Collagen powders, drinks, and pills seem to be all the rage. The proportion of collagen in the skin and in the joints decreases with age, and for this reason, the unstoppable consumption of collagen is born. The multi-billion dollar collagen industry promises that these supplements will improve your hair, skin, and nails, but what does the science say on the subject? Are collagen supplements a scam, or is there scientific validity behind these supplements? In this video, I will try to answer this question: if collagen supplements are a scam. In addition, we will see the most relevant studies that have analyzed the effects of consuming collagen supplements in humans, and on the other hand, we will see which are the supplements and foods that could increase our collagen production naturally. Collagen is the most abundant protein in humans, found in all connective tissue, and performs many important functions in the body. Collagen is essential for skin structure and blood clotting. In addition, it is essential for the construction of skin, bones, ligaments, tendons, and

muscles. We could say that collagen works like the glue that holds everything together. But how is collagen produced in the body? Collagen production begins with procollagen, a molecule made of protein and vitamin C. These proteins are chains of amino acids such as lysine, proline, arginine, and hydroxyproline. As procollagen molecules are produced, these molecules begin to coil together into fibrils. These fibrils continue to be accumulated by the collagen molecules until they become more structured collagen fibers. These fibers begin to clump together and are what provide the structural element to parts of the body such as tendons, hair, skin, and nails. Our body produces collagen on its own, but as we age, this production slows down. And there are four different types of collagen, and then we will see what they are and what function each one has. First, we have type 1 collagen. Most of the collagen in the body is type 1, bones, skin, tendons, ligaments, connective tissue, fibrous cartilage, and

teeth are made of this type of collagen. Then we would have type 2 collagen; this type of collagen forms elastic cartilage in the joints. On the other hand, we would have type 3 collagen; this collagen acts as structural support for organs, muscles, and arteries. And finally, we would have type 4 collagen, and this type of collagen is found in the skin, in the basement membrane, and is important for stability. And by now, you are probably wondering what most collagen supplements are made of, and most collagen supplements are made from animal products, from bones, joints, tendons, and skin. But there are also vegan collagen supplements, and these supplements are made from genetically modified bacteria; specifically, they are made from Pichia Pastoris and yeast. And let's get to the million-dollar question: are collagen supplements a scam? The harsh reality is that collagen supplements are made from collagen proteins, and as the body digests collagen, the proteins are broken down into amino acids. These

amino acids are ingested but not rebuilt in the proper sequence to reform collagen. This means that if we eat collagen, we are not supplementing our body with additional collagen to improve health, for example, of hair, skin, and nails. And what about the studies that suggest that collagen consumption has positive effects on the human body? Indeed, these studies exist. There are studies that suggest that the consumption of collagen can have positive effects on parts of the body such as hair, skin, and nails. And that is that after all, collagen is a protein supplement, and different studies suggest that people who consume a higher amount of protein have better skin quality in terms of elasticity, hydration, and thickness. And it is that the thickness of the dermis is directly related to the signs of aging, and an increase in protein intake decreases the wear of the dermis. On the other hand, we know that collagen peptides are made up of high amounts of the amino acids proline and lysine. Proline increases collagen synthesis in

dermal fibroblasts, and different studies suggest that proline protects against aging caused by ultraviolet rays. On the other hand, glycine is the simplest amino acid, and a study published in 2018 showed that glycine directly increases collagen production. In addition, as a study published in 2017 points out, collagen supplementation can improve intestinal health. And it is that we must not forget that collagen plays a fundamental role in the repair of tissues when they are damaged or injured. Digestive diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease and Crohn's disease damage the intestinal lining, and collagen plays a key role in repairing and maintaining cell structure. But, as a review published in 2019 points out, more clinical studies are needed to understand what the skin effects of oral collagen supplementation are, and while proponents and marketers of oral collagen supplements have marketed these products based on their purported benefits, the Physicians cannot do the same and cannot make such claims without solid and convincing evidence. So what is really interesting is to see what we can do to increase the

