Collagen
At the heart of Dr. Ohhira’s drinking collagen is the Anti-Age Trio aging slowing complex. It consists of collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid.
Each ampoule contains as much as 7.75 g of collagen derived from marine fish: from the skin, scales and bones of free-living redfish (red snapper). It is present in the form of low molecular weight and collagen tripetides, which affects its excellent absorption.
Collagen is one of the body’s most important building proteins. It is found in large quantities in our skin, musculoskeletal system, teeth and gums, cornea of the eyes, blood vessels and other internal organs. It can be in the form of a gel (such as the filling of the eyeball) or twisted fibers, such as the support fibers of the skin.
The human body synthesizes it until about 25 years of age, then collagen gradually disappears. Collagen fibers are degraded – stretched and fragmented under the influence of enzymes that destroy them. These processes rapidly accelerate in women during menopause, which is reflected in the condition of the skin – its flabbiness and the formation of wrinkles. Around. 60 years of age there remains in the body only approx. 50-45% of the initial collagen level.
Elastin
Extracted from the skin, scales and bones of free-living cod in Pacific waters.
A connective tissue protein, large amounts of which are found in the lungs, arterial walls and joint ligaments. It is also a component that gives elasticity to skin and cartilage, such as the ears. In the human body it is produced until the age of 25 and completely disappears at 40-50.
Hyaluronic acid
In one ampoule of our collagen there are 4.6 mg of pure hyaluronic acid! It is a natural substance obtained by bacterial fermentation.
A component of the intercellular matrix naturally synthesized in the human body. One molecule of hyaluronic acid is capable of binding 250 molecules of water. Our ciao as much as 60% consists of water! It is hyaluronic acid that keeps it inside. This substance is found in almost all tissues of the body, in the highest concentration in nerve tissue, epithelium and connective tissue. In the skin, it is responsible for its hydration and firmness. Over time, the content of hyaluronic acid throughout the body decreases dramatically.
- Coenzyme Q10 – is found in every cell of our body, is involved in the process of energy production, so it is found in the highest amounts in the most energy-intensive organs – brain, heart, liver, kidneys. Energy is needed in skeletal muscles especially in physically active people, in whom already from ca. 35 years of age there are deficiencies of this substance. Coenzyme Q10 also has a strong rejuvenating effect – it neutralizes free radicals and is an antioxidant. It also has anti-cancer, anti-atherosclerotic effects, prevents hypertension and circulatory insufficiency.
- Vitamin C – takes part in the synthesis of collagen, helps maintain normal energy metabolism, efficient functioning of the immune system, is a powerful antioxidant. It has an excellent effect on the skin – strengthens blood vessels, evens and brightens the skin tone, prevents hyperpigmentation, regulates the exfoliation of the epidermis.
- Royal jelly – contains fast-absorbing nutrients: carbohydrates, fats and a lot of polyunsaturated fatty acids, composed of essential amino acids, hormones, trace elements, vitamins and other biologically active substances.
- Probiotic OM-X – contains extract from naturally fermented for 5 years plants growing in Japan, including: fruits: plums, goji berries, figs, blueberries and Japanese blueberries, yuzu fruit; mushrooms: shiitake, maitake, Brazilian mushrooms, and algae and seaweed. Throughout the year, these plants and mushrooms are harvested and layered in special containers. They are then mixed until a homogeneous mass is obtained. Their fermentation process is aided by lactic acid bacteria. The mass matures over the next four years, so that the strongest strains of bacteria are present in the resulting preparation.
