DIY 'collagen supplement' is viral for glowing skin, but experts have a warning
India TodayAs the year draws to a close, if there’s one word that has stirred up the entire beauty industry, it has to be "collagen". Sujit explains, "To create collagen, your body needs amino acids like proline, glycine, and hydroxyproline, which are primarily found in animal sources like meat, fish, and eggs. "Amla, beetroot, carrot, and apple support collagen health by providing antioxidants and Vitamin C, but they alone are not sufficient to create collagen," adds Sujit. Amp up your antioxidants : Foods like amla, beetroot, carrot, and apple are rich in antioxidants, which protect your existing collagen from damage caused by free radicals. These ingredients don’t directly increase collagen production, but they support it by providing essential antioxidants, Vitamin C, and other nutrients that keep existing collagen strong.
