Collagen, improvement in Yin Tissue & Yin Yoga

[RichardSmithe]

<p>I need your help to "find" my curiosity in a few things :<br>1. In some TT Yin yoga teachers explain how the technique of holding the yin pose (3-20 minutes) can really help to moisturize Yin tissues.<br>Can you explain this in more detail? Maybe in a chemical process?<br>--&gt;Because, according to some theory, prolonged stress applied to Yin tissues can damage this tissue itself.<br>2. Does the explanation from No. 1 (above) also have to do with improving the quality of collagen in the body? Is there any explanation for this chemical process? Especially for Yin yoga.<br>3. If some theory says that too much and too long stress applied to Yin tissues is harmful - how can you explain that Yin yoga technique can act in the opposite way: improve Yin tissues and improve the joint that has contracture. is there any research for this?<br>4. I have heard some research that Yin Yoga also improves the immune system. They said that static stretching has anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic effects. Can you help explain this in detail?<br>Thank you very much<br></p>

With a lack of collagen, bones and joints become brittle, nails and hair become brittle and fall out.

Without collagen, bones and joints become brittle, nails and hair become brittle, and fall out. After the Covid, I began to notice that my nails were very brittle, although I never complained about it, and my hair fell down. And even though I've been using a supplement from thorne.com ( https://www.thorne.com/products/dp/collagen-plus ) for merely 10 days, I noticed how my nails became stronger, and the hair did not fall out so much. The composition contains vitamin C, which accelerates the absorption of collagen and gives it a better taste. It's pretty easy to use. You just need to pour it on the tongue and wait until it dissolves.
