What's the Hype about Hyaluronic Acid?

What's the Hype about Hyaluronic Acid? - and why is it SO good for me?

Forget all the painful and expensive skin care products that don't even really work because, you may not know this, but Hyaluronic Acid is a NATURALLY OCCURRING substance within our bodies! Do I really need to vouch for it anymore?

By binding to water, it drastically aids our bodies water retention. With about 50% of the Hyaluronic Acid we contain occurring in our skin, it's vital in fighting signs of ageing and keeping your skin clear and supple.

As your skin is dehydrating, the efficiency in operation and communication of your cells gradually reduces, until hydrated again. By applying Hyaluronic Acid to your skin cells, they begin to incorporate more water. 

Ultimately, your cells age progression depends on their hydration levels, so if you keep your cells hydrated, they won't age. The more dehydrated they are, the less efficient they are at regeneration and communication, resulting in worsening the cycle of ageing. Hyaluronic Acid prevents this is as it forces your cells to stay hydrated and healthy.

More Acid is actually produced by our bodies when our skin is wounded, which makes it heal faster through regulating the inflammation levels.

It's benefits don't just stop at your skin!

• It dramatically speeds up healing time for mouth and tooth pains, eliminating ulcers and the perfect addition when recovering from mouth surgery.
• The deep hydration provided also makes your joints more lubricated, resulting in relief from uncomfortable pain.
• Regular doses have been proven to drastically reduce pain in sufferers of osteoarthritis, having effortlessly better results than placebo pills or other recommended medication.
• Further, it helps soothe the lining of our internal organs. Hyaluronic acid is being used to help repair the lining of the esophagus, stomach and throat. Sufferers of Acid Reflux have proven to show a much faster recovery taking Hyaluronic Acid supplements than placebo pills.
• It also reduces your rate of bone loss as you age, and further increases the activity of osteoblasts - the cells responsible for the repair of your bones. Crazy!

So how do I utilise Hyaluronic Acid and its benefits?

Natural progression of age, over-exposure to the sun and tobacco smoke are some of the things that can decrease your natural Hyaluronic Acid content. But regular doses dramatically increase skin moisture, softness and vibrancy. It's also been proven that using Hyaluronic Acid reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and makes the skin appearance smoother.

Purchased in powder form, tablet form, injections or as a concentrate in countless skincare products - Hyaluronic Acid is secretly in everything, and is one of the simplest yet most drastic additions to put into your skincare (and life) routine.

Once again... Is there anything more I need to say! The benefits are countless, and you're only missing out if you don't get your one way ticket on the Hyaluronic Acid Train!
