The level of collagen in the body decreases with age, and this is closely related to the appearance of external signs of aging. According to MedikForum, a high level of collagen in youth ensures good joint mobility, elastic and smooth, wrinkle-free skin. With age, the content of collagen decreases, which is associated with a deterioration in the body’s ability to absorb various nutrients.
The human body cannot produce collagen if it lacks the necessary ingredients – proteins, vitamins and trace elements. As a result, a decreasing amount of collagen contributes to an increasingly pronounced manifestation of the symptoms of aging: the skin loses its density, wrinkles appear; muscles begin to weaken; tendons and ligaments lose their flexibility, stiffness occurs; articular cartilage wears out, pain, osteoarthritis develop.
Some products help partially replenish the loss of collagen.
The list of “anti-aging foods” that promote collagen production includes:
Bone broth.
Foods rich in protein (it contains the amino acids needed to create collagen).
Foods rich in vitamin C, including citrus fruits, red and green peppers, tomatoes, dark green leafy vegetables
Foods with zinc and copper (two more ingredients needed for collagen production), including meat, seafood, walnuts, whole grains, beans.
