Collagen is a structural protein that is the basic building block of connective tissue. It accounts for about 1/3 of the total protein mass in the body, where more than a dozen types of this protein are distinguished. Collagen is a key protein of the skin, determining its firmness and elasticity. Collagen also forms bones, tendons and cartilage.
Collagen levels decline with age
As we age, the amount of collagen in the body decreases. For this reason, collagen is often referred to as the "protein of youth." Among other things, exposure of the skin to UV radiation also contributes greatly to the decrease in collagen levels in the skin. A visible sign of reduced collagen in the skin is a decrease in its elasticity and the appearance of wrinkles.
Assimilability of collagen
Collagen is a large protein that is broken down in the digestive tract into individual amino acids. These amino acids - in case of deficiency - can then be absorbed further down the gastrointestinal tract and be used for the body's own collagen synthesis.
In conclusion, Apollo's Hegemony Fish Collagen is especially recommended for physically active people, as well as for the elderly, whose bodies contain noticeably lower amounts of collagen.
