Brilio.net - Everyone, especially women, definitely wants to have a youthful face that doesn't age with age. Various beauty treatments are carried out to achieve the desired skin beauty. Unfortunately, the aging that occurs as we get older becomes a barrier for a number of people.
This aging does not escape the collagen in the body, which begins to decline and causes the skin to lose its natural elasticity and youthfulness. Usually this condition is prevented by using various methods, one of which is consuming collagen drinks.
Collagen is the main structural protein found in the body to provide strength, elasticity and structure to skin, bones, tendons and connective tissue. However, this is only temporary, because collagen production in the body tends to decrease as a person ages. This can cause the skin to lose moisture and elasticity, making the face look old.
To increase collagen production again, you can restore it by consuming drinks made from natural ingredients. Usually this collagen drink is made from vegetables and fruit, as in the video shared by YouTube user vanitarattan. In the video, which is several minutes long, the woman uses two kinds of fruit, namely strawberries and blueberries. The two fruits are then combined with yoghurt and coconut water.
Strawberries and blueberries are good sources of vitamin C. Vitamin C is important in collagen production, as it is a cofactor in collagen formation. Collagen requires vitamin C for its synthesis, so adequate intake of this vitamin can help maintain and increase collagen production in the body.
These two fruits are also rich in antioxidants, such as flavonoids and anthocyanins which help fight free radicals. Free radicals can damage collagen in the skin, so consuming foods rich in antioxidants can help protect collagen and maintain skin elasticity.
Skin looks smooth and youthful with yoghurt.
Yogurt contains protein which is a basic ingredient of collagen. Yogurt contains a number of important vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B complex, vitamin D, calcium and zinc. These vitamins and minerals play a role in maintaining healthy skin and accelerating the cell regeneration process, which can support optimal collagen production.
Yogurt contains lactic acid, which helps gently exfoliate the skin and stimulates the growth of new skin cells. This lactic acid content can increase skin elasticity, and give it a more youthful and radiant appearance.
So how do you make a collagen drink from these ingredients? For those of you who are curious, let's look at the information below, as reported by briliobeauty.net from YouTube/vanitarattan on Saturday (18/11).
