Collagen

Collagen




Collagen had became a well-known term to us nowadays especially women...We knew that collagen is essential to keep us looks young but how far do we know about collagen??







Collagen  is a group of naturally occurring proteins found in animals, especially in the flesh and connective tissues of vertebrates. It is the main component of connective tissue, and is the most abundant protein in mammals, making up about 25% to 35% of the whole-body protein content.



Some people refer to collagen as the glue that holds the body together. Without it, the body would, quite literally, fall apart. It works with keratin to provide the skin with strength, flexibility, and resilience. As people age, however, collagen degradation occurs, leading to wrinkles. As such, it is an important substance for those looking for ways to fight the visible effects of aging on the skin.

It keeps our skin supple and elastic and it supports our joints for easier and more flexible movements.  Collagen is also known to help keep our hair and nails strong and healthy looking.
