Everyone who reads my threads is already tired of me always repeating the same thing

Collagen, bone broth, gelatin, glycine...

I always knew about its importance, but in the last few months I've been reading more and more about this topic and the more I read, the more I recognize the importance it has:

From your skin to your height and even your personality, collagen is very important.

VZIrlm_q2EOanDiy7Dj9a87oyWOi-nazyiJ22sxmsD3YS6eot-0RlW3lh-jZ4pOT5ZwoADWvofLd7hfNAox4EC8S3MpSITDMmV9eHkN-hGh6YuOBrqNZoTIlMkvOVRb0sSUC9uM


Collagen is a protein that makes up 50% of all proteins in the body.

Collagen is mainly composed of 4 amino acids.

That's why the foundation of maximizing your collagen is getting an abundance of these amino acids, which are present in gelatinous foods.

These foods can be: broths, bone marrow, meat with bones and tendons, cartilage, sardines, shellfish, chicken thighs, chicken feet, organs, and other gelatinous foods (gelatin powder is my favorite).

(In addition to that, you also need zinc, copper, vitamin C for proper collagen synthesis.)

Collagenmaxxing matters, because it is CRUCIAL for almost every facial feature.

Collagen is the component that your lips are made of, for example, more collagen means better looking lips.

Collagen synthesis also affects the appearance of our eyes.

Upper eyelid exposure is caused by a lack of elasticity in the hood of the eye, and guess what, that hood is made of collagen, so upper eyelid exposure is a sign of low collagen.

The cartilage of the nose is made of collagen, and a turned-up nose (like that of Scandinavians) is due to a high level of collagen, more collagen can make your nose more upturned.

Collagen is also very important for height and bone development.

Many people don't know this, but the body first creates a collagen structure and only then does hydroxyapatite (calcium/phosphorus) get deposited on it.

Without collagen you will not have bones / with insufficient collagen you will have fewer bones (and ultimately less height)

This graph analyzes the consumption of animal protein and height of each country.

(Animal protein contains more amino acids necessary for collagen than vegetable protein.)

SKIN BEAUTY

Your skin is made up of 80% collagen, wrinkles are caused by a lack of collagen, if your skin does not look radiant and youthful, you need more collagen.

Dark circles are most often caused by lack of sleep, lack of cheekbone height, or thin skin under the eyes and this thin skin under the eyes is caused by... that's right, lack of collagen.

GLYCINE

Glycine is the main amino acid of collagen and gelatinous proteins.

This amino acid has many effects on our health beyond the construction of collagen.

Glycine is crucial for natural bile production, is anti-inflammatory, reduces stress, increases GABA and HGH.

It is also central to the creation of CREATINE and GLUTATHIONE.

By including gelatinous proteins we not only help the health of the skin but also the entire organism...

MISCONCEPTION

A lot of people will say "you don't need to consume gelatin/collagen, your body already produces it on its own" but that's only half true.

Glycine for example is a non-essential amino acid which means that our body makes it but only 2.5g per day which is very little.

For the body to produce it you don't need much, but for the body to produce abundant amounts, that's another story.

The average human consumes between 1.5 and 3 grams of glycine in their diet, while we need between 40 and 60g per day for optimal health.

Studies show that simply increasing glycine intake by 10 grams increases collagen synthesis by 200% (without doing anything else) so consuming a lot of gelatin IS in fact necessary.

You should collagenmaxx and mog everyone in the room when you enter any place

Interesting af. Glycine and gelatin consumption is mandatory

A microneedling device can increases topical collagen production
It is true, microneedles slightly penetrate the surface of the skin, stimulating fibroblasts to increase production and repair the damage.

there is a lot of evidence in this regard

also red light therapy has a LOT of evidence

if we apply all these tools together BINGO
