Anti-Wrinkle Creams Containing Collagen and Elastin: The Disappointing Truth Behind the Promise by:Therese Higgins

It's unbelievable

It's unbelievable. Anti-wrinkle creams containing collagen and elastin continue to fly off the shelves despite the fact that they are, essentially, useless products. If you've had your money taken by cosmetic companies who aren't telling you the truth about how collagen really works, don't feel bad. There is no crime in trying to support the health of your skin. You just haven't been given the facts about how to stimulate collagen, naturally, for a powerful, anti-aging effect. And that is what I'm going to give you in this article.

It stands to reason that if you're reading this, you already know that collagen and elastin have been identified as two essential proteins for keep the skin soft and supple. Additionally, these two structural substances contribute to an even texture and tone in our skin, as well as a healthy elasticity. Interestingly, these proteins play a critical role in bone strength and joint mobility.

If you're seeing lines, wrinkles, sags and blotches it's a clear indication that your body's natural collagen and elastin production is breaking down. But the ONLY way to effectively turn this deterioration around is to stimulate collage production from within your own cells. Unfortunately, anti-wrinkle creams containing collagen and elastin have a serious flaw that stops them from helping with this stimulation. Let me explain.

You see, the scientists that make these creams have not been able to replicate the necessary structural complexity of human collagen and elastin. Their synthetic version of these proteins is made up of molecules that are just too big to be absorbed and used by the body. Oh, they may give you a topical, tightening result, but it can't last. It's strictly a temporary, cosmetic effect. This is the disappointing truth they don't want you to know about.

Now that you've got the truth about anti-wrinkle cream containing collagen and elastin, let's turn our attention to helping your body produce more of its own powerful, natural collagen and elastin proteins. One important thing to keep in mind is that your production of these structural proteins has broken down and needs a boost. It's just like when you run out of energy and need a boost. You feed your body with energizing nutrition.

Your skin cells are no different. Providing them with stimulating nutrients is all they need to get back to work producing lots of natural collagen and elastin. "But what kind of nutrients," you ask? Special, nature-based substances that have been harvested and tested, specifically, for their powerful ability to stimulate collagen.

One such natural substance is called Phytessence Wakame, a special form of Japanese sea kelp. To learn how Phytesence Wakame and other similar nature-based substances work to stimulate natural collagen and elastin production, spend a little time researching them. I'm sure you will be just as amazed at I am, at how they can help reclaim your healthy, youthful appearance.
