The World Health Organization says that 10 grams of collagen per day should be taken every day for at least 3 months.<\/p>\n<p>Today, collagen is known especially for protecting skin integrity, fighting joint rheumatism and melting of joint cartilage. Regardless of male or female, nearly eighty percent of the body is made up of collagen. Approximately 80% of our muscle tendons and 75% of the skin are collagen.<\/p>\n<p>When we start to consume, the body first sends this consumed collagen to bone, cartilage, liver connective tissue and other areas that need it. After the needs of other parts of the body are completed, it sends the consumed collagen to the skin. For this reason, we can see the clearest ethics in consumption in the second and third months. With the advancing age, the production in the body also experiences a great decrease.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Collagen-Types\"><\/span>Collagen Types<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-292384\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/4f7df83d-2894-e511-bbe9-14feb5cc13c9.jpg\" alt=\"collagen\" width=\"750\" height=\"501\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/4f7df83d-2894-e511-bbe9-14feb5cc13c9.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/4f7df83d-2894-e511-bbe9-14feb5cc13c9-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There is no single type of collagen in our body.

Before using these supplements, individuals should learn about the safety of the product and use expert-approved products. Apart from these supplements, individuals who want to increase collagen production should pay attention to their food consumption and consume some foods that support their production. Some foods that support its production;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>bone broth<\/li>\n<li>The fish<\/li>\n<li>leafy greens<\/li>\n<li>roaming chicken meat<\/li>\n<li>Egg<\/li>\n<li>Cashew<\/li>\n<li>soy milk<\/li>\n<li>Peanut types<\/li>\n<li>Cheese<\/li>\n<li>Potato<\/li>\n<li>Almond<\/li>\n<li>Tomatoes<\/li>\n<li>Pumpkin seeds<\/li>\n<li>Kiwi<\/li>\n<li>Citrus<\/li>\n<li>Avocado<\/li>\n<li>Garlic<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the absence of vitamin C, its production in the body decreases.

Clinical studies show that we can see its effects in our body at least 3 months after we start using 10 grams of collagen every day regularly.<\/p>\n<p>If you want it to be more effective while using it, you should definitely use vitamins that increase the absorption of collagen together. Vitamin C increases and supports its absorption in the body. If the supplement you are using contains vitamin C, you do not need to take an extra vitamin C. But if the product contains only collagen, you need to consume extra vitamin C externally. If you want to find out what is missing from the vitamins and minerals in your body, you can easily find out which minerals and vitamins you lack with a blood test from the nearest hospital.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"About-Supplements\"><\/span>About Supplements<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-292352\" src=\"https:\/\/ceotudent.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/kolajen-takviyesi-hap-olarak-mi-toz-formda-mi-alinmali-pic-943-e1664988222147.jpg\" alt=\"reinforcement\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It should always be our first priority to meet the deficiency in our body naturally.
