Collagen and Skin
Seventy-five percent of the dermis is composed of collagen, which forms a network of fibrous collagen, providing skin tension and elasticity. At the same time, collagen in the dermis is also a nutritional supply station for the epidermis and its appendages (hair) and transports water to the epidermis.
Collagen plays an important role in skin. Collagen plays an important role in skin growth, repair and nutrition. Collagen makes cells plump, fills the skin, keeps the skin elastic and moist, and keeps the skin delicate and smooth. Collagen is one of the two key factors in skin health, anti-wrinkle and moisturizing.
Collagen and bone
70% to 80% of the organic matter in the skeleton is collagen. When the skeleton is formed, sufficient collagen fibers must be synthesized to form the framework of the skeleton. Therefore, collagen is called the bone in the skeleton.
Collagen fibers have strong toughness and elasticity. If a long bone is compared to a cement pillar, then the collagen fibers are the reinforced frame of the pillar, and the lack of collagen is like the use of inferior steel bars in buildings, the risk of breaking is on the verge of death.
Collagen and Muscle
Collagen is not the main component of muscle tissue, but it is closely related to muscle growth. Collagen supplementation can promote growth hormone secretion and muscle growth in growing adolescents. For adults who want to keep fit, building strong muscles also requires collagen supplementation.
Collagen and hair
The key to the health of hair lies in the nutrition of the basic subcutaneous tissue of the scalp. As mentioned earlier, collagen located in the dermis is the nutrition supply station for the epidermis and its appendages, which are mainly hair and nails. Lack of collagen, dry and bifurcated hair, nails easy to break gray and glossy.
Like skin, hair itself is made up of collagen. A cross section of a hair can be seen under a microscope: the center is the hair marrow, the middle is collagen, the outermost layer is hair scales. Collagen mainly controls the thickness, elasticity and wetness of hair. Hair scales are a very fragile tissue, which wears away when heated by friction, while collagen in the inner layer is stimulated and decomposed.
Therefore, to have a beautiful hair, we should not only make superficial articles, but also cure the symptoms. The way to cure the symptoms is to supplement collagen and nourish subcutaneous tissue, so as to promote the health of hair and nails and maintain the soft and shiny hair and nails.
Collagen and breast enlargement
The effect of collagen on breast enlargement has been well known. Breast is mainly composed of connective tissue and adipose tissue, and the upright and plump breast depends largely on the support of connective tissue. Collagen is the main component of connective tissue. "In connective tissue, collagen and polysaccharide protein are often interwoven into a network structure, resulting in a certain mechanical strength, which is the support of human body curve."
