Hyaluronic acid is a lubricating substance produced by the body and is present in all connective tissue and organs (it is the main component that gives them structure).
Our high molecular weight hyaluronic acid capsules (2.3mill dalton), support skin health by supporting moisture retention and elasticity.
About
Skin is the organ that contains the most hyaluronic acid in the body, however, levels decline as we age, with a 75-year-old having only 25% of what they had at 19 years of age.
When orally ingested, high molecular weight hyaluronic acid is distributed to all layers of the skin, connective tissue, organs, and joints supporting moisture/lubrication and structural integrity throughout the body.
Hyaluronic acid supports skin health by supporting moisture retention and elasticity.
Health Benefits:
Supports skin health & moisture
Supports joint health
Supports immune health
Supports organ health
Hyaluronic acid serums brought into question.
A 2020 double-blind human study showed topical skin serums containing hyaluronic acid performed no better than placebo at achieving visible improvement in the skin.
This means to be most effective, hyaluronic acid needs to be taken orally for it to be properly distributed throughout the skin layers and the rest of the body.
It's important that the hyaluronic acid ingested is of a high molecular weight which more closely matches the natural hyaluronic acid in the human body.
Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid often used in topical serums has been shown to promote inflammation in the body when ingested and should be avoided in oral supplements.
High molecular weight hyaluronic acid supports healthy inflammatory responses and normal cell homeostasis (balance).
Matakana Health's Hyaluronic acid has a high molecular weight of 2.3 million Dalton.
