Dermatologist Alexander Bekanov told how to help the body produce its own collagen.

First of all, the expert explained that collagen is a type of protein found in connective tissue. It gives a certain structure to the skin and bones, so it plays an important role in the aging process.

With age, the production of collagen in the body decreases, which essentially reduces the firmness of the joints, and wrinkles appear on the skin.

However, the expert emphasized that it is possible to improve the production of the substance in the body. This requires lifestyle modifications.

Therefore, it is recommended to avoid excessive consumption of foods with a high glycemic index.

“In concepts of aging, there are a number of inconsistencies for something like collagen glycation (the result is the tightening of the collagen chains). But nevertheless, recommending nutritional monitoring has a number of parallel advantages,” the dermatologist explained.

In addition, the specialist recommends quitting smoking. The fact is that among the many harmful effects of this habit, cigarette smoke contains substances that negatively affect the synthesis of collagen in the skin, as well as the renewal of its structure.

In addition, the negative effects of ultraviolet radiation, which directly contribute to the rapid destruction of collagen fibers, should be minimized. At the same time, in parallel, direct sunlight provokes the accumulation of abnormal elastin, which leads to the production of an enzyme that breaks down collagen. Also, an excess of UV rays is an external source of the formation of free radicals, the main target of which is collagen.
