| Hyaluronic acid(HA,Hyaluronan) is a straight
chain macromolecular mucopolysaccharide composed of repeat
disaccharide units of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamin.
It widely consists in the extracellular
space of human and animal tissue, vitreum, umbilical cord,
skin joints synovia and cockscomb, etc.The commercial HA is
commonly a sodium salt,
habitually called HA is a new biological at
home and abroad. Its molecular weight is from several ten
thousand to several million. It¡¯s aqueous solution has
outstanding moisture keeping ability, high viscoelasticity
and lubricity. It is widely used in cosmetics, pharmacy and
health and beauty food. |

The Natural Face Lift? |
By: Jakki Francis
In Yuzuri Hara, a village in Japan, ten percent of the
population is 85 or older. Diseases of aging, such as
cancer, diabetes and Alzheimer's, are virtually unknown.
People rarely see a doctor and their skin rarely shows
signs of aging. They live long, healthy active lives.
As reported on the ABC News program 20/20, researchers
have discovered the agical?ingredient that appears to
keep people in Yuzuri Hara young. It is
Hyaluronic
Acid,
which is found naturally in the carbohydrate foods that
are unique to the hilly terrain of this village.
The Times Newspaper (UK) reported 'New LIFE in OLD
BONES: Researchers are looking for the genes involved
with osteo-arthritis, which may lead to more effective,
targeted therapies. Some studies have also shown
positive results from injections into arthritic joints
of hyaluronic acid, a component of the bodies own
lubricant fluid, which seems to delay the need for a
joint replacement.'
What Is It?
Hyaluronic Acid; or Hyaluronan is a natural substance that is
plentiful in our bodies when we are born.
It is found in all human connective tissue.
What Does It Do?
HA(Hyaluronic
Acid) occurs naturally in the deeper layers of our skin
(the dermis). It helps to keep skin smooth and "plump"
through its ability to hold up to 1,000 times its weight
in water.
It lubricates the joints.
HA plays a critical role in the rapid repair of wounds
and other skin conditions.

1. Moisture Retention
The ability to retain and hold moisture is the secret to
youthful, healthy, vibrant skin.
Aging robs us of this innate ability to hold in
moisture. As we get older our bodies produce less and
less hyaluronan. The drop in HA(Hyaluronic
Acid) starts at around the age of
18-20 years. But after the age of 40 the down slide
becomes apparent. Skin starts to lose its elasticity and
lines and wrinkles appear.
HA(Hyaluronic
Acid) also supports the formation and maintenance of
collagen, an important connective tissue. Collagen
degradation is believed to cause a decrease in skin tone
and elasticity.
Healthy, youthful skin comes from the inside. By
replacing the components that naturally deplete with
age, we can reverse the signs associated with aging.
HA(Hyaluronic
Acid) supplementation puts back in what is naturally lost
to restore radiance and youth. |
