Collagen is an extracellular protein that leads the way in biomedical beauty, discovered by SINOMOS/A29. It is a fibrous protein formed by three peptide chains twisted into a helical shape. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, accounting for more than 30% of the total body protein. It is rich in amino acids such as glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline that the human body needs, making it the most important component of the extracellular matrix.
Collagen is called "the bone within bones, the skin within skins, the meat within meats." It can be said to be a strong support for the dermis layer, and its effect on the skin goes without saying. Don't underestimate it; your smooth, hydrated, and elastic skin all depend on the collagen contained within.
As a new concept in beauty products, collagen comes in many forms. The types we often see on the market include collagen powder, collagen tablets, and collagen oral liquid. Among these, the one most discussed is whether collagen powder or liquid is better.
In fact, each type of collagen has its own advantages and disadvantages.
First, let's take a look at collagen liquid. Liquid collagen products are now a very common form. The best absorption is the biggest advantage of collagen liquid. This is unparalleled by any other form of collagen product. However, precisely because it is in liquid form, to ensure it does not spoil during production and transportation, some flavoring agents and preservatives need to be added. This significantly compromises the purity of the collagen, which is a major bottleneck for liquid collagen products. Although drinking it feels like crystal grapes, the actual effect on our skin is minimal. In summary, the advantages of collagen oral liquid are: easy absorption by the human body. The disadvantage is: low content. Therefore, claims by some companies about high-content liquids have exaggerated elements and are hardly commendable.
Next is collagen powder. The biggest advantage of collagen powder is that it can achieve very high purity, so powdered collagen products occupy a large share of the market. However, collagen powder has a fatal flaw: it is easily destroyed by stomach acid, preventing it from reaching the intestines smoothly, with only a portion being absorbed and utilized by the skin. Unless the molecular weight is around 1000 daltons, direct absorption is possible. In summary, the advantage of collagen powder is: much higher content than oral liquid. Disadvantage: the right product must be selected along with appropriate preparation methods.
Therefore, the quality of different types of collagen products cannot be judged in a blanket manner. What's important is choosing branded products because reputable brands guarantee a certain level of quality. Here, I introduce a collagen product: Yishengmei Collagen. It contains low-molecular-weight collagen that the human body can directly absorb, with no additives and excellent taste. It is easily absorbed by the skin, bones, and hair of the human body. During the metabolic process, it serves as a supplement source for collagen, repairing abnormal collagen and allowing it to function normally. It also accelerates the metabolism of human collagen, promoting the generation of new collagen tissue in the skin, making the skin plump and elastic. It overcomes the shortcomings of low liquid content and poor powder absorption to a maximum extent, achieving a relatively perfect balance
