Drinking Collagen, Would you do it?/Mutants in China!

Drinking Collagen, Would you do it?




Some women in China drink collagen yo enhance their beauty. Collagen is the main protein of connective tissue in animals and the most abundant protein in mammals. Do you think women in America should drink collagen to enhance their beauty? How would it change American society and culture? Would you drink collagen? How far would you go for beauty?

Mutants in China!



Villagers were shocked after a monkey-like piglet was born in China. The pig belongs to Feng Changlin of Fengzhang village in rural China. Reports say the piglet looks just like a monkey with two thin lips, a small nose and two big eyes. It's rear legs are much longer than its forelegs, causing it to jump instead of walk. The piglet is one of five newborns, all of which look normal, which the family had raised for nine years. It is called hideous so no one will buy it. Neighbors suggest keeping it to see how it matures. What do you think? Is this the result of mating between species or a twisted experiment gone wrong in a chinese lab when a try at advances in controlling genetic manipulation were concocted.

  1. Well.. Collagen is found naturally throughout the body and it is a protein that provides the skin with elasticity. It also tightens the skin. That is why so many people desire it. Collagen is even found in out teeth. I guess if a person saw the need to take collagen supplements, from what I can tell, it is not harmful to the body. However, I would have to give it thought. I am still young and I would do my best to keep my body healthy as long as possible. I believe that aging can be a beautiful process, if it is done with grace. Also, if people lose their natural collagen, then they can take the collagen supplements to help avoid wrinkles. I think that collagen would definitely change the American culture in the sense that it would provide a false sense of beauty. People would depend on it and not do what we naturally need to do to take care of our skin. The same way people depend on make up and face lifts, collagen would be the new plastic surgery.

  2. i personally wouldnt drink collagen to enhance my beauty becuse i already like the way i look now.i think people in amercia should do whatever they want to enhance their beauty.i feel like whatever makes them happy they should do it. i don't think it would change american society becuz its just like drinking a protein shake.



    i think its very wrong to mate two animals together that arent the same kind of animal becuz i see it as tampering with something's life. thats not the way animals are suppose to look its suppose to be either a monkey or a pig not both and in a way i think those animals or creatures can be harmed through the process. animals have feelings and hurt just like humans.

  5. I think this is really crazy because science said that two different animals can not be put together and now china has found a way!

  6. I think the mutant mess is crazy. They say it was birthed but I think it was an experiment. If it was a monkey and a pig mating, then why and how are the other four siblings normal? I think they were experimenting on the poor thing. I'm not trying to be mean or anything but I say they should put the poor thing out of its misery. Kill it sooner than later rather than wait until it matures. When it gets older it'll have so many complications, so i say send it to heaven NOW!

  7. I don’t think that women in America should drink collagen to enhance there beauty. I think that anything used to enhance your beauty but risk your health at the same time is not worth it, even plastic surgery. I don’t think it would have a major influence on American society it would just be another tactic people used to make themselves people. I wouldn’t go far at all for beauty I don’t even wear make up. The most I do to enhance my beauty is get my hair done and buy new clothes lol. I think I am fine as I am.
    That picture is so dreadful. Sorry but that has to be from an experiment of genetic manipulation. What else could possibly cause a pig to come out looking identical to a monkey? I think it would be fairly interesting to see what it looks like when it matures and how it reacts. However I also agree that it will experience many health issues.

  8. Well....I don't know too much about collagen,but from the results it doesn't seem bad...and I haven't heard or seen any reports about collagen harming the body, so I say if there is nothing but positive results then there's no problem.

    As for mutation, I don't think that any living thing should be experimented with because if they were born like that, it was obviously made like that for a reason so...

  9. This is crazy. Mr. C (our counselor) does not believe this thing really exists. What is your source, I am intrigued to find out if this is for real!
