Doctor'sBest Hyal-Joint Hyaluronic Acid -- 20 mg - 120 Capsules

Hyaluronic acid, also known as “hyaluronan”, or “HA”, is a large poly saccharide (complex sugar) molecule composed of disaccharides linked together in a chain. It belongs to a family of biological compounds called “glycosaminoglycans” (GAGs). These complex, versatile molecules impart structural strength and integrity to cells while providing elasticity and lubrication to joints and other body parts. GAGs can be thought of as anatomic “glue and grease” that keep bodily structures strong, supple and moving together smoothly. Our tissues contain more hyaluronic acid than any other GAG.


Extra
Humansare fluid-based organisms; the body contains up to 70% water. Cells have a high water content along with various intracellular (inside thecell) organelles. The extracellular (outside the cell) matrix itself isa water world. This non-cellular environment is highly dynamic: acomplex bio-field in which cell-to-cell communication and a grand arrayof other biochemical functions take place. Theextracellular matrix provides the cushioning and support for joints,the bone-to-bone connections that allow us to move. For this to workaccording to nature’s design, fluids occupying the spaces between bonesneed to be slippery and elastic in order to keep friction from buildingup as joints move harmoniously in their life-long anatomic dance.
Hyaluronic acid is essential for the viscosity of jointfluid;the “slipperiness” that allows us to move freely and easily. Hyaluronicacid is remarkably viscous: 5000 times more so than water! The synovialmembrane, the protective layer surrounding joints, is rich inhyaluronic acid––the pliancy and resiliency of our joints would benon-existent without it; we’d be like the Tin Man waiting for someoneto bring us an oil can so we could move once again. When you feel thespring in your step and the bounce in your run, thank nature forhyaluronic acid; you would never experience the joy of movement if itwere not for this amazing biological substance that permeates yourentire body.
