Hyaluron & Collagen Powder 210g

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is vital to great looking skin. While collagen gives skin its firmness, it is the HA that nourishes and hydrates the collagen. 50% of the HA in our body resides in the skin. Hyaluronic acid production decreases with age causing a reduction in moisture binding capacity, resulting in dry skin and weak joints. HA, collagen and elastin are vital ingredients in maintaining the skin's layers and structure. HA acts as a space filler between cells, while collagen and elastin fibers act as a constant lubricant. HA is also present in the synovial fluid of joints and eyes, providing vital moisturizing protection and flexibility. HA may help slow signs of aging, wrinkles, fatigue, and diminishing eye functions. FINE HA has low molecular weight to ensure optimum absorption and utilization by the intestinal tract. Collagen is a major protein component in the human body. Approximately one quarter of the proteins in the body compose collagen. Collagen maintains the strength and flexibility of our skin, connective tissues, ligaments, bones, joints, muscles, tendons, gums, teeth, eyes, blood vessels, nails and hair. Elastin is a protein that works with collagen to make skin elastic. Elastin allows skin to "spring back" into place when stretched so skin stays resilient and firm. With age, elastin production slows and existing elastin dries and shrinks, losing its natural ability to provide skin with elasticity, texture and firmness. FINE Elastin supports the body's elasticity in skin and connective tissues. Pearl Coix (Hatomugi), also called Job's tears in the East.
