Fit & gesund mit Kollagen

Our body owes much of its firmness to the protein collagen. It is the most abundant protein in the body, making up 38 percent, and is a key component of connective tissue. Collagen regenerates and improves the condition of the skin, bones, ligaments, joints, and muscles. A deficiency leads to premature skin aging and loss of elasticity, as well as tendon and joint injuries. The author emphasizes the importance of paying sufficient attention to this protein. She explains which foods can meet the body's needs, how to manage collagen deficiency, and how to prevent osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, skin issues, and brittle nails. Magnesium and vitamin C play a crucial role in this, as they stimulate the production of the body's own collagen. This book fills a gap in the market, as there is little literature available on the topic of collagen.
