Hyaluronic Acid:
Okay, surely you have seen it in skin care products, but did you know you can get the full benefit via pill form.
What can Hyaluronic acid do for the skin?
Hyaluronic Acid moisturizes skin, reduces wrinkles and get this...it acts to cushion the joints. Walla! No more pain from the demon Arthritis and Fibromyalgia and the like.
This amazing nutrient is made by the body and its main job is to lubricate joints so the movement of our fingers, elbows, knees and toes function smoothly and freely. Doctors now have discovered however, that Hyaluronic acid plays a major role with skin cells, restoring their fluid balance, and acting kind of like glue to help hold them together, which keeps the skin looking smoother and younger.
Another plus is its ability to hold water like a sponge, absorbing up to 1,000 times its weight, which means more moisture in each skin cell. This helps to maintain water within the extracellular space, hydrating your skin and increasing its volume and density. Hyaluronic acid is also involved with the transport of essential nutrients to the skin's viable cells. Hyaluronic acid provides volume, helping to contribute to the skin's overall appearance.
Top skin care lines now include creams and serums with hyaluronic acid such as our Amazing Anti Winkle 55 Gold Serm and Supreme Peptide Cream. Sullivan and others also believe it's equally powerful taken in supplement form. The nutrient isn't readily available in food.
Hyaluronic acid contributes significantly to cell proliferation and tissue formation, which results in the way your skin looks, feels, and functions. A natural complex sugar found in all mammals, it's a major component of the connective tissue matrix in the dermis—the dense, inner layer of skin beneath the epidermis. This matrix is made up of hyaluronic acid as well as two connective fibers—collagen and elastin.
By nature our skin is exposed to environmental pollutants and the sun's ultraviolet rays, which causes our cells to gradually lose the ability to produce hyaluronic acid. Studies have shown that older skin typically has lower levels of hyaluronic acid than younger skin. Thus our skin tissue becomes dehydrated and the collagen and elastin fibers lose their structure, resulting in a loss of skin volume and the formation of the facial wrinkles and folds that are common characteristics of aged skin.
Hyaluronic acid supplements have been hailed as the ultimate anti-aging nutritional supplement. By taking this supplement, you can have healthier skin, increased energy, strength, stamina, reduced fat, stronger muscles, hydrated skin, improved digestion, lower cholesterol and blood pressure and and a greater life expectancy. It supplies your body and skin with more moisture, resulting in a more youthful appearance, advanced affects on the entire body, influencing the growth of cells, bones, muscles and organs.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) moisturizes skin from the inside out, smoothing out wrinkles in the process. HA acts as an internal cosmetic to hydrate the skin.
Hyaluronic acid is for people who need to ease the painful movement of their joints, especially their knees, by restoring cushioning to their joints.
Hyaluronic acid is for men and women in their 30s and 40s who are beginning to see the first signs of aging. It is also for seniors who have cronic joint conditions. Studies show oral hylaronic acid supplementation provides these benefits to most people after administration for only 2 to 4 months.
Basic Functions of Hyaluronic Acid
As Hyaluronic Acid is present in every tissue of the body, never underestimate its importance. Retaining water is one of the most important biological functions of hyaluronic acid, second only to providing nutrients and removing waste from cells that do not have a direct blood supply, such as cartilage cells. With a lower than adequate amount of hyaluronic acid, nutrients cannot be moved into these cells and waste cannot be eliminated from cells.
Hyaluronic acid is found in the synovial joint fluid, the vitreous humor of the eye, the cartilage, blood vessels, extracellular matrix, skin and the umbilical cord.
Hyaluronic Acid Enhances Skin Elasticity
A January 2006 bioassay report states the effectiveness of BioCell Collagen II(r) with hyaluronic acid (HA) in inhibiting hyaluronidase. This enzyme degrades hyaluronic acid, a glycosaminoglycan extracellular matrix constituent which can contribute to signs of aging on the skin. HA is found in varying levels in the dermis. Variations in levels account for natural skin alterations associated with aging, such as decreased turgidity, less support of microvessels, wrinkling, and altered elasticity. By inhibiting hyaluronidase, levels of hyaluronic acid in the skin can increase, reducing wrinkling while enhancing natural collagen production.
A bioassay was commissioned by AIBMR Life Sciences, Inc., Puyallup, WA, due to their interest in hyaluronic acid. The study found that BioCell Collagen II(r) with HA shows a concentration dependent inhibition of hyaluronidase in concentrations ranging from 250 to 4,000 micrograms/milliliter.
Alex Schauss, Ph.D., Director of Natural and Medicinal Products Research at AIBMR Life Sciences, explained that aging causes variations in natural hyaluronic acid concentrations in the skin. He points out that collagen is also known to be an important component in reducing wrinkles. HA has been shown to promote fibroblast proliferation. Since fibroblasts are an important source of collagen, inhibition of hyaluronidase may enhance hyluronic acid levels and increase collagen production.
"The bioassay demonstrated that BioCell Collagen II(r) inhibited hyaluronidase production by 88 percent in vitro within the concentration range of 250 to 4,000 micrograms/milliliter. This finding provides in vitro evidence that BioCell Collagen II(r)'s natural occurring combination of collagen and hyaluronic acid may promote skin health via enhancement of skin elasticity possibly resulting in a reduction in wrinkles," said Dr. Schauss.
BioCell Collagen II(r) is a natural type II collagen dietary ingredient that provides a naturally existing matrix of bioavailable hyaluronic acid (10%), depolymerized chondoritin sulfate (20%), and collagen type II (60%). With a patented process, BioCell Collagen II(r) was developed as a molecularly optimized ingredient that could be easily absorbed by the body.
The unique ingredient contains a generous amount of hyaluronic acid, gaining increasing interest as an important joint and skin nourishing element that allows skin to retain moisture and promote healing and skin tissue rejuvenation.
"This research further supports scientific findings supporting BioCell Collagen II(r) with HA as an effective ingredient essential to maintaining skin health and keeping skin younger looking longer," said BioCell Technology's vice president of marketing, Asma Ishaq. "The findings from this in vitro bioassay strengthens BioCell Collagen II(r)'s marketplace position as a leading ingredient in the quest to boost skin health and prevent aging naturally."
Skin care products containing Hyaluronic Acid are often used in conjunction with vitamin C products to assist in effective penetration. Hyaluronic acid (also known as a glycosaminoglycan) is often touted for its ability to "reverse" or stop aging. In news reports, you might have heard of hyaluronic acid as the "key to the fountain of youth." This is because the substance occurs naturally (and quite abundantly) in humans and animals, and is found in young skin, other tissues. and joint fluid. Hyaluronic acid is a component of the body's connective tissues, and is known to cushion and lubricate. As you age, however, the forces of nature destroy hyaluronic acid. Diet and smoking can also affect your body's level of hyaluronic acid over time. Skin care products with hyaluronic acid are most frequently used to treat wrinkled skin.
