Whenever we hear the word collagen we know that it’s a building block for connective tissues.
Collagen is the most common protein in the body, it predominates in the fascia, we need it sufficiently.
But is it just a matter of taking collagen pills or other collagen supplements in to solve problems?
Dr. Berg explains the types of collagen (type 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5). One needs vitamin C for successful metabolism of collagen. If you have digestive problems (gastric bypass surgery, lack of stomachs, etc.), you may not be able to digest collagen from food to then make the amino acids to make your body collagen. If your problem is digestion, use Betaine Hydrochloride or Apple Cider Vinegar. For vitamin C deficiencies, start eating more vegetables, especially belly peppers, lemons, limes and any green vegetable. If someone is deficient in vitamin C, they can have subclinical vitamin C deficiencies like bleeding gums.
