The body’s most visible tissue and the most obvious place to observe the effects of aging is the skin. Our body's collagen begins to decrease as we age Collagen is a naturally occurring protein in the body that helps to repair skin and keep it strong. As we age, our natural production slows down but certain lifestyle factors can also contribute to the breakdown of collagen, making our skin appear dull and quicken the aging process. Taking collagen supplements is a great way to enhance skin health and provides amino acids that help in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and strengthens the fibers giving the skin a youthful look. Type I collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and the major protein found in skin providing it’s tensile strength and resiliency. Type 3 collagen is found at high levels in cardiovascular tissue and also in newly developing skin. Types 1&3 collagen are often found together in the same tissues because each form complements the structural integrity of the other. Collagen synthesis is a continuous process throughout life. Collagen is essential for growth and repair. Rejuvenation and renewal of every tissue throughout the body requires the production of newly synthesized collagen. However, this process can become less efficient as we age leading to decreased renewal of old tissue. This is manifested internally as a lessened efficiency of organ and tissue function. As the skin ages, the levels of Types 1&3 collagen, as well as elastin, decrease in the dermis resulting in the loss of elasticity. • Contributes to the growth and maintenance of healthy tissues • Tablet form allows for convenient consumption • Travel-sized packing allows for efficient portability • Best Collagen Types 1&3 supports hair, skin, nails, tendons, ligaments and bones; it also supports joint comfort, mobility and quality of life • Collagen is the major structural protein in connective tissue; it helps maintain youthful skin by enhancing the structure and volume • Best Collagen Types 1&3 contains pure collagen protein enzymatically hydrolyzed into low molecular weight peptides for optimal utilization by the body • Doctor's Best makes Collagen Types 1&3 is tablet, capsule and powder
