Re: Hyaluronic Acid -- anyone use?

[Guest guest]

Never tried it Rose... all I can tell you about it is that Hyaluronic acid for supplementation is extracted from rooster combs. And that is usually has results in 2-4 months (I think that is what I read at one time)..

The kids have been keeping me busy, plus spring cleaning, etc.I was wondering if anyone here uses hyaluronic acid? I purchased a small bottle of tablets at my local HFS about 3 days ago. I don't know if it is pure coincidence, but my skin felt absolutely wonderful this morning when I was in the shower. I can't imagine it is working this fast,

but was wondering what people in the know think?My main reason for taking this supplement is to improve the softness and elasticity of my skin but also for joint support.If anyone has a preferred source for HA, I'd be interested in hearing about it. I am quite sure the HFS price is a rip off compared to some of the online vendors.Many thanks,Rose in PA Suzi What is a weed?

The

only vegetarian source comes from beets, and other obscure root vegetables, and

its effectiveness is not well proved. Originally, it was refined from rooster's

combs; allergic reactions have been severe to this, and so now it is most often

entirely synthetic.

The

best way to help with a lack of HA is to stop the ongoing free radical damage

that attacks this very vulnerable part of our cells. Therefore, antioxidant supplementation is

helpful (wheat sprouts, CoQ10, grape seed/skin combo), and also aphanizomenon flos aquae, which is a great source of amino acids that helps to

rebuild HA, as well as being a potent antioxidant (and it’s coming from a

food source, not a synthetic supplement).
