GELITA AG wins Frost & Sullivan “European Health Ingredient of the Year Award 2008”

Breakthrough in joint health: GELITA AG, Eberbach, Germany, has launched its innovative FORTIGEL®, a product that has been proven to counteract progressive degradation of joints. For this excellent pioneer work, GELITA has been awarded the Frost &Sullivan “European Health Ingredient of the Year Award 2008”.

Wear and tear of joint cartilage leading to osteoarthritis is becoming more and more of a worldwide problem. Millions of people are affected. Current therapies are mainly geared to treating the symptoms of osteoarthritis, e.g. inflamed and painful joints, but these cannot slow down or cure the disease. FORTIGEL®, however, contains highly purified Bioactive Collagen Peptides® that act prophylactically but also therapeutically, as indicated in the reasoning for the award.
