Collagen Supplements in Pakistan

WHAT IS COLLAGEN?

Collagen is found throughout the body, making it the most abundant kind of protein in mammals. It is found in the skin, joints, connective tissues, teeth, bones, and ligaments. Collagen gives structure to all these tissues, strengthening each organ.

Our body produces it naturally, however, after the age of 24-25 a person loses 1 percent of collagen every year. Sun exposure can also break down the collagen in the skin. Therefore, many individuals start using collagen supplements to help maintain collagen levels in the body.

ABOUT COLLAGEN SUPPLEMENTS

Generally, there are 28 different types of collagen found in the body. Only five of those types of collagen are used in the supplements. Collagen supplements are mainly derived from animal sources such as porcine, bovine, fish, and marine sources. Some are also synthetically derived from other sources, such as yeast and plant cultures. Collagen supplements are available in both powder and capsule forms. Collagen powders can be mixed into water, milk, coffee, tea, or baked goods.

Safe dosage: according to research and health practitioners, 2.5–15 grams of collagen per day is the most effective and safe dosage to consume.

Effectiveness: results may vary from person to person. However, studies show that it takes anywhere between 4-12 weeks for an individual to see noticeable benefits.

Side effects: collagen supplements are safe to consume with mild to no adverse side effects. It is recommended to always follow the correct dosage.

COLLAGEN SUPPLEMENT BENEFITS

There are several health benefits related to bone, skin, hair, joint, gut health, and muscle associated with collagen supplementation. Here is a rundown on benefits:

IMPROVES SKIN HEALTH

Supplementation with collagen can help in skin's suppleness, hydration, and strengthening. As you get older, your body produces less collagen, which causes wrinkles and dry textured skin. By reducing wrinkles and resulting in improvements in skin elasticity and hydration, it may help slow down the aging process of your skin.

PREVENTS JOINT PAIN AND BONE LOSS

The bone mass in your body also declines with age, just as collagen does. Additionally, it encourages the production of collagen in your tissues and preserves the integrity of your cartilage, the rubbery tissue that protects your joints. Additionally, collagen can aid in preventing the bone loss that causes osteoporosis. It can increase bone mineral density which lessens the risk of osteoporosis and weak bones.

PREVENTS HAIR DAMAGE AND BRITTLE NAILS

A collagen supplement could make your nails stronger by improving their brittleness. It can also help strengthen hair, reducing damage and roughness. Furthermore, it may help you grow your hair and nails at a faster rate.

INCREASES MUSCLE MASS

Collagen is a crucial part of skeletal muscle since it is the most dominant protein in the body. In those with decreased muscle mass due to aging, collagen supplements can assist in increasing muscle mass. Moreover, the synthesis of muscle proteins like creatine and the stimulation of muscle growth following exercise may both be facilitated.

IMPROVES GUT HEALTH

Poor digestion or intestinal permeability (a leaky gut syndrome) may be treated with collagen supplements, due to its strengthing properties.
