Collagen – the ancient beauty tonic soup
Oct. 22, 2022
How life arose on earth is still a mystery. It is probable that the so-called primordial soup was its starting point. There was nobody who could have spooned it out yet, but the energy and power for the future life were contained in it. Let us skip some ages to be sitting at a Stone Age campfire: For here bubbles a second soup relevant to human development: meat and bone broth. By extending the pure vegetarian diet to meat (especially entrails, fat and bone marrow), man was able to develop the brain in the first place. The very brain, which then achieved all the other milestones over time: language, the spoon, the stove.
To this day, bone broth is good for our body's protein balance, because it is particularly high in collagen: Collagen is a protein that makes up 30% of the total mass of proteins in the body. Collagen is an essential component of our bones, cartilage, ligaments, skin and hair, it provides tension and strength. Actually, collagen is a natural component of food. But in the modern diet, we consume less of it than we used to, because we rarely or never eat cartilage, sinewy meats and cooked bones. Moreover, the body's collagen production processes slow down with age. That is why, for example, our skin loses its elasticity and we get wrinkles.
- Collagen strengthens tissue and bones
- Collagen strengthens cartilage and thus protects joints
- Collagen counteracts inflammation
- Collagen increases the elasticity of the skin and keeps it young
True Brodo's power broths are particularly high in collagen because we use as little water as possible when concocting the broth. We are convinced that almost nothing is better for the body than to be drinking TrueBrodo regularly. But only almost: regular meditation, yoga or other conscious relaxation periods are essential for the body and help to support the body's own collagen production.
