AYOJAKARTA.COM – Currently there are many collagen products that function to maintain skin elasticity and firmness.
Collagen provides structural support to the connective tissue in the body and acts as a natural adhesive that gives skin strength, shape and firmness, so it can maintain and repair itself.
As we age, the production of collagen in our skin decreases every year, so the tendency for wrinkles and thinning of the skin becomes more visible over time.
Aging is an inevitable part of life, as we age, the body’s production of collagen decreases, usually starting in our mid-20s and continuing gradually thereafter.

The good thing is that the decrease in collagen can be offset or reduced to some extent through our diet.
The following are foods that increase collagen production in the body, directly or indirectly, quoted by AyoJakarta from Healthline, Saturday, September 2, 2023.
1. Bone broth
Although recent studies have found bone broth may not be a reliable source of collagen, this option is by far the most popular.
The trick is to boil animal bones in water, a process believed to extract collagen, then season the stock to add flavor.
Apart from collagen, bone broth also contains calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, glucosamine, chondroitin, amino acids and others, which are good for the body.
2. Chicken
There’s a reason why a lot of collagen supplements come from chicken. If you’ve ever cut up a whole chicken you’ll probably notice a lot of connective tissue in the meat, this tissue is what makes chicken a great source of collagen.
According to several studies, chicken neck and cartilage are parts that can be taken as a source of collagen.
3. Fish
Like other animals, fish have bones and ligaments made of collagen. Some people claim marine collagen is one of the most easily absorbed.
Most of the collagen in fish is in the head, scales and eyeballs.
