Collagen: The best ally for the skin

How many times have we read in fashion magazines or beauty blogs the ultimate trick to beautiful skin? Or how many articles exist that reveal the tips infallible ways to achieve beautiful skin "effortlessly"?

At Baïa, we want to tell you the truth about this, and we'd like to tell you that the beauty of your skin doesn't depend on any miracle cream; in fact, it doesn't even depend on a single factor. Many factors contribute to radiant skin, including a healthy diet based on real food, a proper cleansing routine, and using products tailored to your skin type.

Although we have good news, there is a component (which is unknown to many) that will be the perfect ally to enhance the beauty of your skin in a natural, collagen.

As you know, everything in our bodies is connected... that's why it's often said that we are what we eat.

You may not have realized the importance of nutrition in the appearance of our skin, but I'll quickly explain why:

Thanks to food, we produce collagen, which is the most abundant protein in the human body (representing almost 25%) and is also responsible for keeping our skin smooth.

But it is not only important on an aesthetic level,Although most people believe that collagen is only present in the skin, the truth is that it is part of the tissues of all the arteries, joints, organs and cartilage in our body. Almost nothing, right? As if that weren't enough, it's responsible for providing the body's tissues with the necessary flexibility and for keeping our blood vessels strong.

But be careful, as we get older, the amounts our body produces become less and less...

Are you starting to realize how important collagen is?

The main function of collagen is to hold together the tissues of muscles, bones, tendons, skin, and ligaments... Our body is made up of many structures, and collagen is responsible for these connections. It could be said that it is responsible for maintaining the body's firmness and elasticity.

In short, it is responsible for holding together the different elements that make up our body, no small feat, right?

Did you know that humans have 28 different types of collagen in their bodies? Here are the most important ones!

• Type 1: Collagen is present in the dermis, bones, and tendons, among other tissues. It provides elasticity to the body's tissues.
• Type 2: It is responsible for providing strength to tissues. We find it in cartilage.
• Type 3: It supports organs that can contract and expand, for example, muscle or hair tissue.
• Type 4: It is responsible for filtering different substances and is present in the skin.
• Type 5: Its main function is to provide strength to tissues and it is part of all internal tissues of the body and organs.

Collagen is found mainly in foods of animal origin: meat, fish, eggs... What most people don't know is that it is more present in the skin of animals than in the muscle, which is what is usually eaten, so if you are not vegan you can eat the skin and benefit from its high collagen content. Another possibility is through bone broth, since it contains glycine, an amino acid that Help in the creation of collagen.

On the other hand, although plant proteins do not contain collagen, once our body digests and breaks them down, it releases the amino acids needed to produce it. This is why the human body can obtain the nutrients needed for collagen formation from many different foods.

As we've seen, everything related to the human body is interconnected. This means that all the care we give ourselves internally will be reflected externally as well.
