A CUBE OF JELLY FOR NEW SKIN?
Something which is very current is the use of collagen to restore the youth in our skin – experts say that collagen must be ingested rather than applied as the molecule is too big to pass through the skin layer and in fact Boots have recently begun to stock several collagen tablets and liquid shots – but at a very costly fee!
This brings us back to an old stalwart of advice passed down from the generations above that eating a cube of jelly every day will reinforce your skin! Ever heard of this?
Well in actual fact there is truth and science behind this advice from granny as jelly is made from gelatine – an animal based product that is basically collagen!
According to Liz Earle on ITV today – another way to get collagen is by slow boiling bones at home for 9 hours and making a broth which can be drunk alone or added to meals as a sauce. Cell renewal in every bite!
So…. If you don’t wish to splash the cash or while away the hours boiling bones – ladies, a little bit of jelly cube may go a along way!
