The benefit of naturally stimulating collagen production is that collagen will be formed and strengthened in an orderly, structured manner without the risk of allergies or side effects or skin infections.
1. Increase vitamin C supplementation
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) acts as an antioxidant and is an important factor for collagen synthesis.
Vitamin C
We can supplement vitamin C in many ways: eat lots of vegetables and fruits that contain a lot of vitamin C such as papaya, bananas, strawberries, mangoes, oranges, lemons, kiwi and dark green vegetables like cauliflower.
Vitamin C is not stored in the body, so you need to supplement vitamin C daily.
It should be noted that supplementing vitamin C to stimulate collagen synthesis is only truly effective when other ingredients that stimulate collagen production are also fully supplemented, especially when supplemented with probiotics.
2. Supplement important amino acids
Like any other protein in the body, collagen is composed of amino acids – a type of small organic molecule.
Threonine is an essential amino acid, meaning the body cannot produce it on its own, so you need to supplement these amino acids to help your body.
Unlike Threonine, Proline is a non-essential amino acid, meaning your body or other amino acids can produce it on its own.
3. Reduce collagen degradation through sun protection and a moderate, balanced lifestyle
Sunscreen
To ensure enough collagen in the skin, we also need to minimize the loss of collagen available in the body.
Sunlight is considered the number one enemy that accelerates the loss of collagen.
In addition, smoking, not getting enough sleep, or sleeping incorrectly are also causes of collagen depletion in the skin.
4. Exfoliate, massage your face regularly, and use anti-aging products
Proper and timely skin care helps the skin optimally adjust skin conditions, avoid high skin stress, and reduce the effects of skin aging.
Use skin care products with anti-aging ingredients, such as green tea essence, DHEA, Retinol.
5. Look for and use skin care products that contain peptides
Peptides are a type of small protein molecule that stimulate collagen production.
So what is the latest peptide technology?
