Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body. If a human person weighs 75 kg's, 12,5 - 15 kg's of that is protein. Of this weight again 6 - 7,5 kg's are collagen. Collagen in an average person makes up from 8 to 10 % of body weight.

Fairly good amount of collagen is present in the dermis of the skin. May be 40 to 60 %. You have leather, which is very tough. This is mainly made up of the collagen fibres only.

Do you know if getting collagen injections can help with weight loss?

The body produces collagen naturally. The older we get, the less collagen we produce, which can result in fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen injections can be used to plumb up those areas where the body's natural collagen is now insufficient. Collagen protein is offered as a weight loss product under various brand names. It was originally offered for weight loss in the early 1980 with little results. It's more recently come back around for another go. There is little reason to believe that collagen protein is any more effective than any other product making such claims. Weight loss is about deficit calories, healthy eating and exercise.

Which is the difference between collagen fluid and collagen serum?

The only difference between the collagen fluid and collagen serum would be in the percentage of collagen used, other ingredients that might be included in a serum and the origin of the collagen itself. The most effective collagen comes from mammal sources, as it is the closest molecular structure to our own skin collagen. Phyto (plant) collagen and marine collagen would be from sources not related to human skin structure. Pure & Simple Skincare's pure Swiss Collagen Fluid is 96% pure collagen of a mammalian nature, and has only glycerin and sodium benzoate in trace amounts. Additionally, it has been micronized so the smaller molecular weight penetrates skin more effectively to help retain moisture naturally. For more information, go to www.pureandsimpleinc.com.
