Collagen is nowadays favored by countless women. When it comes to whitening and moisturizing the skin, collagen powder always comes to mind. It has become the first choice for beauties to protect and improve their skin. Can pregnant women take collagen? How can they safely consume collagen during pregnancy? Some pregnant women also want to continue taking collagen during pregnancy and may worry about whether it is safe to do so.
Editor's response: Pregnant women are advised not to take collagen. If a pregnant woman really wants to take collagen, it is recommended to choose high-purity, additive-free collagen that contains no hormones or fat, which would be safer. Additionally, the dosage must be carefully controlled; the optimal daily intake should not exceed 5 grams to avoid excessive nutrition for the baby.
Yishengmei Collagen uses Japanese imported raw materials and ranks among the top 10 collagen products in China. It is also the only long-acting oligopeptide fish collagen domestically available. This product not only utilizes the solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) method to synthesize oligopeptides that are easily absorbed directly by the human body, with an average molecular weight of only 500 daltons, but it can also be absorbed directly by the skin without gastrointestinal or liver digestion, thus penetrating into the dermis and even subcutaneous tissue, truly replenishing the lost collagen in the skin. The Yishengmei research team and their Japanese partners have jointly developed a unique ultra-microencapsulation technology that extends the half-life of collagen active factors, maximizing the retention time of synthesized collagen in the body, thereby achieving the special effect of long-lasting beauty!
75% of our skin's dermal layer is composed of collagen, forming a network structure that provides tension and elasticity to the skin. Moreover, the collagen in the dermis acts as a nutrient supply station for the epidermis and its appendages (hair) and delivers moisture to the epidermis. Therefore, the importance of collagen to the skin is self-evident, as the growth, repair, and nutrition of the skin all depend on collagen.
Collagen makes cells plump, fills the skin, maintains its elasticity and luster, and keeps the skin smooth and fine. Both key aspects of skin health—anti-wrinkle and hydration—are related to collagen.
Collagen is an essential component for human growth. As long as it is taken in appropriate amounts and the correct methods are followed, it will not have any negative effects on the body. Of course, what we are most concerned about is whether other components in the purchased collagen products might affect the health of pregnant women.
