24 Studies Later: 4 Anti-Aging Skin Supplements that Work

[@mj625]

Personal anecdote here. I took collagen peptides for more than a year and noticed nothing. I then read somewhere that glycine is the rate limiting factor in how much collagen your body produces. I incorporated glycine into my diet, and there has been a huge difference in my skin. Even age spots (I am 50) have either disappeared or started to fade.Therefore, I am surprised you didn't say anything about glycine. FYI, I take about 4 to 6 grams per day. Edit: I've increased the amount I take to 9-15 grams per day. Considering it is estimated that our ancestors consumed up to 20 grams per day or more, and I haven't had any negative side effects, I don't see a problem with this. It's all been great so far.

[@alexandremidouni8583]

Collagene is more effective but glycine = more bang for the buck. I take both

[@SeminarioMAE]

i thought collagen had glycine

[@mj625]

@SeminarioMAE I think you're right, but in my case it wasn't enough. I saw no benefit until I added additional glycine in supplement form.

[@jrmint2]

I use a lysine supplement (for cold sores) w my collagen peptides, I feel it works for my skin too...where do you get glycine? is it from food sources or pill form?

Collagen peptides - chow that powder down Hyaluronic acid w low molecular weight Sun exposure - vampire brigade represent! Astaxanthin - skin elasticiy & moisture =)

[@tracymullane8818]

Absolutely!! I'm a vampire too. Yes, there absolutely needs to be more focus on skin elasticity. Collagen without the elasticity will just give you thicker wrinkly skin like scleroderma, and that's actually the cause of it- lack of elastin. So astaxanthin is super important. On hyaluronic acid, the prevailing science shows high molecular weight hyaluronic acid is healthier due to the low molecular weight causing inflammation. And most supplements out there are the HMW. There are many studies and a brand new one citing ha as a cause of cancer and inflammation so that's not good. People are a bit freaked out about it right now especially those in the medical aesthetics community because of the injectable fillers industry. High blood serum levels of hyaluronic acid are a screening test for colon cancer. If there's no family history of cancer, I would go ahead and take HA supplements, but if there is a history I would be cautious. Elderberry supplements are another excellent source of body moisture for moisture retention.

[@FrozenAuroras]

You forgot GLUTATHIONE 🔥🔥🔥

[@tracymullane8818]

@@FrozenAuroras yup! NAC (N- acetyl cysteine) is a precursor to glutathione. So it's a good idea to look up the effective dose of it and take it as you get older. Taking it with glycine, collagen supplements, along with vitamin C, is a good idea for collagen production. Glutathione has a very short half-life in the body, so the best way to take it is actually through injection, but even then it doesn't last very long. So taking NAC is more efficient, and cheaper. Gly-nac supplementation extended the lives of mice 24%. Doctors prescribe NAC for the lungs- It thins secretions and enables easier breathing. The FDA was thinking about taking it off the market to study it as a drug but you can't take something that occurs in nature of the market. That would be like taking water off the market. Glycine aids in collagen production and is another powerful antioxidant. NAC also cleans out the liver. You're not supposed to use it in conjunction with drinking alcohol- that's how effective it is.

[@HarenHarem-zz5dx]

For real elasticiy, I'd recommend an elastin supplement (pills, powder, whatever you like). It's still much harder to get than collagen and hyaluronic acid but more companies are selling it now. You can look hydrolyzed marine elastin up.

[@EduardQualls]

The effects of hyaluronic acid can be amazing. I had two courses of hyaluronic acid injections directly into the synovial fluid of my knees, and the effects were almost immediate and wonderful. All the knee-pain that had been slowly building up over the years went away within a few weeks and hasn't returned. Health insurance is usually gung-ho for these, because these HA injections reduce the number of knee-replacement surgeries, simply because it causes regrowth, thickening and strengthening of the cartilage shielding the boney wear-surfaces within the joint. (The fact that the nurse-practitioner used ultrasound to make sure the needle didn't nick any structures was great, too. The only discomfort was from the extra pressure right after each injection, but that faded after a couple of hours.)

