Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies and serves as the structural foundation for youthful skin, though we naturally lose about 1% annually after age 25. The loss accelerates as we age, affected by factors like UV exposure, smoking, and high-sugar diets, but we can combat this through proper nutrition and lifestyle changes.
• Collagen makes up 30% of the protein in our bodies and gives skin its firmness and elasticity
• UV rays from the sun are a major culprit in breaking down collagen fibers
• Smoking, high-sugar diets, stress, and recreational drugs accelerate collagen loss
• Protein-rich foods like salmon, egg whites, and beans help naturally produce collagen
• Vitamin C from citrus fruits and leafy greens stimulates collagen production
• Hydration and regular exercise increase blood flow and nutrient delivery to skin
• Quality sleep reduces oxidative stress and promotes skin cell repair
• Medical treatments like tretinoin, microneedling, chemical peels, and PRP boost collagen
• Advanced options include CO2 lasers, Skinvive injections, and nanofat treatments
