Elevated MMPs after sun exposure

Could be why my skin gets SAGGY and easily damaged after sun exposure. I don't really get burns or redness, just a loss of elasticity.

"UV radiation increases the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in human skin. MMPs are responsible for degrading the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins such as collagen, fibronectin, elastin, and proteoglycans, contributing to photoaging"

MMPs

I have major collagen problems. That and UV sensitivity are my only major remaining symptoms, but they are debilitating. It just feels like my body is semi-dissolving, and it's a full-time job to try to keep it stuck together.

things that suppress MMPs, like high-dose doxycycline and minocycline, help me.

Primavie shilajit

I took Primavie shilajit, 8 capsules a night, for several months, but then quit because I was worried about money, and also I was concerned the immune stimulation was giving me worse problems swallowing pills.
