Let's discover without further delay the virtues of marine collagen and how you can benefit from it with exquisite and easy-to-make collagen recipes.

The collagen naturally produced by the body decreases with age

You should know that collagen is a substance naturally produced by the body. However, over the years, this production dwindles. We note that, from the age of 25, the production of collagen decreases by 1.5% per year.

The body's collagen stores will then be reduced by 30 % at age 40, 45 % at age 50, and 60 % at age 60.

This can be due to several factors: smoking, sun exposure, stress, a diet high in sugar, etc.

We must therefore find another source of collagen so that our skin remains elastic and healthy. We can then compensate for this loss through food thanks to certain foods rich in collagen such as salmon, avocado, eggs, red fruits or even kiwi, or with the help of food supplements which contain marine collagen. A collagen deficiency will cause skin aging and lead to a lack of joint flexibility.

The benefits of marine collagen

the marine collagen has many advantages. It not only helps to treat skin problems, but also to relieve joint pain and even to help you in your sports practice.

A natural asset against wrinkles

Marine collagen offers a multitude of benefits for the skin. First of all, it has an antioxidant effect that helps fight wrinkles. Studies have proven that the consumption of marine collagen allowed to fight the signs of aging, but also to improve hydration, elasticity and the quality of the epidermis. It should also be noted that the anti-aging effects of marine collagen are increased if it is combined with other substances such as vitamin C or hyaluronic acid.

More flexible joints

Among the benefits of marine collagen, we can also mention its action on the health of our joints. Collagen represents 90% of the composition of bone cartilage and is therefore an essential element of our body. From the age of 25, when the body produces less collagen, it is important to consume it to maintain good joint flexibility. A daily supply of collagen with marine collagen helps to reconstitute bone and joint tissues, but also to replace those that have been damaged. For people suffering from rheumatism, a spa treatment can also significantly reduce the pain felt.

Healthy hair and nails

With a collagen deficiency, the hair can become dull and the nails brittle. the marine collagen is rich in wisteria and proline, amino acids beneficial for the proper growth of tissues and hair. Your nails and hair will grow faster and be stronger. They will be shiny and in great shape thanks to a cure of marine collagen.

Marine collagen, an ally for sport

By helping to strengthen the bones, marine collagen makes it possible to continue the practice of a sports activity even when the years pass. The muscles are also affected and are healthier with a sufficient supply of marine collagen.

the marine collagen now comes in different forms.
