Collagen Boosting Ingredients

Collagen is the most abundant and strong protein in your body, it holds you together and keeps you looking young. Age deteriorates your ability to produce collagen unless you consciously make efforts to help nurture it.  They make up 30% of your total body protein mass and there are numerous ways to boost collagen production in your body. We gathered facts and have recognized the top three ingredients that help boost collagen:

1. Retinoids – Retinoids are a huge family of compounds derived from Vitamin A. It accelerates the skin’s renewal process, improves the elasticity of the skin, and reduces wrinkles. It is most prominent in Retinol, Tretinoin, and Retinaldehyde.
2. Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid) – Vitamin C is a powerful ingredient that is necessary for producing stable collagen molecules. It aids in healing wound healing and helps cross-link collagen molecules. It is a key ingredient for signaling collagen genes to start synthesizing. Gleamfizz has Non-Acidic Vitamin C in it for better absorption and immunity support.
3. AHA (Glycolic, lactic, mandelic) – AHA helps exfoliate dull and dead skin cells. It can also help strengthen the skin’s barrier. It also acts to restore hydration through hyaluronic acid which gives plumper and less fine lines.

Look for supplements that have these ingredients in them and include them in your diet for a healthy lifestyle.
