HA and Skin

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

It is true that HA is one of the compounds that’s responsible for keeping skin smooth, moist and healthy looking. Normally, skin cells produce plenty of it. However when skin is exposed to too much UVB radiation from the sun, inflammation can shut down the skin’s HA production, in some instances permanently. It can also cause existing HA in the skin to degrade. This is why HA has the potential to take the skin care market by storm.

Is there HA in food?

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

We get that question quite a lot. The answer is yes, in a few cases. Very few foods containing HA have been identified. However there seems to be a consensus that HA is present in starchy root vegetables and in meat products rich in connective tissue.

They said it couldn’t be done!

Monday, November 9th, 2009

After a serious cycling accident and arthroscopic surgery on my right knee, I was told that I would never be able to run again.  However, I continued to swim and cycle, and my knee improved – but not to the point that allowed me to run.

Then, I was introduced to LubriSyn!!!  After using it for 30 days, I was able to run a little, and pain-free!!

I have now used LubriSyn for 3 months, and can run 3 miles pain-free.  The beauty of LubriSyn is that it has worked for me, and has NO side effects.  This 58-year-old grandma is delighted with the product!

Sincerely,

Dr. Colleen Isdale, Chiropractor

What does molecular weight have to do with it?

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

The molecular weight – i.e. the size of the HA molecule – has everything to do with the effectiveness of a particular HA product. As we all know, there are lots of HA products on the market these days. Not all of them are effective, and some of them may actually be harmful.

Low molecular weight HA is essentially made up of fragments of the big HA molecules that are native to the human body. It has nowhere near the effectiveness of high molecular weight HA, and according to some studies, may even cause infammation.

The HA in Lubrisyn precisely matches the molecular weight of the HA that’s native to the human body.
