Jarrow’s Formulas’s Hyaluronic Acid Complex

The Hyaluronic Acid Complex is produced for people who have been suffering of joint problems over the years. The combined formula of hyaluronic acid, glucosamine, chondroitin, and MSM or methylsulfonylmethane promotes joint, tendon, and ligament flexibility. It is specifically made for the complexity of the cartilage structures.

Composition

Hyaluronic Acid Complex capsules are made of patented bio active hyaluronic acid, which has undergone a hydrolisation process with the enzyme hydrolase to yield a low molecular weight. This low molecular weight will assure that the Hyaluronic Acid Complex is properly absorbed, and no side effects such as gastrointestinal problems will occur.

Glucosamine, on the other hand, is an amino sugar. Amino sugars are made from amino acids and simple sugars. These amino sugars are the building blocks of glycosaminoglycans, (GAGs).

These GAGs can retain water and appear as large spongy water-holding molecules. They act like glue that holds two surfaces together.

The third component of Hyaluronic Acid Complex capsules is another GAG, chondroitin sulfate. Its role is to keep the fluids in the cartilage fluid and elastic. Its source natural as it is readily found in the body. It is one of the main components of connective tissues. A connective tissue builds and supports cartilages found in the joints and other body parts.

Hyaluronic Acid Complex is also composed of MSM or methylsulfonylmethane. It is a naturally occurring form of sulfur and its sources include body fluids, cow’s milk, and plants. It supports joint flexibility by supporting joint lubrication and movement.

Jarrow Formulas

Jarrow Formulas is a nutritional supplement formulator and marketer since 1977. They distribute their products to more than 20 countries such as the United States, Europe, Australia, and Asia. They offer a whole lot of nutritional products like vitamins, minerals, probiotics, herbal concentrates, amino acids, and enteral nutrition formulas.

One of their popular products is the Hyaluronic Acid Complex where collagen is also added to the other four components commonly found in Hyaluronic Acid Complex. The Biocell collagen has low molecular weight and is water soluble. It is mainly derived from chicken sternum cartilage and is considered safe and natural.

A 50 mg Hyaluronic Acid Complex capsule contains at least twenty percent chondroitin sulfate and ten percent hyaluronic acid. The company is a pioneer in obtaining hyaluronic acid from chicken sternum as most of the compound is obtained from rooster combs.

Other Hyaluronic Acid Complex Compositions

Some Hyaluronic Acid Complex capsules today have also manganese and ascorbic acid. They influence the production of collagen and in the metabolism of protein and cholesterol.

Manganese is responsible for the growth maintenance of tissues, cartilage, bones and other connective tissues. Vitamin C protects cells from harmful free radicals by strengthening the collagen fibers.

Though Hyaluronic Acid Complex has garnered a lot of praises from its users, it is still very essential that you can consult your physician before you take them. You could be suffering from certain underlying diseases that would aggravate with the introduction of hyaluronic acid into your body.
