With age, their natural production decreases, leading to wrinkles and sagging. Adequate protein intake helps support their synthesis and maintain the youthful appearance of the skin.  <\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p>Furthermore, it contributes to the renewal of skin cells and the healing of wounds, acne, or irritations. The amino acids it contains are essential for the repair of damaged tissue and the faster recovery of the skin following inflammation. <\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p>It also strengthens the immune system, reducing inflammation that is often associated with skin conditions such as acne or sensitivity. At the same time, it helps regulate blood sugar levels, which can limit the hormonal fluctuations that affect skin health. <\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p>Finally, foods rich in quality protein, such as fish, eggs, yoghurt, legumes, and nuts, also provide other nutrients that support the radiance and clarity of the skin. As such, protein is a fundamental ally for healthy and glowing skin from the inside out. <\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p><strong><em>Would a protein supplement with collagen be more beneficial for the skin?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p>The answer is yes. A protein supplement with collagen can be more beneficial for the skin, but with certain important conditions.<\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p>Collagen is the primary protein that gives the skin firmness, elasticity, and resilience. With age, natural collagen production decreases, leading to wrinkles, dryness, and loss of elasticity. The intake of hydrolysed collagen (collagen peptides) has been shown to potentially improve skin hydration, elasticity, and texture, especially when taken consistently over several weeks.  <\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<h5>\u03a3\u03b7\u03bc\u03b1\u03bd\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03a3\u03b7\u03bc\u03b5\u03af\u03c9\u03c3\u03b7<\/h5>&#13;\n<p><strong>The information provided is not medical advice but is for informational purposes only.
