Collagen is one of the important proteins that the body naturally produces.
Collagen is made up of amino acids - it is necessary for various systems and organs.
The process of natural collagen production slows down with age, and the body, in fact, begins to use it according to its priorities. Collagen deficiency is visually noticeable in the appearance of wrinkles or age lines on the skin - at a certain age, the skin also loses elasticity and the musculoskeletal system becomes significantly weaker.
Collagen can be called a silent warrior, because this protein really fights every second to ensure that the skin, joints, muscles and circulatory system function properly. Imagine that you have a well-oiled mechanism in your body, filled with the necessary fat, each component of which ensures the harmonious functioning of bones, muscles, blood vessels and other systems.
The following clinical signs are characteristic of collagen deficiency:
- Wrinkles, lines;
- Osteoarthritis and joint pain;

- Cellulite;
- Osteopenia;
- Organ prolapse;
- Sunken cheeks and eyes;
- Blood pressure and circulation problems;