A typical village lifestyle in Greece All you youtubers confuse and stress us out with what you suggest for health and longevity. My aunt died in 2022 and she was 108 years old, my uncle at 98 years old, my father died at 97 years old and my mother at 93. We all come from Greece, specifically from the island of Samos next to Ikaria. The style of their life, a typical day was as follows. They would wake up in the morning at 6, maybe have a mountain tea or some milk with wholemeal bread and leave for manual work on the estates. Around 10 o'clock they ate some wholemeal bread with a few olives or their own cheese, at noon they rested for about half an hour and usually ate Legumes, pulses, and in the afternoon when the vesper bell rang at about 6 pm they usually left on foot for the village because the donkey was loaded with tools and products. In the evening, light food, Salads, wild greens, Legumes and generally Greek cuisine, all almost their own production. They always used olive oil in the food. in the evening the men would go to the Cafe for a drink, usually wine or ouzo and the women would gather in a house or in the courtyards of the houses and chat about the events of the village. At 10pm everyone went to bed. They didn't eat much meat. They ate fish Eggs and some old hen on some Sundays with potatoes and rarely with spaghetti. They used tomato paste for the sauces they made themselves in the sun and maybe would drink some wine that produce themselves. They had fun at the festivals 4 to 5 times a year and on the religious holidays. We children went with them to the estates and helped on weekends when we didn't have school. I should mention that all the residents in the villages of Samos have more or less the same habits and economic level. Many residents of my home village left and went to the United States of America. I am very sad to say that all 5 of my classmates who left for the USA and adopted the lifestyle there, all died very early very young in their 50's and 60's.

So how much wrinkles do these people have? Exactly They might have had long lives and were not struck by cancer.. doesn't mean they aged pretty. People in the longevity and healthspan part aren't just looking to replicate the results from your family which might also have a genetic component to it like very low occurrence of cardiovascular disease, they are looking to perpetuate the effect of rejuvenation. The absence of aging at all and the absence of decay. This is where you completely miss the mark. Yes we can learn a lot from them. But they didn't have the fix. They still experienced significant bodily decay until failure. They still had reduced quality of life over time and at some points failed in their ability to do things they used to be able to. So your mindset is still in the 2004 of the blue zone studies. We are now looking past those and are trying to find the mechanisms that might improve on those outcomes. Of course modern mankind seems to be moving further away from this as we speak but not everyone when u isolate populations who do get the message. So "youtubers" like Psychionic aren't confused at all. They just have different outcomes of goals projected than you have when using these definitions.

