Myth 2. Men do not need to take collagen.

In collagen advertising, women are often addressed specifically: they say that the skin will be soft and velvety, the hair will be shiny, and the nails will be strong. Because of this, men do not think that they, too, may need collagen. In fact, the male body needs collagen in the same way as the female body. It not only maintains the beauty and health of the skin, teeth and nails, but also helps build muscle mass. Scientists have found that if you take collagen before or after strength training in the gym, the muscles will grow faster.

Myth 1. Only the elderly need collagen.

It is believed that the lack of collagen is something age-related, so you can not think about supplements until the age of 60. Research really confirms that aging skin produces much less collagen than young skin. That is why in young people scratches, deep cuts and fractures heal faster than in older people. But collagen production does not slow down in old age, but much earlier. The body begins to lose collagen around the age of 30, and after 5-10 years, the effect will be very noticeable. First of all, this is reflected in the skin - it becomes dry, wrinkles appear. Then hair fades, and a person can also gain weight, even if eating habits have not changed, or earn problems with their teeth. Therefore, it is worth starting to look narrowly at collagen supplements between 20 and 30 years.

5 myths about collagen. Why shouldn't you believe in them?

In the article, we debunk the myths about collagen and tell you from which sources it will be absorbed faster.

10 phrases that men say when cheating.

If you haven't "caught" him yet: • She's just a friend. • Respect my privacy (read: Stay out of my phone/laptop). • You are cheating on me? (A typical case is that those who deceive themselves suspect their partners of similar deception). • You're wrong/not good enough... (and then total criticism of all your actions). • Oh, I can do my own laundry. • I need to stay late, I have a lot of work to do. If a man is convicted of treason: • I still love you and want to be with you. • I didn't mean to hurt you. • I didn't want/afraid to lose you. • She means nothing to me. No matter what a man says, his eyes betray him! I suppose you yourself will feel where the manipulation is, and where is just your fears.

Should I give a man a loan?

Reasons why you can not give a man a loan? 1. A woman as an "airbag". Once having borrowed money, you give him a “red light” for the subsequent resolution of his financial issues. I guarantee: he will come to you for the next tranche instead of looking for a part-time job. 2. Feeling of permissiveness. Men whose loans are paid by their wives have no sense of proportion at all. They accumulate a lot of debts, and when the “hour of reckoning” approaches, they innocently declare: “Well, we are a family, is it difficult for you to pay or what?” 3. It degrades. One of the main life tasks of any man is the financial support of the family. And when all financial matters are decided by a woman, it is not surprising that after a while he lies with a beer on the couch and grows a belly.

Do you know how to listen?

Surprisingly, people lack the seemingly simple skill – the art of LISTENING. This is especially true of chronic interrupters who always prevent others from telling a story. Listening is the most important communication skill. Most people you listen to with interest will find you an attractive person. In order to learn how to listen, you should really want it. Of course, it's okay that you listen to the people who matter to you and get the information you need. But try to go a little deeper. Learn to listen and hear what the person puts into his/her words, their interests and views on life.

Do you know how to keep silent?

Most people feel ANXIETY when silence occurs. Because of this, one begins to strain his brain to find at least one word to say. Sometimes the result can be absurd. Sometimes it's a way out of a silent mutual state. In fact, there's actually no shame in being silent. It's much better than talking nonsense. You have to be calm during a conversation. Usually when a person has a "cool" mind, some insights occur. Thus, if you behave calmly and think less about what to say, the right thoughts and words surely come to you.

Standing behind the cash register during a robbery reduced the risk of injury for salespeople.

Psychologists from Canada and the United States studied videos of attacks on 760 US stores to understand how the behavior of the seller depends on the risk of injury during a robbery.
