A famous plastic surgeon shared the secret to fighting aging, naming the #1 supplement that helps preserve youthful skin and slow down the body's aging process, RBC-Ukraine reports.

Which supplement slows down aging

According to the plastic surgeon, the most effective remedy is collagen – a protein that plays a key role in maintaining skin elasticity, joint health, and hair health.

Why collagen is important

Collagen is the body's main structural protein, which provides:

  • Skin elasticity and firmness.
  • Joint and bone health.
  • Hair and nail condition.

As we age, collagen production in the body decreases, leading to wrinkles, skin dryness, and loss of tone. This is why collagen supplements are an effective tool for slowing down the aging process.

How to take collagen correctly

Experts recommend choosing:

  • Hydrolyzed collagen – it is more easily absorbed by the body.
  • Supplements in the form of powder or capsules, which can be added to drinks or food.
  • Dosage: 5-10 grams per day to achieve noticeable results.

Consuming vitamin C is also important for collagen synthesis and enhancing the supplement's effects.

Results of taking collagen

According to the plastic surgeon, regular consumption of collagen helps:

  • Reduce the depth of wrinkles.
  • Improve skin elasticity and hydration.
  • Strengthen joints and bones.
  • Improve the condition of hair and nails.
