Hyaluronic Acid in the Skin
As we age, the HA content in our bodies naturally decreases. One way this decrease manifests is from UV radiation which breaks down collagen fibers leading to wrinkles and flaccid skin.
Hyaluronidase, an enzyme produced by free radicals, is an enzyme that also breaks down collagen fibers. HA counteracts this enzyme by plumping the inner layers of the epidermis in a more effective way than topical HA application alone. HA supports against premature aging and promoting a youthful skin environment by hydrating the skin from the inside.
Hyaluronic Acid in the Joints
HA is found in high concentrations in areas of the body that endure increased movement and friction. HA's unique high viscosity properties provide vital shock absorption and lubrication to the joints.
Hyaluronic Acid in the Eyes
As we age and HA production slows, eye problems such as poor vision and dry eyes can manifest. HA is an important constituent of the ocular (related to the eye) tissue and is essential for normal functioning of the eye.
