The magic word for young skin is collagen. A heavily expanding protein body in the connective tissue that - using its superb ability to store water - makes the skin smooth and firm. Defective collagen though leads to crinkles, cellulite, saggy breasts, flabby skin and indentations. The connective tissue of the skin is being broken down and built back up in a continuous process running 24 hours a day. These skin processes are influenced by our diet. The synthesis (production) of collagen starts to slow down when we reach 25 and is overtaken by the decomposition processes. "So it's important", say dermatologists, "to turn this process around. This means slowing down the decomposition process and providing massive support for the build-up process." Doing this helps the condition of your skin to be improved dramatically within 60 to 90 days. Collagen makes up around 30% of the total mass of proteins found in the human body and lends the connective tissue its elastic firmness - not just in the skin, but everywhere in the body, including in the organs. It consists of long chains of fibre-like white molecules. These fibres are by far the most solid and firm building materials in the world and are far more resistant then steel fibres at the same density. Astonishingly, these fibres only consist of two amino acids - proline and glycine. The secret of Mother Nature is to twirl up these large molecules into long spirals running anti-clockwise, with three of them interlocked and twisting in a clockwise direction. They are all then bound together by elastic yellow elastin fibres that are just as highly tear-resistant but are still elastic.
