The bones are made only of minerals. The bones are alive, part of the mineral, part of the living tissue. And collagen is the internal forests of this fabric. Without collagen, the bones become firm but fragile as chalk.
Collagen gives bones its flexibility and resistance to fractures. As the age or under the shot increases, the body produces less collagen, which can weaken the bones. Vitamin C plays a big role in the help of the body of collagen. Products such as Amla (Indian gooseberries), citrus fruits, and bone broth can nourish this internal strength.
The collagen supplement (especially marine or type I collagen) has also been shown in recent studies to improve bone density in postmenopausal women and the elderly.
