After 50 years and to compensate for the loss of collagen in the body, eating fatty fish would be a perfect remedy. Here are the best fatty fish to include in your diet… and it’s one of Victoria Beckham’s beauty secrets!
On April 17, Victoria Beckham will celebrate her 50th birthday. But for the former Spice Girl turned designer at the head of her own brand, becoming fifty-year-old is not going to be synonymous with old age or visible wrinkles! The mother of four children follows a well-established beauty routine with a multitude of treatments including retinol, an ingredient known for its anti-aging properties.
But since outer beauty begins on the inside, Victoria Beckham follows too a diet rich in fatty fish… which is known to stimulate the production of collagen and therefore delay the appearance of the first signs of aging such as wrinkles and fine lines. It’s in the columns of the magazine US Vogue that her famous husband David Beckham has revealed that his wife eats fatty fish every day. The former footballer revealed that it was expert dermatologist, Dr Harold Lancer, who advised the pretty brunette to eat fish and more specifically salmon to treat her “problem” skin.

Consuming salmon: the new anti-aging beauty gesture to delay the appearance of wrinkles
Did you know ? Collagen is a protein naturally present abundantly in the body. This fibrous protein found in the connective tissues of many organisms is produced by cells called fibroblasts and is essential for maintaining the structural integrity of various tissues in the body. It therefore contributes to the good health of the skin, vessels, ligaments, tendons, muscles and cartilage. However, collagen decreases at a rate of 1% each year, from the age of 25. This reduction then causes a loss of elasticity and firmness of the skin and therefore promotes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

The best remedy for this natural loss of collagen will therefore be to “reinject” it into the body by consuming foods that contain it! This is the case with salmon, Victoria Beckham’s favorite food. It is in fact scientifically proven that salmon is a source of collagen and that it thus has beneficial properties for the health of the skin and joints. This oily fish, which turns out to be delicious, is rich in amino acids such as glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, which are important constituents of collagen. Fifty-year-olds like Victoria Beckham have therefore found their new favorite food to eat in all sauces.

Focus on the other benefits of salmon
Generally speaking, salmon is a food rich in omega 3, essential fatty acids that the body cannot synthesize naturally and must therefore be obtained through food. The intake of these omega-3s contained in salmon will have a good impact on a multitude of points in the body, namely heart health, brain function, eye health and reduction of inflammation. There is also evidence that these omega-3s are known to reduce the risk of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Among the other benefits of salmon we note its richness in proteins which are essential for the construction and repair of muscle tissues, bone health and the regulation of hormones, its richness in nutrients in particular vitamin D, vitamin B12, vitamin B6, niacin, phosphorus and selenium, which are essential for overall health and which help fight against hair loss. Salmon also contains antioxidants such as astaxanthin, which can help reduce free radical damage and therefore protect cells against premature aging. Finally, vitamin D present in salmon is important for bone healthbecause it helps in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, essential for the formation and maintenance of strong bones.
