--25 Grams Hyaluronic Acid (Hyaluronan, Hyaluronate, HA)-- Hyaluronic Acid is a naturally occurring compound that is found throughout most of the human body. The average 154 pound person has approximately 15 grams of hyaluronic acid in his or her body, with about 5 of those grams being used up and re-synthesized every day. The properties of hyaluronic acid were first discovered in the 1930's by a scientist named Karl Meyer. Hyaluronic acid plays a major role in synovial joints, as it makes up a large part of synovial fluid. It is also a big part of tissue repair. It is also often used in a number of medical applications, being extremely useful primarily because it makes up such a significant part of cartilage, skin, and eyeballs (particularly the vitreous humor). Hyaluronic acid plays a very big role in many different cosmetic products. It has an especially important role to epithelial tissue (outer surface of the skin) because it promotes the growth of keratinocytes and retinoic acid (vitamin A metabolite) and it helps collagen synthesis. Hyaluronic acid is also used to treat articular disorders in primarily racing and work horses.
