I have zero wrinkles & it’s all down to drinking up boiled chicken feet – it’s way better than any collagen products
A BEAUTY lover with so-called ‘glass skin’ has revealed how she keeps wrinkles at bay thanks to chicken feet.
They say that you are what you eat – and one woman who certainly lives by this is Yuri Lee who swears by a special broth containing boiled chicken feet.
According to the beauty fanatic, whilst there are dozens of skincare products in the market, this gut-churning dish was her ”biggest secret for youthful glass skin”.
Yuri, from the sunny California, the USA, claimed that boiling chicken feet was ”amazing” for the health of your skin and it’s not just any other bone broth.
But as terrifying and stomach-churning as it may initially appear, using chicken feet in cooking has been around for ages and it’s popular in many cuisines around the world, particularly in Asia.
These teeny bits of chicken are said to be ”a nutrition powerhouse”, full off of calcium, protein, collagen, and minerals.
As well as keeping your skin radiant and wrinkle-free, collagen is also great for your hair, teeth and even bones – and a must-have for those struggling with joint paint.
According to experts, chicken feet broth is also a fantastic source of gelatin, which works wonders for healing poor gut – and in turn, your skin.
The savoury drink, which is best made with organic ingredients and veggies, also improves the quality of your sleep and fights inflammation.
What’s more, the broth is not only cheap to make but can also be whipped up with scraps left in your fridge – win-win.
Fellow cooking lovers swear by adding in just about anything – from butternut squash and onions, to cabbage and carrots, as well as celery and garlic for added benefits.
But whilst the skinfluencer may rave about this anti-ageing beverage, it seems that not everyone on social media would be racing to give it a go.

”I’m good. you look stunning tho,” wrote one person, after seeing the video of Yuri enjoying the chicken feet broth.
Another must’ve felt nauseous too, writing: ”You know what, it’s nice to get old.”
”never, even if i get cindrella skin,” a third chimed in.
”I cook it for 2 – 3 hours, it provides a lot of collagen, it is also good for hair, knees pains, among others,” someone else was a fan of this wrinkle-banishing skincare hack.
However, if drinking a meat-based broth with chicken feet is not the one for you, or you’re simply following a vegetarian or plant-based diet, there are also other alternatives.
According to health gurus at BetterMe, the nature is full of foods that provide an extra collagen boost, such as eggs, mushrooms, asparagus and Swiss cheese.
Other groceries to snap up next time you hit the shops include broccoli, papaya, kiwi fruit and red pepper.
It’s also vital to eat a diet rich in copper, as it plays a role a collagen production and utalisation. Fruit and veggies to look out for are apricots, legumes, as well as spinach and cashews.
