To maintain healthy skin and joints during fall hikes, consume collagen.

Story by Shin So-young, Health Chosun reporter
 
 
Autumn, with its clear air, is the perfect season for hiking. However, for safe hiking, Skin and joint checks are essential All dry This is because our bodies continuously lose elasticity during the changing seasons. Collagen plays a crucial role in maintaining the body's elasticity. What happens in our bodies if we lack collagen?

◇ Abnormal signals sent by the body during seasonal changes

 

▶Skin Aging = Autumn UV rays are as strong as summer. Continuous exposure to large daily temperature fluctuations and dry environments can cause skin to lose elasticity, become flaky, and age more quickly. Collagen makes up 90% of the dermis layer and plays a crucial role in maintaining skin tissue. To restore elasticity, it's recommended to use collagen cosmetics and oral collagen supplements for intensive care.

 

▶Arthritis Exacerbation = As temperatures drop, muscles tense and blood vessels constrict, worsening arthritis. Collagen makes up 75% of joints and cartilage (excluding water) and 80% of ligaments and tendons. Therefore, a deficiency can exacerbate joint pain. According to a study by the Food Industry Technology Institute, 100 women in their 40s to 70s with knee osteoarthritis who took collagen peptides experienced reduced joint pain and improved physical activity.

▶High Blood Pressure = When exposed to cold weather, the body constricts blood vessels to maintain body temperature, causing blood pressure to suddenly rise. If blood vessel elasticity is low, the blood vessels harden and increase in thickness, unable to absorb blood pressure, leading to increased blood pressure and an increased risk of hypertension. Supplementing with collagen can reduce the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases caused by decreased blood vessel elasticity. In fact, when 30 healthy adults consistently consumed collagen daily for six months, the risk of arteriosclerosis, which leads to myocardial infarction and stroke, decreased, and good cholesterol increased by an average of more than 6%.

 

◇For full body elasticity, consume ‘collagen with the same structure as the body’

 

Collagen plays a vital role in the body, but it decreases every year starting in your 20s and rapidly declines after your 40s. It is important to supplement collagen intake when it becomes deficient. In particular, low-molecular-weight collagen peptides have the same tripeptide (GPH) structure as the body's collagen, so they are absorbed faster in the body than other collagens.

 

In a study of low-molecular-weight collagen peptide intake, it was confirmed that collagen reached the skin, bones, cartilage, and stomach within 24 hours. When choosing a collagen product,

▲Is it a health functional food recognized for its functionality by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety?

▲Is it a low-molecular collagen peptide with the same structure as skin collagen?

▲You must check whether there are results from human application tests.

 

=============

I bought collagen but haven't taken it since summer.

Collagen is also good for joint health.

 

I need to eat well again

I also take care of myself with low-molecular collagen.

    저분자 펩타이드... 어려운 말은 많이 들어보긴 했네요. 콜라겐을 충분히 섭취하기 위해서 가끔 한 번씩 족발을 먹고 있습니다. 얼굴에 뭐 바르지는 않구요. 족발만 먹어도 좀 보충이 될까요?

      저분자 콜라겐이 흡수가 빠르다고 해서 
      저도 별로도 먹고는 있는데, 콜라겐은 족발로 드시나요 ? 
      음식은 그닥 많이 흡수가 된다고 하네요
      엑기스로는 닭뼈가 있다고 하던데요
