Benefits of taking oral hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is a clear, sticky substance that is naturally produced by our bodies. The greatest amount of acid is found in human skin, eyes and connective tissue. The main function of the substance is to retain water in tissues.
Hyaluronic acid is used in many ways. For example, someone takes it as a dietary supplement with food, someone has purchased eye drops containing it, and someone does it with the help of microinjections.
Consider the main benefits of taking hyaluronic acid orally.
The skin becomes more elastic
Additional intake of hyaluronic acid will help your skin to be more elastic and have a healthier appearance.
50% of the acid of the whole organism is contained in the human skin. Over time, the body begins to reduce the production of this substance, which leads to skin aging. External factors can also have a detrimental effect on the amount of hyaluron (exposure to ultraviolet radiation, tobacco smoke, etc.).
Taking an acid supplement will help your body prevent a decrease in production of the substance by providing it with an extra dose of the substance.
It has been proven that taking 120-240 mg of acid per day for a month significantly eliminates dry skin, which causes wrinkles.
Accelerates wound healing
When the skin is damaged, the concentration of acid in this area increases. In such cases, the acid can not only be used orally, but also applied to damaged areas. This will help the wound heal and relieve pain. Since the acid also has antibacterial properties, applying it to the affected area will help to avoid infection.
Reduces joint pain, stimulates the production of joint lubrication
The joints also contain this substance. It stimulates the production of lubricant that fills the space between the joints. Lack of lubrication can cause joints to touch each other, causing discomfort.
People suffering from osteoarthritis (wear and tear of the joint over time) are prescribed hyaluronic acid. It is often injected directly into the joints to relieve pain.
