Hyaluronic Acid In A Snapshot: Facts and Benefits!

Hyluronic acid is a substance naturally produced in the body. It holds a thousand times its weight in water to not only retain moisture in our skin and joints, but also preventing that moisture from evaporating into the air, according to Dr. Lily Talakoub, a dermatologist at the McLean Dermatology and Skincare Center.

Just a single gram of hyaluronic acid has the impressive ability to hold up to six litres of water. Add to that, is the intelligence to regulate moisture within the cells.

It can treat burns, wounds, and skin ulcers when applied topically. It can also treat severe knee pain from osteoarthritis when injected. It relieves joint pain by keeping bones well lubricated. 

When used on the largest organ of the body, the skin, it promotes hydration, youthful appearance, and healthy feel.
