Customer question:
Which type of collagen is best for hair? Anonymous customer's question
Pharmacist's answer:
Type I collagen from bovine or marine sources is the best for promoting hair growth, as it is rich in the amino acid proline, which is the main component of keratin. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and provides strength, structure, and flexibility to bones, tendons, ligaments, muscles, hair, and skin.
Collagen is the primary component of the dermis, as it makes up a large percentage of the layer of connective tissue that contains, among other things, hair follicles. Collagen plays a role in restoring the dermis and skin of the scalp. Collagen supplementation can improve the appearance and function of the scalp and hair follicles. Still, it makes sense to take it long-term, as the body produces an enzyme that constantly breaks down the collagen protein.
The human body can naturally produce collagen synthesized from amino acids. The body's collagen combines amino acids from protein-rich foods such as beef, chicken, fish, beans, eggs, and dairy products. Synthesis of collagen also requires the presence of vitamin C, zinc, and copper.
