Product Notes:
Hyaluronic acid also plays an important role in our joint fluid, where it acts as a lubricant, and helps absorb shocks. But we don't produce as much of it on our own as we age (maybe only half as much by the time we hit our fifties), so a supplement can often help.
This NOW Foods High Potency HLA formula also contains L-Proline, which is essential for collagen formation (which also helps protect the skin from aging), and may be lacking in vegetarian diets, along with Alpha Lipoic Acid and Grape Seed Extract for additional antioxidant protection.
