00:00:00the value of the economy in the Zenica-Doboj Canton, yes, you said that there will be companies from
00:00:04Bosnia and Herzegovina at the fair, so how does the Ministry
00:00:07of Economy subsidize
00:00:09the participation of these domestic companies at Zeps? Well, we
00:00:13have been involved from the very beginning, since Zeps returned,
00:00:16from all activities, Zeps is something that has been going on for
00:00:20a long time, preparations are underway throughout the entire year, we as
00:00:23the Ministry of Economy provide all companies from the Zenica-Doboj Canton
00:00:26through a public call with the opportunity to... participate in
00:00:30fairs, that is, we give them incentives
00:00:33to participate in fairs, our goal is to have as many
00:00:37companies from the Zenica-Doboj Canton
00:00:40mm present what we do best in the Zenica-Doboj
00:00:44Canton, we produce new products and I think that with
00:00:47new products, uh, we will present the Zenica-Doboj
00:00:51Canton at Zeps 2026, as I said
00:00:55at the Tešanj fair. Now, one of the panels at the fair is titled "The Future
00:00:58of the Economy of Bosnia and Herzegovina: Challenges and Opportunities," so how would you
00:01:02assess the general situation in this sector, given the
00:01:05latest developments in the new Ironworks,
00:01:09from the Zenica-Doboj Canton, in Zenica, the fact that it is a huge blow to the economy of Zenica,
00:01:13but also to the entire Federation, and even Bosnia and Herzegovina. Uh, I
00:01:16can freely say that the Ironworks and the Zenica Mine
00:01:20are an integral part of the life of Zenica. We
00:01:24vocational high schools, considering were particularly affected by the way discussions are held in Bosnia and
00:01:28Herzegovina, no one...
00:01:30took action when it was necessary to take action,
00:01:33actions should have been taken much, much
00:01:37of the ministry less than three years ago and I know
00:01:40well what I started doing from the first day, I started
00:01:44looking for new companies, giving
00:01:47incentives to new companies, to develop new companies, everyone in Bosnia
00:01:51and Herzegovina knew that old technology could not survive, that with
00:01:55old technology it was not possible to be competitive and
00:01:58what happened to us was... "the worst thing was, we had
00:02:01an unfortunate incident with the railways, I
00:02:05called as the Minister of Economy of the Zenica-Doboj Canton
00:02:08for the railway to be restored, you remember well that no one was
00:02:12taking any steps, I think that on the 94th
00:02:16day, literally a company from Turkey restored
00:02:18the railway, which is a
00:02:21shame for our homeland, Bosnia and
00:02:24Herzegovina, uh, we had those funds, we
00:02:27offered ourselves and the businessmen".
00:02:30The Doboj Canton was the most affected by the railway standstill,
00:02:34then chain reaction leads to
00:02:37the closure of the coking plant, the closure of the mine, the Zenica
00:02:40mine, I don't know how uh a state
00:02:44that is governed, well, the government of the Federation failed to, how do you view all these
00:02:48moves, the announcement of moves to save the new Ironworks, whether Energonvest will enter
00:02:52and nothing came of that, nothing happened, well, generally that situation
00:02:56when private mm
00:02:59individuals took over. last November, so the new Ironworks, actually
00:03:02since then they started announcing bankruptcy, well I will say
00:03:06that has been done I see as a large
00:03:09dose of populism, all our measures that I mention in
00:03:12the Zenica-Doboj Canton, the results that we have in the Zenica-Doboj Canton
00:03:16are measurable results, the success of the economy of the Zenica-Doboj
00:03:20Canton is measurable or the failure of some people is also
00:03:24measurable, I think that the right of first refusal
00:03:27should have been used if it was already there. to enter or to let
00:03:31the investor who came, risked entering the new
00:03:35Ironworks, we should have all helped to stabilize the situation
00:03:38as soon as possible, here the saddest thing is that
00:03:42many people are playing with the emotions of the citizens of Zenica,
00:03:45mm, I think that we should tell all our
00:03:49employees that they are not alone, that we will take care, that
00:03:53we will fight, and the best care for our workers is
00:03:56to create new jobs, since I came to the head of the ministry. for
00:04:00the economy, I have been fighting to open as many jobs as possible
00:04:03in Zenica, in the Zenica-Doboj Canton, and if
00:04:07you look at the results in the first six
00:04:08Turkey, we have been to Slovenia in months, we are the only canton in Bosnia and Herzegovina that has
00:04:12a positive income, uh in that, because now the question arises what will happen to
00:04:16those workers of the new Ironworks and the situation is no better
00:04:19in the mines, recently the miners of the Zenica Brown
00:04:23Coal Mine protested, they closed themselves in the pit because their
00:04:27July salary was not paid, so now that agreement has been reached, that salary payment.
