Collagen: Not a constituent of a plant or other natural remedy this substance is so essential to the body that it warrants description.

Collagen is a fibrous protein that forms the fibers of skin, tendons ligaments and bones. This fibrous "mat" or collage is responsible for the strength of teeth and bones, strength of cell walls and the underlying structural make-up of the skin. Collagen makes up almost a third of all protein in the body.

With age (assisted by sun-damage) the collagen fibers in the skin become rigid and the body gradually loses its ability to repair or rejuvenate these collagen fibers (as a result of a weakening, hardening or even breakdown of the very fine capillaries that feed the skin).
