The wrinkle of human skin is caused by the obstacle of water storage function of skin cells, the decline of water binding ability of cells, the decline of plasticity, elasticity and dry mucosa. To delay or reduce the appearance of wrinkles, you must take in some collagen and elastin that can improve the binding force. Meat skin is a food rich in collagen, which has special effects on wrinkle reduction and beauty.
Meat skin (including pig's hoof and tail) contains 26.4% protein, 2.5 times that of pork, and more than 90% is macromolecular collagen and elastin, which is comparable to bear's paw. Collagen has a special nutritional effect on the skin. It can enhance the vitality and improve the function of skin cells with low water storage function, promote skin cells to absorb and store water, prevent skin dryness and wrinkling, and make it rich, full, flat and smooth; Elastin can increase the elasticity and toughness of the skin, enhance the blood circulation, provide sufficient nutrition, stretch, shallow or disappear wrinkles, and make the skin delicate, delicate and smooth.
