The barrier to progress: weakening connective tissue
During intense physical exertion (running, weight training), supporting tendons and ligaments, which have a poorer blood supply, is especially important. Repetitive strain puts tendons and connective tissues to a severe test, making their targeted support an essential part of an active lifestyle.
GALLMET Joint + Cartilage:
- Stronger ligaments: It specifically supports the resilient Type I collagen and elastin that build tendons.
- Tear protection: Tested on athletes – proven to maintain the strength of the Achilles tendon and ligaments, even during intense training sessions.
- Better training performance: Among the users of the active ingredients, 62% reported a significant improvement in joint comfort during sports.

The unique formula of Gallmet Joint + Cartilage provides maximum support for heavier strain:
Support for tendons and connective tissues during increased physical strain (Ovomet®): Ligaments and tendons are based on Type I collagen and elastin. In a study conducted on CrossFit athletes, 300 mg of Ovomet® daily helped maintain the biomechanical stability of the Achilles tendon under intense strain and showed a favourable change in subjective joint comfort, while this deteriorated by 37.5% in the placebo group.10 Participants also reported a 62.1% increase in subjective joint comfort.10

Frequently Asked Questions
- Does eggshell membrane also help with recovery after sports?
Yes, according to clinical studies, Ovomet® effectively supports the protection of tendons and ligaments. In athletes performing CrossFit, ultrasound studies have proven that 300 mg of eggshell membrane daily preserves the stability of the Achilles tendon and significantly accelerates recovery after strain, while the athletes reported 62.1% better joint comfort.10 - How does the protection of tendons differ from that of cartilage?
While Type II collagen dominates the structure of cartilage, tendons and ligaments consist of exceptionally strong Type I collagen and flexible elastin, which Ovomet® contains in a natural form.3, 9
