Today, along with skin care such as using sunscreen, taking collagen supplements is recommended for people who care about the health and youth of their skin.
Collagen
Collagen is one of the most abundant proteins in the body that makes the skin firm and firm. This protein is destroyed with age after 20 years old and on the other hand, its production decreases. In this case, the skin gradually looks loose and wrinkled and wrinkles appear on the skin.
Of course, factors such as sunlight, pollution and free radicals, stress, lack of sleep and smoking also cause collagen destruction.
Collagen can be supplied to the body in two ways: one is through the consumption of food sources containing protein such as pepper, citrus fruits, avocado… and the other is the consumption of supplements containing collagen.
According to the latest research, supplements containing collagen have no side effects for the body and are consumed daily in Western countries.
In order to achieve results, you must take collagen supplements daily and routinely to stimulate collagen production in the long term, and use vitamin C and retinol along with it.
According to the advice of doctors, these supplements should be taken every day for three months, and a month’s rest is needed, and then continue in the same way.
The effects of collagen supplements include:
- Preventing premature aging and increasing skin firmness
- Removing skin wrinkles
- Hydration
- Preventing skin loosening after dieting
- Increasing the impression of gel and botox
- Healing scars and eczema
- Removing sunburn spots and licks
- Removal of stretch marks
