Benefits
Skin hydration
Oral hyaluronic acid supports the skin's ability to hold moisture, improving hydration and a plump, healthy appearance from the inside.
Elasticity and smoothness
In a clinical study, the full-spectrum hyaluronan improved skin elasticity and profile measures, supporting firmness and a smoother surface.
Joint lubrication
Hyaluronic acid is also a component of joint fluid, so oral HA is used to support joint comfort and lubrication.
Mechanism of action
Water-binding matrix
Hyaluronic acid holds many times its weight in water, supporting the moisture content and volume of the skin's extracellular matrix.
Multi-weight signaling
Different molecular weights of hyaluronan signal differently to skin cells, and the full spectrum is intended to support both hydration and renewal.
Clinical trials
Clinical study of oral intake of a full-spectrum hyaluronan on skin parameters. (Michelotti et al. 2021, European Journal of Dermatology)
Adults.
Oral full-spectrum hyaluronan improved skin hydration, elasticity, and profile measures versus baseline, supporting its skin benefits.