Psalm 22 "My God My God why have you forsaken me?.... bulls of bashan surround me they pierce my hands and feet.... they cast lots for my garments... "“He trusts in the Lord,” they say, “let the Lord rescue him.(R) Let him deliver him,(S) since he delights(T) in him.” "I am poured out like water" etc like with other passages in the psalms, genesis, (including theophany appearances in the torah) Isaiah, Zechariah, Daniel, Proverbs etc are considered messianic in rabbinic Judaism as the suffering servant messiah Ben Joseph, and to Christianity as Yeshua, Jesus bless you ❤ Edit: To expand on this is of course Isaiah 53 where you have the servant being crushed by God as an offering for sin for others, who dies and sees life and his seed afterwards, who dies with thieves and in a rich man's tomb, and who was despised and rejected, so why there is a common view of two messiahs, Ben yosef and Ben David, one messiah as the suffering servant and another as the conqueror who sets up the kingdom. Isaiah 52 the messiah draws Israel back to himself. Some fun and sad things are like people would say Jesus didn't exist despite Tacitus, Suetonius, Pliny the younger, Lucian etc and the apostles writings and the successors/church fathers of the apostles/bishops writings and josephus, because "Nazareth doesn't exist" until of course Nazareth was discovered, or another one, "there was no synagogue in capnernaum" until we found it, or Thomas Payne in age of reason "Bible is false because there were no kings during Jesus's time" until we found King Herod Agrippa's coins, or "Jesus wasn't buried in a tomb because crucifixion victims weren't buried in tombs" until we found crucifixion victims with the nails still in tombs in tombs. More cool things, are Jesus sweating blood in the garden of Gethsemane, this is a real phenomenon called Hematidrosis where death row inmates sweat blood, also another when Jesus is pierced and water and blood come out this actually happens when water builds around the lungs, it confused some early church fathers on the spiritual meaning, but it's a real phenomenon that occurs as well. Many rabbis into gematria etc say there is a curse upon reading Daniel 9 because it says Messiah The Prince must come and bring in eternal righteousness before the destruction of Solomon's temple, no wonder they say that as then if Messiah didn't come before 70 a.d. there is no messiah, those who have divided messiah into two were confused if the messiah would come riding on a donkey or horse, so the two messiahs, as opposed to the jews who believe in Jesus and himself, who state himself and two arrivals. Of course this is why Islam falls quickly because while they call Jesus messiah they don't understand what it means, and Muhammad of course denied the historical fact of Jesus dying by crucifixion (Which besides tacitus mentioning pontius pilate doing it to him, we even have an inscription that was uncovered oh pilate and dates lining up with his time being the procurator/prefect over Jerusalem) besides Muhammad being the total opposite of Jesus, Muhammad had sex with his child bride Aisha who was nine, he beheaded and crucified people, said not to trust jews and Christians, he had Ethiopian slaves and called them raisin heads, he called jews monkeys and rats, he slaughtered villages and the wives of families he killed said you can take them and have sex with them, he got caught having sex with his slave by Aisha and said he would not do it anymore then conveniently "Allah" comes and says it's fine and he can, he's a textbook false prophet, with of course takiyah being they will lie to you about what I said above, Islam is meant to subjugate the world I'd into belief by force, if you don't convert you must pay a tax, if you don't pay it you die. Allah has no love for unbelievers unlike Jesus who loves his enemies and we are meant to love all even to death, I'd write more but youtube doesn't like long messages, with eastern thought eternal universe doesn't fit the mold because and infinite amount of successive events becoming then impossible to have the present, we would never reach today because we would always have a yesterday or event before this moment, an immaterial, spaceless, timeless, mind (agency) bringing space-time into reality, is the best explanation for why anything exists including someone as amazing and as lovely as yourself 😊 So the disciples who say "For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty." And "13If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. 14And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is worthless, and so is your faith. 15In that case, we are also exposed as false witnesses about God. For we have testified about God that He raised Christ from the dead, but He did not raise Him if in fact the dead are not raised. 16For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised. 17And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. 18Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19If our hope in Christ is for this life alone, we are to be pitied more than all men. But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep." Since the witnesses knew whether or not they were lying and knew what it would mean to continue to say he did in fact rise and is the Messiah and God in the flesh then yes I believe them as The Messiah had to come during that time, a mind/agency creating the universe is the best cause for reality, Jesus is the most moral, truthful and charismatic and loving and honest person there is, and the most important and influential, (Buddha said he was still searching for truth, Jesus say, "I am the truth, the way and the life") Jesus gives us love and salvation as a gift without earned merit by us, not working our way to the truth or God or eternal destiny through every other religious and spiritual framework, he loves you and cares so much for you before he created you and wants a living relationship with you here and now not just after you die 😊 There's a million other things to cover that I want to say but this is probably a good stopping point but Jesis wants to remove the shadow in your life and Jesus wants you as you are right now he wants your heart and to live in you and you to know his love personally 😊 I had people prophesy over me very specific things nobody else knew about my past, things I was thinking or experienced even just the day before, Jesus healed me of sleep paralysis I had for years, depression and loneliness, I had a dream of a woman named Heather and a voice telling me their dad had died, a couple days later i meet them and they tell me about how they had just lost their dad that week, I feel God telling me to sit down and close my eyes and I see an outline of someone going to the bathroom very bizarre, then shortly after someone out of the blue asking me to pray for them as they are having trouble going to the bathroom, another was I ask Jesus alone "are you my buddy?" A couple hours later someone contacts me and they say "Yes Jesus is saying yes he is your buddy" another time was I obsessing a little over this blue suit and someone prophecies "I see you in this blue suit" etc, another time I was testing this whole thing and I'm about to be prophecied over and I have my Google notes out I had tried writing out a little story and it was about a fire and forest being burnt down and I ask God to confirm if he wants me to write this and sort of as a test because everything had been scary accurate and the person right after says "God wants you to be his little stick lit ablaze with his love, it may not seem like much but one small flame can burn down a whole forest" 😂 another one was I had this. Surreal vision looking at stars, shortly after someone messages me saying Jesus is looking at a telescope with you saying to you "everything I have is yours even the stars" another one I was in the bathroom asking God for a message for my friend Moses in Nigeria and as I'm leaving the bathroom i freeze in place and go into this bizarre trance like Peter in the book of acts and I see my friend Moses as a child playing with a toy firetruck and Jesus sitting next to him with love, I quickly tell them and they are in shock as they had just thrown away that toy that same day, another time I had gotten a word from God about someone close to me who hadn't accepted Jesus and that they had been praying to God secretly, I told them that and the look on their face was priceless as I had no idea they had been praying to God at all, they were shook 😄 this is only a handful of many a 100 times in just the last 12 months after 5 years of me being born again, there's so many more amazing things that have happened but you are beautiful and desired of God, he is a gentleman and will not force you to choose him or love him but he loves so so much, he's asking you if you will come, he will love you and cherish you everyday of your life, he will never abandon you, I beg you to take a chance and not reject God's love for you, he wants to heal you and you to enjoy a living relationship between you, God bless you so much, Jesus says to come to him for rest your weary soul he is humble and meek and tender and gentle, he loves you so much he knows everything about you, nothing about you is unimportant to him 😭❤❤ If you repent and call on his name you will be saved from hell and Jesus's wrath and judgement for all have sinned!! ❤ For God so loved The World that gave his only begotten son that whoever should believe in him will not perish but have eternal life!! 💙🙌🏻 repent all have sinned and fallen short!!❤️‍🔥❤♥️ ❤️❤️✝️❤️

