Gelatin in the athlete's diet

It contains large amounts of glycine and proline and two amino acids not directly derived from the transcription in ribosomes hydroxyproline and hydroxylizine, the first in fairly large quantities. This protein is found in most tissues and organs, including bones, cartilage, skin, ligaments, tendons, cornea. Collagen is a protein with an unusual amino acid composition. It makes up 30% of the total mass of human protein and is responsible for the strength and toughness of the skin, its proper alignment and the continuous composition of its cells.

1. Sources of collagen

It is estimated that more than 30% of fish waste, such as shells, skin or bones, is a valuable source of collagen. Fish collagen has been used in cosmetology as a natural compound to improve the firmness and resilience of the skin. However, due to the presence of spongy decay and other infectious spongiform encephalopathies in cattle, new, safer sources of collage are being sought.

2. Sports injuries and nutritional support gelatin supplementation

Nutritional interventions and exercise that enhance collagen synthesis and strengthen these tissues may have a significant impact on injury rates among 8 healthy men. Each drink also contains 48 mg of vitamin C. One hour prior to exercise, the Journal of American Clinical Nutrition published an article in the journal G. A study was conducted to verify the effectiveness of supplementation with gelatin-enriched vitamin C in the context of collagen-synthesis. Eight healthy men were included, and each drink also contained 48 milligrams of Vitamin C. An hour before exercise, participants reported their blood levels. For three consecutive days, participants continued to exercise with a strain-on-train test after 6 hours of pregnancy. The results of the study suggested that the study may also require the use of a combination of antibodies to enhance bone tissue tissue growth, as well as a placebo-resistant treatment, and that, for example, a 15-minute follow-on test to increase the amount of protein in the blood.
