Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a natural polysaccharide belonging to the Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) family. It is widely present in human and animal tissues, especially in the skin, synovial fluid, and the vitreous body of the eyes.

Key Benefits:

  • Deep hydration and moisture retention

  • Joint lubrication and mobility support

  • Tissue repair and antioxidant protection

Feature:
HA is highly hydrophilic; 1 gram of HA can bind hundreds of milliliters of water, earning it the name “Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF).”