natural production of collagen. Science has shown that animal products are not necessary for the production of collagen and, as I explained before, ingested collagen is not the same as absorbed collagen. Collagen synthesis is complex and requires many complementary nutrients and compounds that have to be involved in the body to make it happen. Vitamin C, polysaccharides, copper, silica, zinc, and amino acids are essential elements for our body to produce collagen, and knowing this, a vitamin and mineral deficiency could be slowing down our body's potential to absorb and produce collagen. And of course, as you can imagine, it's always better to get these nutrients through your diet in the form of whole, unprocessed foods than through supplements. And then we are going to see which foods can provide our body with all the necessary nutrients to produce collagen. In the first place, we have foods that provide us with amino acids, such as nuts, seeds, legumes, and whole grains. In second place, we have aloe vera, a plant that has been shown to increase

collagen production. In third place, we have foods rich in silica, such as whole grains and fruits such as bananas and pineapple. In fourth place, we have foods rich in vitamin C, such as red pepper, orange, grapefruit, kiwi, green pepper, and broccoli. And it is that vitamin C plays an important role in the production of procollagen, the precursor in the body of collagen, so obtaining enough vitamin C is essential for the production of collagen. And in fifth place, we have foods rich in vitamin E, such as sunflower seeds, almonds, hazelnuts, pine nuts, peanuts, avocado, and red pepper. And we cannot forget foods rich in zinc and copper, such as whole grains, among which we can find whole wheat pasta, oats, brown rice, and quinoa, nuts such as almonds and cashews, seeds such as sunflower and pumpkin seeds, legumes such as lentils, kidney beans, and edamame, and fruits and vegetables such as dried apricots, mushrooms, and spinach.

As you will see, I have repeated a large number of foods, and, luckily, many of these foods are rich in vitamins and minerals necessary for the production of collagen and to keep our body healthy and strong. And now you may be wondering what effects the consumption of collagen has on our hair. Hair is mainly made up of keratin, and our body uses different amino acids to create keratin. By consuming collagen and other proteins, our body breaks them down into amino acids that it then uses to create new proteins, and there are 11 non-essential amino acids that our body can produce and 9 essential amino acids that you need to acquire through diet. And as we have seen before, the Collagen is mainly made up of three non-essential amino acids: proline, glycine, and hydroxyproline. And proline is also the building block of keratin, so in theory, consuming proline-rich collagen should provide our body with the building blocks for creating hair. However, rigorous studies that

analyze the effects of collagen consumption on hair are lacking, so we do not know for sure if the consumption of this protein can promote hair growth or not. But what we do know is that collagen is not the only protein rich in these three amino acids, proline, glycine, and hydroxyproline. Foods like legumes, whole grains, nuts, and seeds are also rich in these three amino acids. Before continuing, if you like this video, give it a like, and if you are concerned about the health of your hair and your body, subscribe to the channel and hit the bell so you don't miss any video. As you can see, collagen is not a miracle supplement that is magically transported to the skin and cures all our problems. As we have seen in this video, when consuming collagen, our body breaks it down into amino acids, and it has been shown that glycine and proline, the two main amino acids present in collagen, increase collagen production and thus could improve the health of the body, hair, skin, and nails. Additionally, collagen could be

beneficial for gut health. On the other hand, collagen is rich in amino acids that your body needs to build keratin, the protein that forms hair. Even so, we do not have rigorous studies in humans that analyze the effect of collagen consumption on hair growth. That being said, other protein supplements and protein-rich foods can have the same results as consuming collagen. Supplements such as soy and pea proteins and legumes such as lentils and beans are high in proline and glycine and also contain other beneficial amino acids. And it is that collagen supplements are much more expensive than supplements such as soy or pea protein that provide the same benefits and, in addition, provide a greater amount of protein. And one thing that should go without saying is that before considering taking supplements, you should try to improve your diet, and as you can imagine, it is always better to get these essential nutrients for collagen production through the diet in the form of whole foods and not processed, than through supplements. And what you should know is that vitamin C,