00:04:30But that is not actually a permanent solution, the question arises
00:04:34whether all these people will be taken care of when the time comes to
00:04:37close all mines? Of course, a permanent solution must be found before
00:04:41the mine closes, solutions should have been found before
00:04:44this happened with the Ironworks. I
00:04:48said, it's sad that a large
00:04:51number of people who should be taking care at many levels of government
00:04:55in Bosnia and Herzegovina, are only dealing with consequences, no one
00:04:58is dealing with solutions. "I found Zeps closed,
00:05:02I could have said that some people before me closed Zeps, no, we
00:05:06said we would bring Zeps back, we brought Zeps back, now at Zeps we will
00:05:09present what our businessmen are doing, the economy is alive." "We are constantly
00:05:13talking to new potential investors, offering them
00:05:16solutions, I constantly invite all those who hold any
00:05:20position at any level of government in Bosnia and Herzegovina, to stop
00:05:23representing us badly around the world, we need an image
00:05:27change, and that's why we brought Zeps back, Zeps is an opportunity and a chance for
00:05:31us to present Bosnia in a completely different way
00:05:35through these economic activities,
00:05:37you yourself say somewhere how the Zenica-Doboj Canton is actually
00:05:41uh potent when it comes to the economy, you have 26
00:05:44industrial zones, you mention,
00:05:46both foreign and domestic, are
00:05:50investors, actually how ready are all those zones for domestic, but
00:05:54also for foreign investments, as
00:05:57you said, we have 26 zones and we are trying
00:06:00to, well, on Friday we have a signing with the cities,
00:06:04new incentives for the construction of infrastructure in
00:06:08industrial zones in the Zenica-Doboj Canton,
00:06:11our goal is for investors. when they come to the Zenica-Doboj Canton, both
00:06:15domestic and foreign investors of course in those
00:06:18industrial zones to have the best possible conditions, better conditions for
00:06:22doing business to be as competitive as possible with others
00:06:25in the region. I think the Zenica-Doboj Canton is doing a very good job of that, because
00:06:29you asked, really the occupancy of industrial
00:06:32zones is very, very high, we already have a need for more,
00:06:36well, Tešanj has adopted in the new plan, the development plan, the development
00:06:40of the municipality, the construction of new. industrial zones, we also have them in
00:06:44Zavidovići and in other cities, we are trying
00:06:47to literally force our cities and
00:06:50municipalities to open new industrial zones and to have as many
00:06:54companies as possible located in industrial zones, when we talk
00:06:57about Zenica, Zenica is very interesting, Zenica by its position
00:07:01is located in a very strategic place, my vision of Zenica is for Zenica
00:07:05to become a center of
00:07:08healthy industry in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Zenica can do that, Zenica certainly
00:07:11can... Can it, considering that your mandate is
00:07:15ending, four years have
00:07:18passed, is there enough capacity
00:07:22for Zenica to actually become what you, well, what I
00:07:26did are projects that will last, the incentives that we
00:07:29gave to the economy are incentives that they will use, the machines that
00:07:33were procured, they are working, they will work, whether I am a minister or not, my
00:07:37goal when I came to the head of the ministry was for as many
00:07:40companies as possible to receive incentives for strengthening competitiveness, for
00:07:44procuring equipment, introducing new technologies, and I think that was
00:07:48the locomotive of development of the Zenica-Doboj Canton,
00:07:51bringing new investments as well, all
00:07:55these are things that we will certainly consume
00:07:59for a long, longer period. Now, despite
00:08:02that great industrial potential, critics are
00:08:05there to criticize, and they actually say that
00:08:08the Zenica-Doboj Canton still does not attract enough large greenfield foreign
00:08:12investments,
00:08:15but rather that it mainly relies on the existing base of domestic entities.
00:08:18Now, are these existing administrative and parafiscal
00:08:22levies still that too great an obstacle
00:08:25for investors? Well, considering
00:08:29what we went through as the Zenica-Doboj Canton and what
00:08:32I found, I can say that we are successful,
00:08:36uh, I told you, I didn't wait for investors
00:08:39to come to us, I visited and all these measures.
