Spotlight on Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) remains a stellar ingredient that is beneficial for human health and wellness in several important and desirable manners. HA is a critical nutrient for skin (both health and beauty) that helps to retain collagen, increase moisture and provide elasticity and flexibility, helping to stave off physical signs of aging in the face.
HA is also useful for protecting major joints from accelerated degradation due to aging, normal wear and tear -- especially for those active middle-aged and senior individuals who enjoy working out.
Basic information
Chemically speaking, hyaluronic acid (also called hyaluronan or hyaluronate) is a linear polysaccharide with repeating disaccharide units composed of D-glucuronic acid and N-acetyl glucosamine. It is a naturally occurring biopolymer whose molecular structure is highly conserved between mammalian species.
