How to extract collagen from pigskin?

According to Chinese Materia Medica, pigskin contains protein, fat and dermatan B sulfate, which has the functions of softening blood vessels, anticoagulation, promoting hematopoiesis and skin injury healing, health care and beauty. Its colloid has better hematopoietic function than donkey-hide gelatin, can increase heme content and white blood cell count, form antithrombotic, and is rich in collagen. Eating more can wrinkle and beautify.

The production process of extracting collagen from pigskin is as follows:

1. First, clean the bought pigskin and remove the hair.

2. Then boil water in a casserole or pot and add water to the pot. Water is about three times that of pigskin. After the fire boils, turn to low heat and simmer for about 1 hour until the pigskin melts into jelly.

3. Then cool, or refrigerate after cooling.

4. Slice when eating and add your favorite Chili oil or something.

Characteristics of collagen:

1, the breast enhancement effect of collagen has long been known. Breast is mainly composed of connective tissue and adipose tissue. The tall and plump breast is largely supported by connective tissue, and collagen is the main component of connective tissue. "In connective tissue, collagen and polysaccharide are often interwoven into a network structure, which produces a certain mechanical strength and is the material basis for supporting the human body curve and reflecting the tall and straight posture."

2. Collagen can make skin soft, plump and elastic, lubricate cuticle, stimulate skin microcirculation, promote skin metabolism, make skin smooth and shiny, and reduce wrinkles.