00:08:43that I implemented were followed by a large number
00:08:46of visits from the Republic of Turkey, Austria,
00:08:49Italy, Slovenia, other countries,
00:08:52Libya. We went, talked to
00:08:56new investors, we are happy, well, the Zenica-Doboj Canton, I would
00:09:00like you to have mentioned that, uh,
00:09:02the Zenica-Doboj Canton last year had a record amount
00:09:06of direct investments, over a billion, domestic investments
00:09:09over a billion, no one in Bosnia and Herzegovina had that. The Doboj
00:09:13Canton has its domestic investors,
00:09:15I would also like to mention and uh
00:09:19the new, new mine in Vareš, which
00:09:22in a short time came to be number
00:09:26one exporter from Bosnia and Herzegovina, employing, according to
00:09:30yesterday's statistical data,
00:09:32640 new people, most
00:09:36of whom are young people who were planning to leave Bosnia and
00:09:39Herzegovina, and what makes us happy is that 90% of those employed
00:09:42are from the Zenica-Doboj Canton, yes, is there a strategy at the ministry level, actually
00:09:45do you talk to the diaspora, so to speak, people who live abroad,
00:09:48investors who are originally from
00:09:52the Zenica-Doboj Canton in some way to
00:09:54invest here? I see the greatest potential in them,
00:09:57they are very um
00:10:00capable, ready people, one
00:10:03of those people is at the head of the delegation that
00:10:06is coming with 17 businessmen
00:10:10from Austria,
00:10:12I'm glad that in those visits we always focused on talking to our people in
00:10:16the diaspora, I think that Bosnia and Herzegovina has enormous
00:10:20potential, besides the diaspora uh...
00:10:23closing what is called the fiscal part of Bosnia and Herzegovina
00:10:27and sending money to our homeland, I always invite them to invest
00:10:31in their homeland in Bosnia and Herzegovina, to join us and a large number
00:10:35of them are coming and returning, well, we have
00:10:39examples of our companies
00:10:42that have already connected and are working with them, producing their own
00:10:45products for their chains that they have launched
00:10:48across Europe, so we are happy that every day
00:10:52with our people in
00:10:56the diaspora, we have better and better
00:10:59cooperation, unfortunately, we only remember the diaspora mostly during
00:11:03election cycles, during election periods, I
00:11:06have been trying from the very beginning
00:11:09to talk to them, one of our people in the diaspora is
00:11:13Šekib Abdagić, he is the head of the largest chamber of commerce in
00:11:16the world, the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce, he was born in Zenica,
00:11:20lived in Zenica until he was six, I knew that, I went, we
00:11:23went to Šefik." Abdagić, we talked,
00:11:27explained to him how important it is for us to have a partner country at the first
00:11:30Zeps, that the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce as the largest in Europe
00:11:34be our partner, and that's how we, I can say, made a great
00:11:38return to the international stage, yes, so there is that cooperation. Earlier, when you
00:11:42mentioned young people, uh,
00:11:45does the ministry cooperate with
00:11:49that investors are looking for skilled staff, skilled
00:11:53labor, we know... that we lack that more and more,
00:11:56that actually the search for labor
00:12:00dual education was first introduced in the Zenica-Doboj Canton, here I want
00:12:03to especially thank the Chamber of Commerce of the Zenica-Doboj
00:12:07Canton, which
00:12:10together with us, with a large number of businessmen entered into
00:12:14this program, we worked with international organizations
00:12:18and we are happy that those children who undergo
00:12:21training mostly stay in those companies, the companies know
00:12:25them. We as the ministry gave additional points to all companies that
00:12:29employed high school students in
00:12:32that summer practice and during
00:12:35the training practice, we gave them additional
00:12:38points when applying to us for public
00:12:42calls, so I use this opportunity to thank
00:12:45them all, because talking
00:12:48about young people is not just talking about them, we
00:12:52must create a platform to make it
00:12:55as easy as possible for them to integrate into
00:12:58our society, yes, it is important that their will for that exists. Now
00:13:01you state that the export of the Zenica-Doboj Canton records
00:13:04quite good results, the import-export coverage
00:13:08is in surplus. Now, which key
00:13:11industrial sectors actually carry
