Hyaluronic acid - Hyaluronic acid, 180 capsules Double Wood

Hyaluronic acid is a natural organic compound that is present in high concentrations in the human body. Its main function in the body is to retain water, thereby contributing to the healthy hydration of the tissues containing it. Hyaluronic acid also plays an important role in maintaining joint health and wound healing. With age, its content in the body decreases, making it one of the increasingly popular nutritional supplements.

Hyaluronic acid
Technically, hyaluronic acid is a sugar, or more precisely a polysaccharide, from the glycosaminoglycan group, that is naturally present in the human body. It is a thick, clear substance that is widely distributed in the body's connective, epithelial, and nervous tissues.

Hyaluronic acid is one of the basic components of the extracellular matrix – a three-dimensional network of macromolecules such as collagen, enzymes, and other important proteins that provide structural and biochemical support to the surrounding cells, which gives it an important role in cell proliferation and migration.

The main biochemical functions of hyaluronic acid are to maintain the shape and elasticity of the eyes, provide lubrication to the joints, limit inflammatory processes, assist in wound healing, maintain cell hydration, and maintain the fresh, youthful appearance of the skin.

The body naturally produces hyaluronic acid, but over time its reserves in the body decrease. The reason for this is not only the natural processes associated with the aging of the body, but also a number of factors such as the impact of the environment and especially solar radiation, smoking, alcohol consumption, and others.

Health effects of hyaluronic acid
Supports joint health – As an important building block of articular cartilage, hyaluronic acid helps maintain the elasticity and flexibility of cartilage and plays an important role in its resistance to mechanical stress. It is also part of the synovial fluid, whose function is to reduce friction in the joints. Thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, hyaluronic acid also contributes to the relief of symptoms of various rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and some other joint diseases.
Contributes to skin strength and elasticity – Hyaluronic acid’s ability to bind to water more than its weight in water helps to deeply hydrate the skin and maintain its smoothness and elasticity. It has also been found to contribute to improving the skin barrier, which protects the body from pathogens, allergens, and other irritants.
Promotes wound healing – Hyaluronic acid helps hydrate the extracellular matrix, thereby stimulating cell migration into damaged areas. In this way, it promotes the formation of granulation tissue on the wound surface, which helps build the new structure and increases its protection from infectious pathogens.
Relieves dryness and discomfort in the eyes – About 15% of older people suffer from a problem known as “dry eye”, which is the second most common reason for visiting an eye doctor after impaired vision. Thanks to its hydrating properties, hyaluronic acid is one of the most used remedies for such symptoms. It is also often applied after eye surgery to speed up recovery and reduce discomfort.

Scientific studies show that hyaluronic acid can also help overcome problems such as vaginal dryness, heartburn, gingivitis, and mouth sores.