mineral sunscreens work...but does not work better than chemical sunscreens which offer higher protection, they often use adjuncts that lower inflammation or sunscreen boosters to get the higher numbers.

It could be a combination of things, if I eat actually healthy diet, not the diet recommended by the govt., if I don’t smoke, don’t drink alcohol, don’t take drugs etc, if my immune system works fine and my body manages to get the benefits from the sun while counteracting the negatives then that could be the reason why. I can’t tell I have particularly good genetics, I have white skin and I live in Australia- a country with high melanoma rates and other skin cancers. People bath themselves in sunscreen day and night yet the rates keep goin up.. something doesn’t add up here. Then we find science that the sun actually doesn’t cause many types of skin cancers and it’s in fact the lack of the sun that cause some of the bad ones.

So yeah, perhaps, my comment is the only comment you came across that would give you an impression of n=1 anecdotal “evidence”, but the actual evidence is overwhelming.

Of course, that doesn't mean the benefits outweigh the costs, but its not all just about vitamin D. I'd love for you to do a video on this field of research!

[@JerzeyBird]

Re: Vitamin D supplementation vs. sun exposure, I work with overweight/obese, diabetic and heart disease patients, and even though they all supplement because their levels of D are low, supplementation does not increase their levels. It seems that this is due to its tendency to store into adipose tissue. I have also seen many labs of folks who are not obese or have any condition, but have tested low for D, and their Vit D levels are also not increased with (correct dose and form) supplementation. Once you've seen hundreds of labs over a career, it becomes clear that the theoretical replacement of Vit D through supplementation does not occur in a significant number of people.