00:13:14this, so to speak, economic locomotive of the Zenica-Doboj
00:13:18Canton? Well, we can certainly say that it is about the metal
00:13:21industry, a large number of manufacturers work in
00:13:25that sector, production of machinery, equipment for machines, we also
00:13:29have a large number of companies that are engaged in food production,
00:13:33export uh there is growing, we achieved the highest growth
00:13:36in export, export of mm
00:13:39our products, semi-finished products and
00:13:43finished products, I am happy that exports from the Zenica-Doboj
00:13:46Canton are also growing this year, and we are especially, especially
00:13:50proud that in the trade exchange of the Zenica-Doboj Canton
00:13:53we have coverage of imports and exports greater
00:13:57than uh others in Bosnia and Herzegovina, we will continue
00:14:01to give incentives to export-oriented
00:14:03companies, because every exported
00:14:07mark creates an additional value to the economy of our homeland
00:14:11Bosnia and Herzegovina, we with them not only, well, now we mentioned
00:14:15Zeps as a platform and
00:14:18the Tešanj fair as platforms where our businessmen
00:14:21meet new new partners, we with... them
00:14:25we have been to several fairs, we have been
00:14:28to fairs in Italy, we have been to
00:14:33Celje, we have been to Austria, and I would like
00:14:37to point out that we organized the first Bosnian-Herzegovinian business
00:14:41forum in the Libyan city of Misrata,
00:14:44we are happy, well, wherever we were, we were first, yes, you just mentioned
00:14:48m, incentives, well, in your
00:14:51mandate, a considerable amount was allocated for... incentives,
00:14:55it seems around 10 million, well, what
00:14:58measurable results on the ground do you see, or the effects of those
00:15:02incentives? Well, everything we listed, those are the effects of those
00:15:05incentives, uh, we were,
00:15:08when I came to the head of the ministry, of course,
00:15:12life neither begins nor ends with us, there were some programs
00:15:15and I presented my vision
00:15:18of how the program, I can freely say, well, since I came to the head
00:15:22of the ministry, I have been working according to the program that I presented three
00:15:25years ago, four, well, four years, well,
00:15:29we succeeded, we succeeded in making that
00:15:32breakthrough, well, you said that we increased the number
00:15:36of incentives, the largest incentive we give is for strengthening
00:15:39the competitiveness of our companies, that is, purchasing
00:15:43equipment, introducing new technologies, certification, after
00:15:47that, uh startups, uh,
00:15:50young entrepreneurs, women entrepreneurs, the last
00:15:54empathy we had, we brought back again the right of old traditional crafts
00:15:58which we consider the base that produces
00:16:01all other branches
00:16:04in business, in the economy. And well,
00:16:08I can freely say that we have, thank God, succeeded,
00:16:11uh, when we have these results, because in
00:16:14the economy, in politics, all other colleagues
00:16:18can manipulate, can say that they will save us, that they will
00:16:21do this for us, that they will bring us into the European Union, we are already
00:16:25the Zenica-Doboj Canton, the economy of the Zenica-Doboj Canton is already in the European
00:16:28Union, we already operate according to European standards, we already export
00:16:32our largest export market, I wanted to ask that now through those incentive
00:16:36programs, actually. that you support the introduction of other international
00:16:39standards and certificates and actually exactly what I wanted to ask is how
00:16:43competitive are Zenica companies, or
00:16:47the European market? Well, they have to be, we have to be competitive, we
00:16:50don't have, well, I said at higher levels of government someone to take us
00:16:54by the hand and say, here, I'm opening a new market for you, I've been a minister for
00:16:57four years and we have
00:17:01dozens of visits with businessmen and foreign, I said
00:17:05countries, I don't remember anyone in jest as Minister
00:17:09of Economy inviting me, come let's go on a delegation, the Germans
00:17:12called me, people from other countries called me, they recognized what
00:17:16the Minister of Economy Samir Šibonić is doing, but from our country
00:17:19from higher levels of government no one invites us,
00:17:22except that they often cause us harm with their narratives,
00:17:26where we have to explain to investors
00:17:30that here, that here they will not have
00:17:33conflicts, that that story about such things.
