Another of these health food thinggy...
Collagen is synthesized in the body by fibroblasts and that's hwo
you get a scar after a cut or surgery. You get plenty of collagen
in the food but whatever you eat, it will be broken down in the gut
anyway. I fail to see how taking collagen tablets will translate
into collagen in the body and more importantly, where you want the
cvollagen to go.
There are also different types of collagen ranging from those inthe
skin to the tough fibres of tendons. I cannot see how intact of
collagen can dictate how sort of collagen is produced, where it is
produced and to what quanitity it is produced.
