Collagen is a protein that acts as the building block of skin. As people age, collagen levels decrease, but the levels can also be negatively affected by stress. Studies have confirmed that stress impacts the skin’s collagen by releasing cortisol, which breaks collagen down.
According to board-certified dermatologist Jennifer MacGregor, MD, of NYC’s Union Square Dermatology, sex actually reduces cortisol (the stress hormone). This makes way for collagen production and maintenance to promote fresh, rejuvenated skin and sidestep fine lines and wrinkles.
Rgaefuel knowing that we will not have good skin and as we grow older without sex our skin conditions will become worse. Not only do we have stress, we lack access to physical intimacy which would reduce stress. Our collagen production will be lower which will make us look wy older than we actually are. While chads and foids will look younger in the meantime.