[@Mellon_Musk]

So you recommend sun exposure? Doesn't that also get into the adipose tissues?

[@irhapsody2010]

I think that depends on what type of vitamin D it is. There's different types and my understanding is that you need D3 not D2 which is what is typically prescribed. There's also other vitamins that must be taken along with Vitamin D as it works better and it helps with absorption. Do a search on KZbin and you'll find videos that go more in depth, into the science.

Really have to disagree with the minimum of 15 SPF sunscreen. From all the media I consume, dermatologist have always said 30 SPF broad spectrum should be the bare minimum for UV protection, but 50 SPF broad spectrum and higher should be the standard. Just a fact if anyone didn't know, you will still tan using sunscreen. You just will be less likely to burn. Burn is bad. Burn is damaging, aging, and increase skin cancer risk.

H. acid applied on my skin certainly has a cosmetic effect. Honestly, the biggest effect I have seen thus far is from essential oils. But also my greatest experimental catastrophes, which is why I think it is not widely recommended. But if you are serious about it, you should start researching which phytochemicals have various effects on collagen production, autophagy, antioxidants, and especially which ones kill off pathogenic bacteria and fungus that have colonized most westerner's skin (nasty). Once you have a short list, find carrier oils that bring benefits and complement the oils. Then use the oils in small patches first to see if you have bad reactions (and you will to some of them). Keep daily notes and that will actually help you figure out which ones work for you.

@@ballinout92 ylang ylang has effects. The cosmetics and pharmacology fields pay for quite a lot of research into these oils. You can find the data on all of them in publicly available research papers. What I suspect, though, is that the efficacy of an oil is unique to each person, so that while an oil might on paper be very effective at something, it might not be the best for you. You have to use the research to make informed guesses about what could work for what you are trying to accomplish, keep detailed notes with objective metrics to track, and weed out the oils that aren't as effective. Also learn to use the ones that have side effects but are very effective (for me that is cinnamon). There's no universal answer to give other than a short list of the top candidates to experiment with. I would also point out that addressing colonization by bacteria and fungus goes a very long way. Most Americans have very poor hygiene and are walking around with ongoing colonization by staph and candida pretty much all the time. This slows down the repair and replacement of collagen I think since your body is dealing with the infection on the skin instead of synthesizing new skin. There are also dietary considerations. I don't eat meat. I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables. I supplement with all the precursors amino acids and vitamins to making collagen. I activate my ampk signalling pathway very often in training.

I wouldn’t necessarily trust studies that are funded by companies trying to sell these same supplements. Also, how many negative studies have they chosen to not publish at all? Just saying I wouldn’t be so quick to vouch for something that has very limited research. How many of these studies have been replicated? Any? Just something to think about.

What about the amount of these supplements you need to consume in order to see results? Like how much mg per kg of bodyweight? (Or is per kg of lean body mass a better way to measure?)

Because these supps also are called beneficial if you work out a lot and want to support muscle growth, the health of your ligaments, tendons and cartilage. Of course it does incorporate skin and connective tissue too. What about that? Do you know anything about it? I know hyaluronic acid and collagen can be injected into the cartiledge if it is damaged and CAN induce growth. But I also know that cartiledge is nourished during compression and release, not when being in a resting (or stiff) position, basically because it doesn't have its own blood supply. To sum up my question: Is that "information" that the intake of supplements containing collagen and hyaluronic acid beneficial for all of the things mentioned above, legit or is it nonsense? Plus: Noone ever told me how much should be taken in order to cause actual benefits to show up or happen. Here in Germany this all still seems to be rather experimental than based on knowledge, I think we're FAR behind in the health department tbh. That's exactly why I am asking.
