What Collagen?

Collagen is a protein peptide substance found in all our tissues and acts as a “glue” that holds the body together. Its name comes from the Latin “colla”, meaning “glue”.

As already known, our body decreases some of its functions with advancing age or cannot perform them as effectively as before. Collagen synthesis is one of these functions – in fact, collagen synthesis starts to decline a little earlier than others, starting in the mid-20s. Factors such as cigarette smoke, air pollution, TV and computer screens, nutrition, and stress are also effective in reducing this synthesis.

Collagen Supplement

In general, 5,000 – 10,000 mg of hydrolyzed collagen supplements are used to support skin health. It is not easy to get collagen through the diet because it is a large molecule, which is very difficult to absorb and use in the body. For this reason, it is preferred to take hydrolyzed collagen as a supplement or functional food.

Several studies show that 1 to 3 months of collagen supplementation supports skin health and normalizes natural collagen synthesis. One of the best ways to get functional collagen is to get it in dark chocolate, because in this case, it is also possible to benefit from the antioxidant flavonol compounds from cocoa, which protect the skin and prevent free radical damage.
