While Type II is focused on joint health, improving joint pain and mobility issues, Type I provides general support to whole body health and supports skin, hair, nails, bones and generalised support for joints. We recommend taking True or Wild Collagen to support whole body health. Those with specific health goals around joints and mobility would benefit from the additional, targeted benefits from Noble Collagen.
Our Type II Collagen is sustainably sourced from chicken sternum cartilage. This source is specifically chosen because it naturally contains a high concentration of Type II Collagen, which is beneficial for joint health.
You should always speak to your doctor or midwife before introducing any new supplements or dietary changes during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Due to ethical constraints, studies in pregnant and breastfeeding individuals are limited, so we are unable to make specific recommendations.
UC-II hasn't been specifically studied during pregnancy and Boswellia also has cautionary advice during this time, therefore we do not recommend Noble Collagen whilst pregnant. If in doubt, please consult your healthcare provider.
Occasionally forgetting is unlikely to impact results but consistent and long-term supplementation is key for optimal results. Use our Ritual Case to ensure you never forget your daily wellness ritual.
UC-II has an extremely high safety profile. Boswellia is generally considered safe for use although not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We should always advise consulting healthcare providers before starting any new supplement, especially for those with pre-existing medical conditions or taking other medications.
This supplement contains collagen derived from chicken so it is not vegetarian/vegan friendly.
Collagen is categorised into different 'types', with each grouping having its own unique characteristics. So far, at least 28 different types of collagen have been identified, with around 90% of the collagen in the body consisting of types I, II, and III. Type I and Type III Collagen are the forms most commonly found in skin, bone, teeth, ligaments, organs, and tendons. Meanwhile, Type II Collagen is the primary protein in cartilage, the connective tissue protecting our bones at the joints. The degradation of cartilage is a significant cause of joint discomfort, disease, and loss of function over time.
Along with numbered types, collagen also has structural variations across different forms. There are two main structural variations to be aware of—undenatured and hydrolysed collagen. Hydrolysed collagen—the form our Type I Collagen takes—has been broken down or 'denatured' into smaller molecules. ‘Undenatured’ or ‘native’ Type II Collagen keeps its three-dimensional structure intact and has a uniquely effective mechanism of action that targets the joints.

"I’ve been taking True collagen and noble collagen capsules for nearly a year now. I do see a difference especially with my hair especially, it feels fuller and less dull. I rate all the Ancient and Brave products I use, not just for the personal benefit but for the information , care, authenticity of each and source of each product Thank you"
"Does it work? I think so. I take a powder in the morning and a noble collagen cap in the evening. Frustratingly draining hip and knee aches disappear as long as I take both. I don’t look noticeably younger but work with challenging, often sweary children so without the collagen I might look 20 years older : )"
"I'm just about to complete my 2nd month on Noble Collagen & starting to notice improvements. I also use Ancient & Brave's True Collagen. Using both together I've really started to notice improvements in my skin, energy, cognition and overall wellbeing. I also use True Magnesium which hs helped my sleep and general calmness."
"Taking it daily is so much easier as it’s a capsule! Love that it’s a capsule and not a powder. Wish I could take the other collagens in the same way. Love the little refill pouch that arrives when needed. Sad to say the packaging is too large & overkill for what’s inside which seems wasteful. I always feel bad as it goes straight in the bin."
"I started taking noble collagen with pure collagen 3 weeks ago and I can see already my skin looking better. However, having sensitive digestive system, since taking collagen, I suffer unpleasant side effects with my gut. I have been forced to pause my routine and will try again to re- introduce progressively collagen in a couple of months."
"I really love this way of taking collagen. I have the exact number for my daily ritual and I know if I forget it or have taken it. Optimal for me in my dotage. No taste and it helps to boost radiance and has actually been helping with healing from a surgery I had very recently. These products are great quality and I don’t see myself not having them."
"Despite all the controversies, i thought there is no harm in trying and I got a recommendation from a trusted small business owner (whose silk oil products I have been using for years). I have had shoulder and glute pain for over a year and been seeing physio. So it might have been a combination of everything else i have been doing but my shoulder and glute problem seems to have almost gone in the last 4 weeks. I have been taken Noble Collagen for 2 months but will continue with it."
"Having tried other supplements and been disappointed with unrealistic promises never mind excessive prices I feel the positive benefits of Noble Collagen. It’s easy to take with no negative side effects. I’ve just completed my second month and see the benefit in my hair and nails. The website is easy to navigate and there is detailed information available."
"I have taken this before but had to stop for financial reasons. I restarted after I had had a knee injury some months before which was very very slowly recovering. Within a few weeks I could feel a real benefit in the decrease in discomfort and increase in mobility. I really have to remember "what price your well being" as I have a tendency to stop things once I feel better and then not join up the dots when my well being decreases, or not really noticing that my well being is decreasing. Life is always going up and down but there are amazing things we can do to support ourselves through those ups and downs and products like these are absolute gems 🙏🙏🙏"
"Les’s joint pain, healthy looking hair, skin & nails. Great product, great packaging. I will definitely be re-ordering from Ancient & Brave."
