Brilio.net - Smooth, supple skin that is free from wrinkles or fine lines is the dream of many people, especially women. However, as we age, the elasticity and firmness of the skin begins to decrease, resulting in the appearance of fine lines. This decrease is caused by the reduction of several important proteins in the body, especially collagen.

Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the human body. It serves as a major component of connective tissues, including skin, bones, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. Collagen plays a crucial role in maintaining the elasticity and strength of skin tissue.

When you are young, your body is able to produce enough collagen to keep your skin supple and firm. However, as you age, this collagen production decreases. As a result, your skin becomes thinner, drier, and loses its elasticity.

To reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging, it is important to increase collagen production. One way to do this is by consuming collagen drinks. In addition to using tamarind mixtures, there are other ingredients that can be used.

One example is the method used by YouTuber Kayla Chandler in a five-minute video. She uses three types of fruit: blueberries, lemons, and avocados. Each of these fruits has unique benefits and nutritional content.

Blueberries are known as one of the best sources of antioxidants. This fruit contains vitamins C and K which can help increase collagen production. Vitamin C plays an important role in collagen synthesis by helping to form proline and lysine. In addition, the antioxidants in blueberries protect existing collagen from free radical damage.

Lemons are an excellent source of vitamin C. This content can increase collagen levels in the body and help repair damage from sunlight and free radicals.

Avocados are rich in vitamin E which functions to maintain collagen in the skin. In addition, the healthy fats in avocados help maintain skin moisture and suppleness.

In addition to the three main ingredients, there are also other additional ingredients such as hemp seeds. These seeds contain amino acids that strengthen connective tissue in the skin and vitamin E that supports collagen production and moisturizes the skin. The antioxidant properties of hemp seeds also function to protect the skin from free radicals.

Other useful additional ingredients are almond butter which provides extra moisture and collagen peptide which contains amino acids to increase collagen production. Bone marrow extract is also rich in vitamins A and B12 which support fat burning.

By utilizing this combination of ingredients, skin care can be done naturally to achieve the desired results: smoother, supple, and younger looking skin.

That's the explanation of the benefits and content of each ingredient. For those of you who are curious about how to make it, let's see the information below.