00:17:37Well, I sincerely hope that it is in the past for us, but well,
00:17:41those are probably the cheapest, the cheapest political points are gathered that way
00:17:45and they go, they talk, I repeat, we deal with
00:17:49real things, I am someone who comes from the economy, it is very
00:17:52difficult to be, to decide, I knew what awaited
00:17:56me, I knew well what awaited me, because I was on the other side
00:17:59and I know what we businessmen expected from the ministers
00:18:03of economy, mm, who unfortunately, well,
00:18:06mm... before me it was as if there was nothing, yes, the fact is that citizens
00:18:10themselves can contribute to, well,
00:18:14improving the situation in the economy, uh,
00:18:17the way you launched the campaign last year: "Buy domestic, strengthen Bosnia and
00:18:21Herzegovina, uh, you allocated
00:18:24about 100,000 convertible marks for that campaign
00:18:27and do you see the effects of that campaign
00:18:31given that a few years ago we witnessed that
00:18:34campaign at the level of the entire Bosnia and Herzegovina. and actually
00:18:37how important are such campaigns to awaken the awareness of citizens, to
00:18:41buy domestic, so that the same products that we
00:18:44produce do not have to be bought from imports? Well, we
00:18:48were on March 23, I think
00:18:52it was March 23, 2024,
00:18:56when I announced that for the first time an institution would institutionally
00:18:59launch the campaign "Buy domestic, strengthen Bosnia and Herzegovina." Uh,
00:19:03I take this opportunity to thank the Chamber of Commerce
00:19:06our working. agencies, associations of entrepreneurs,
00:19:09media, all those who immediately recognized and we really launched
00:19:13a broad campaign from schools, kindergartens,
00:19:17we printed thousands of
00:19:21fairy tales about the most beautiful country, which is aimed specifically
00:19:25at the youngest category.
00:19:27Uh, I think we succeeded if one citizen increases the number by at least
00:19:31one product if they put it in their fridge and say, "From today
00:19:34I decide that I will well... at least, well, we
00:19:38talk most about water, right? and thousands of other
00:19:41Bosnian-Herzegovinian products are domestic
00:19:45that can certainly be competitive not only in
00:19:48quality but also in price, we did an analysis
00:19:52on the market, believe me, by 30, 40%
00:19:55we have cheaper, more affordable domestic products than
00:19:59imported products, there is no single and
00:20:02certainly higher quality, but well, the awareness of citizens is important, which seems
00:20:05to be low. We drink water here in the studio, right,
00:20:09if someone offered us to bring us a glass of water from Hungary,
00:20:13neither you nor I would drink it, so I call on
00:20:17citizens to think, it's not just
00:20:20about that, about emotion, how much
00:20:23we contribute to our
00:20:26development of our homeland, certainly every, uh, every
00:20:30dinar that we invest in buying domestic
00:20:33products will return to us tomorrow, we will all be pensioners tomorrow.
00:20:37So we will wait to see if there will be regular pensions, regular pensions
00:20:41can only be if the economy works, the economy
00:20:44fills 80% of the budget and all that we have today in
00:20:48Bosnia and Herzegovina, and this media. and thanks to
00:20:51activists, that is businessmen, someone among
00:20:54businessmen made the decision to invest so that we can now
00:20:57talk like this, uh, in this comfortable studio and
00:21:01that's why domestic is very important, buying domestic
00:21:05products, buy domestic, strengthen Bosnia and Herzegovina
00:21:08is something we started two years ago, it hasn't stopped, we continue,
00:21:12there will be new panels at Zeps, there were last year as well,
00:21:16and we invite all citizens to join us, all citizens. in Bosnia
00:21:20and Herzegovina, how will they join us? We often talk about
00:21:23patriotism, I say, patriotism is reflected, well, let everyone
00:21:27who is watching us now, open their fridge, they will see exactly how much of a patriot
00:21:31they are when they look at which products they consume. When we talk about
00:21:34the economy, for the economy to work, it is important to also dedicate attention to tourism,
00:21:38the tourism sector, in your mandate you established the Tourist Board
00:21:41of the Zenica-Doboj Canton, uh,
00:21:44well, what is the strategy actually
00:21:47for positioning the Zenica-Doboj Canton on the tourist
00:21:50map, considering, well, that this canton does not only offer industry, but there
00:21:54are also other tourist potentials? Well, when I
00:21:57started the story about the Tourist Board of the Zenica-Doboj Canton,
00:22:00it was also a similar story as with Zeps, it was shut down, we don't need
00:22:04it, what do we need it for? I say it is, if we want to develop industry without
00:22:08chimneys, that is tourism, right, that is the best way to
00:22:12develop that healthy industry and I think that the Zenica-Doboj Canton
00:22:15has enormous potential, the indicator itself is that last year
