Full Description
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is produced by keratinocytes and is a member of a large family of glycosaminoglycans which are the main components of the extracellular matrix. It is abundant in tissues and fluids with the highest concentrations in synovial fluid, vitreous humor and skin. Studies have revealed that most HA properties depend on its molecular size. Many sources of HA consist of a high molecular weight which is too large to be absorbed in the intestines. HyaMax sodium hyaluronate provides a low molecular weight source of hyaluronic acid produced through a fermentation process. In a pharmacokinetic study, orally administered HyaMax hyaluronic acid was incorporated into joints, connective tissue and skin with a particular affinity for cartilaginous joints.†