polysaccharides, silica, copper, zinc, and amino acids such as proline and glycine are the fundamental elements for our body to produce collagen. And, obviously, it is much more interesting to consume all these elements through the diet or through supplements than to consume collagen supplements to increase the natural production of collagen in our own body, because although collagen contains amino acids such as proline and glycine, it does not contain vitamin C, nor zinc, nor polysaccharides, nor silica, nor copper that are necessary to produce collagen. Do not be fooled by the marketing campaigns of the different companies that try to sell collagen products, since these are not the best alternative to increase the natural production of collagen in your own body. Remember, if you want to increase your collagen production, increase the intake of foods rich in protein, vitamin C, vitamin E, silica, zinc, and copper, and if you want to use supplements to increase your collagen production, the best alternatives are protein supplements such as protein

soy or pea, and supplements containing vitamin C, vitamin E, silica, zinc, and copper.

나이가 들면서 체내 콜라겐이 자연적으로 감소하기 때문에 콜라겐 보충제가 인기를 얻고 있습니다.

업계에서는 모발, 피부, 손톱을 개선할 수 있다고 주장하지만 이러한 주장의 과학적 타당성에 대해서는 논란이 있습니다.

체내 콜라겐 생성은 나이가 들면서 느려지며, 콜라겐에는 4가지 유형이 있으며 각각 다른 기능을 합니다.

콜라겐 섭취가 건강에 미치는 영향

섭취한 아미노산은 체내에서 콜라겐을 재형성하지 않기 때문에 콜라겐 섭취가 모발, 피부, 손톱 개선에 덜 효과적일 수 있습니다.

연구에 따르면 콜라겐 섭취는 피부의 질과 탄력에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있으며, 콜라겐 펩타이드의 프롤린과 글리신은 콜라겐 합성과 생성에 중요한 역할을 한다고 합니다.

자연적으로 콜라겐 생성을 늘리려면 가공되지 않은 자연 식품에서 비타민 C, 다당류, 구리, 실리카, 아연, 아미노산이 풍부한 식단을 섭취하는 것이 좋습니다.

콜라겐 생성에 있어 영양의 역할

실리카, 비타민 C, 비타민 E가 풍부한 식품은 콜라겐 생성에 필수적이며 통곡물, 과일, 견과류에 풍부하게 함유되어 있습니다.

콩류와 씨앗류 같은 식품의 아연과 구리도 콜라겐 합성에 기여합니다.

콜라겐과 단백질이 풍부한 음식을 섭취하면 모발 성장에 필수적인 케라틴을 생성하는 데 필요한 아미노산이 몸에 공급됩니다.

콜라겐 섭취가 모발에 미치는 영향

콜라겐 섭취가 모발 성장에 미치는 영향은 엄격한 인체 연구가 부족하기 때문에 명확하지 않습니다.

콜라겐은 콩류, 통곡물, 견과류, 씨앗에도 함유되어 있는 프롤린, 글리신, 히드록시프롤린이라는 아미노산의 유일한 공급원은 아닙니다.

대두 및 완두콩 단백질과 같은 다른 단백질 보충제도 콜라겐과 유사한 효능을 제공할 수 있으며, 일반적으로 보충제보다는 자연 식품을 통해 콜라겐 생성에 필요한 필수 영양소를 섭취하는 것이 좋습니다.

다당류, 실리카, 구리, 아연, 프롤린과 글리신과 같은 아미노산은 신체의 콜라겐 생성에 필수적인 영양소입니다.

식단이나 보충제를 통해 이러한 성분을 섭취하는 것이 콜라겐 보충제를 복용하는 것보다 더 효과적입니다.

콜라겐 생성을 촉진하려면 단백질, 비타민 C, 비타민 E, 실리카, 아연, 구리가 풍부한 식품에 집중하고 단백질 보충제와 이러한 비타민과 미네랄이 함유된 보충제를 고려해 보세요.
