Application and Effect
Collagen is very popular in skin care formulations for its strong hydration potential and its ability to bind and retain many times its weight in water. This water-binding and retention ability makes collagen effective for use in skin moisturizers as a skin-protecting agent. It will not leave a feeling of tackiness or dryness on the skin, especially when used in hydrolyzed or soluble forms. As a film former, collagen aids in reducing natural moisture loss, thereby helping hydrate the skin. Supplementation of collagen in food enhances there nutritive as well as functional property that ultimately results in improved health benefits. Synthesis of collagen decreases with aging that can be gained by consuming collagen supplemented food products. The metabolites of collagen attract fibroblasts and they help in the synthesis of new collagen that then assembles bone, skin and ligaments. Collagen supplements helps to fulfill the collagen requirement of the body. Hence, the food products supplemented with collagen may have tremendous potential and health benefits. Recently in the food industry they are extensively used in products as foaming agents, emulsifiers, stabilizers, microencapsulating agents and biodegradable film-forming materials.Product Sample
