What Happens To Your Body’s Collagen As You Age?
Research suggests that your collagen levels start to decline gradually every year after your 20s.
When you are young, your collagen levels are high. This helps to keep your skin smooth, hair full and nails strong. But as you get older, these levels drop.
You might start to notice your skin doesn’t have that fresh look anymore, your hair starts to feel thinner, and your nails become more brittle.
Plus, what’s worse, UV exposure, pollution, bad habits, and poor diet choices also contribute to a decline in collagen levels.
