Hyaluronic Acid is a Natural Substance That Prevents Wrinkles and Keeps Your Body Supple

Hyaluronic Acid – The Natural Face Lift?

By: Jakki Francis

In Yuzuri Hara, a village in Japan, ten percent of the population is 85 or older. Diseases of aging, such as cancer, diabetes and

Alzheimer's, are virtually unknown. People rarely see a doctor and their skin rarely shows signs of aging. They live long, healthy active lives.

As reported on the ABC News program 20/20, researchers have discovered the ‘magical’ ingredient that appears to keep people in Yuzuri Hara young. It is hyaluronic acid, which is found naturally in the carbohydrate foods that are unique to the hilly terrain of this village.

The Times Newspaper (UK) reported in New LIFE in OLD BONES:

"Researchers are looking for the genes involved with osteo-arthritis, which may lead to more effective, targeted therapies. Some studies have also shown positive results from injections into arthritic joints of hyaluronic acid, a component of the bodies own lubricant fluid, which seems to delay the need for a joint replacement."

What Is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic Acid; or HA is a natural substance that is plentiful in our bodies when we are born.

It is found in all human connective tissue.

What Does Hyaluronic Acid Do?

HA occurs naturally in the deeper layers of our skin (the dermis). It helps to keep skin smooth and "plump" through its ability to hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water.

It lubricates the joints.

HA plays a critical role in the rapid repair of wounds and other skin conditions.

Moisture Retention

The ability to retain and hold moisture is the secret to youthful, healthy, vibrant skin.

Aging robs us of this innate ability to hold in moisture. As we get older our bodies produce less and less hyaluronic acid. The drop in HA starts at around the age of 18-20 years. But after the age of 40 the down slide becomes apparent. Skin starts to lose its elasticity and lines and wrinkles appear.

Hyaluronic acid also supports the formation and maintenance of collagen, an important connective tissue. Collagen degradation is believed to cause a decrease in skin tone and elasticity.

Healthy, youthful skin comes from the inside. By replacing the components that naturally deplete with age, we can reverse the signs associated with aging.

Hyaluronic acid supplementation puts back in what is naturally lost to restore radiance and youth.

Joint Lubrication

Hyaluronic acid occurs throughout the body in less than abundant amounts in many of the places people with hereditary connective tissue disorders have problems, such as joints, heart valves and eyes. Hyaluronic acid abnormalities are a common thread in connective tissue disorders, e.g osteoarthritis.

Wound Repair

Another important part of good skin is the ability to quickly heal wounds. This ability is slowly degraded with age. In part, it is due to the slowing down of cell mitosis, crucial aspect of cellular repair and regeneration. A possible contributing factor is also the decrease in the amount of hyaluronic acid available in the body.

Vision

Hyaluronic acid makes up 80% of the human eye - it is present in the vitreous humor of the eye and assists in vision. HA is a shock absorber to the retina thus helping to prevent trauma to the eye.

Anti-aging products that use Hyaluronic Acid

There are two types of HA anti-aging products:

Those that are applied externally in cream or gel form, such as Cellex-C Hydra 5-B Complex:

or

Those that are taken as a health supplement and work internally, providing moisture to the inner layers of the epidermis, such as Source Naturals Hyaluronic Acid.

Taken internally, hyaluronic acid penetrates the corium layers of the epidermis, which no topical application is able to. This provides essential HA components to the cell level where it can work effectively, whilst still moisturizing the skin and reducing wrinkles.

Dermadoctor has introduced a new hyaluronic acid antiaging skin cream. Faux Fillment Instant Topical Line Filler.

This is a cream applied topically onto the skin that boasts an advanced microencapsulated nanosphere complex, which isolates molecules of ionically charged Hyaluronic Acid and Fulvic Acid. When united, hyaluronic acid is supercharged to over 2,000 times its original charge!

When the nanospheres break, the molecules combine as they contact the skin. Supercharged Hyaluronic Acid is propelled into the skin at a high velocity. Once it has penetrated, significant volume is restored. Within twenty minutes, the added volume lifts and smooths wrinkles, lines, depressed scars and skin creases.
