They also showed increased ceramide, an important part of the skin&#8217;s protective barrier,\u00a0 and natural moisturizing factor, the skin element that maintains the water gradient in the stratum corneum.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusions<\/strong>: This study showed that intact of collagen powder increased the skin&#8217;s moisture content, improving its ability to protect the body against dehydration and prevent invaders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My thoughts<\/strong> &#8211; The number of test subjects was pretty small (only 25 ingested the collagen while 25 received a placebo) and the perceived improvement was marginal. I will seek out more studies like this to see if the same results bear out.
