Collagen Kardashian Endorsed - What's the Fuss.
Well its supposedly a wonder drug, like a lot of vitamins it takes a long sustained period to see results, so we break down Colllagen and look at why its so important to your bodies and how and why it helps as you get older.
Collagen is a protein responsible for healthy joints and skin elasticity, or stretchiness. It's in your bones, muscles, and blood, comprising three quarters of your skin and a third of the protein in your body. As you age, your existing collagen breaks down, and it gets harder for your body to produce more.
Collagen is the most common protein in your body. It’s the main component of connective tissues that make up several body parts, including tendons, ligaments, skin, and muscles.
There are a lot more collagen supplements available on the market and these are predominately hydrolysed, which means broken down, making it a lot easier for the body to absorb the nutrients.
So there are 6 main benefits of Collagen, the first is Skin health, this is often the most obvious as its the first to absorb the lost collagen it requires, giving it a better glow. The 2nd is Joint health as like the skin it needs this protein on ready supply and collagen helps with this. The 3rd and one of the hardest to track is bone health, as we get older our bone density in general decrease as our mobility and movement tends to reduce. Collagen absorption, has been proven to help with bone health. This also assists with no 4 which is muscle mass, as the reduce requirement for collagen production often results in a greater result in muscle mass. The last two benefits aren't proven just yet, they include improved heart health by the collagen providing support to the structure of your arteries and finally there's other benefits, none of which are extensively studied and include gut health, brain health & weight loss.