00:22:19we had. 46%
00:22:22of overnight stays by foreign tourists, that it is continuously growing,
00:22:25with the establishment of the tourist board, the opening of new hotels, we got
00:22:29four or five new hotels, well, Olovo
00:22:32broke the record in the number of overnight stays, a small
00:22:35municipality, you remember everyone was talking about that miracle, these are
00:22:39all things that we are doing, well, we have been doing, and can it be better, well, somehow
00:22:42to say that it doesn't become the Zenica-Doboj Canton an incidental
00:22:46stop but rather that it is intentionally gone to, well,
00:22:50mountains, spas and everything else that this canton offers. Now you said
00:22:53spa,
00:22:57I, in cooperation with the municipality of Olovo, we
00:23:01have already found a new water
00:23:03source at 586 m, we will, God willing,
00:23:07build new new hotel accommodation in
00:23:10Olovo because existing capacities are already full, mm
00:23:14as for spa
00:23:17treatment we want to make it
00:23:20accessible to all citizens, well, we are also happy about
00:23:23what Ajdinovići also achieved with their
00:23:27business moves and the Zenica-Doboj Canton, well,
00:23:30Zenica itself, I always talk about the new image of Zenica,
00:23:33Zenica has been building the image
00:23:36of that heavy
00:23:39industry for years, Zenica already has uh
00:23:42uh, we can freely say, we can certainly say a clean
00:23:45industrial zone, where a large number of companies that have received
00:23:49our incentives." already working, exporting and doing well,
00:23:53on the other hand, I would like to mention mm
00:23:56that a thousand years ago,
00:23:59837 years ago, I think that August
00:24:0228th will be the anniversary mm of the charter of August
00:24:0629th, which will be the annual victory of Ban Kulin,
00:24:09837 years uh, why am I
00:24:13saying this, the Zenica-Doboj Canton from
00:24:16Vranduk, Tešanj, Maglaj, here, our ministry
00:24:20is cleaning the Maglaj fortress from ivy, you will see what a beautiful
00:24:23fortress Bobovac is, Bosnian kings
00:24:27resided there, we must not forget that and we invite all
00:24:30citizens from Bosnia and Herzegovina and other and other other
00:24:34countries to visit the Zenica-Doboj
00:24:37Canton, these fortresses are truly
00:24:40beautiful, uh, that very ambiance when a person comes,
00:24:44when he looks, it makes me proud, when
00:24:47I see what our people. did
00:24:50800 years ago and when we see a document, I don't know
00:24:54uh the charter of Ban Kulin which is perhaps the oldest
00:24:57economic document a declaration
00:24:59here mm here we can
00:25:02freely say on which the fundamental declaration, the first
00:25:06declaration when the European Union was being created, it was made on an
00:25:09economic document, Mr. Šivonić, I had a few more questions
00:25:13but unfortunately our time is up, I hope there will be an opportunity to talk more, thank you
00:25:17very much for your time and for the viewers of N1 television, thank you. Also, dear

00:26:33Dragana, why is collagen so important for our body? Everyone
00:26:37talks about it. Collagen is the basic protein of skin,
00:26:41joints and connective tissue. Its production significantly decreases
00:26:44with age, leading to wrinkles, decreased skin elasticity
00:26:48and joint pain. That's why it's very important to
00:26:51replenish it. Why is it especially important in the warmer period?
00:26:55Do you have a recommendation for a specific collagen? During warmer
00:26:58weather, the skin is exposed to sun and dehydration, so...
00:27:02additional support is needed, collagen helps the skin stay
00:27:06firm, hydrated and age slower, as for recommendations,
00:27:09yes, bio style, powder
00:27:12collagen, contains hydrolyzed collagen which is
00:27:15best absorbed, vitamin C which improves absorption, a novelty
00:27:19which is very important, hyaluronic acid which has additional
00:27:22benefits such as skin hydration and, how should I say,
00:27:26lubricating joints and cartilage. Dragana, who are
00:27:29the people who, in your opinion, would most feel the benefits
00:27:32of collagen?
00:27:35I would recommend it to everyone who feels stiffness, difficulty
00:27:39moving, fatigue, pain or inflammation in bones and
00:27:42joints, also for osteoporosis, rheumatism,
00:27:45arthritis, for muscle weakness, inflammation
00:27:49or muscle cramps, for damaged cartilage and knee
00:27:52problems, for spine or hip problems, also when
00:27:56it comes to very poor circulation, capillary rupture
00:27:59or varicose veins, it can also
00:28:02be used for high blood pressure and cholesterol,
00:28:05it is very important to note, also after recovery from
00:28:09operations, injuries or severe illnesses, also for skin
00:28:13problems when it comes to cracked skin, eczema and when
00:28:16it comes to age spots, allergies, stretch marks,
00:28:19cellulite, also for hair loss or poor quality
00:28:23teeth, dear viewers, I invite you to call

00:28:40I realized that I couldn't
