Joint health
I’ve been using this product for a few years and it really does help with joint health. They are not to hard to swallow, and helps with skin hydration.

Back and knee hurting less
These are easy to swallow. They seem to be working. Fewer aches and pains.And the collagen ingredient seems to be helping my skin. They do not disclose the dosing, ingredients, and milligram content of the hyaluronic acid on their description which is why I am giving 4 stars instead of 5. If I had known it was not pure hyaluronic acid, and that two capsules need to be taken (making it more expensive than other options), I doubt I would have ordered it. However, it’s a good product.

Beware of fluid retention everywhere – not just skin and joints
8/11/11I bought these capsules for my mother and myself for the benefits to skin and joints. My mother has osteoarthritis and I myself have been starting to have knee pain from abuse at the gym. I have to start by mentioning that I had microdermabrasion done about a month ago and have really been taking care of my skin since (regular masks and scrubs, never sleeping without thoroughly cleansing and moisturizing). So my skin texture was looking better than it has in years when I started taking these capsules 6 days ago. Therefore, although I believe that hyaluronic acid probably works wonders for the skin, I cannot say whether or not it is the reason why my own skin looks good right now. I still have knee pain, but it has only been 6 days. What I can see is that in 6 days, I have gained 4 and a half pounds. I exercise regularly and keep track of everything I eat – my habits have not changed. But I feel like I am bloated as if it is my time of the month (I’m not because I started the pills right after). I am clearly retaining water. I’m not sure if this feeling would go away once my body adjusts. I am considering continuing with the pills. However, my mother has high blood pressure. Many people with high blood pressure are on diuretics, intended to keep them from retaining fluids, which causes an increase in blood pressure. I have asked my mom to stop taking the capsules immediately. I will check my own blood pressure – which normally runs on the low side -tomorrow. Maybe my body will adjust in a few more weeks and I will be thrilled with the results. As I continued to research the side effects of hyaluronic acid online, however, I found this: […]I do not endorse the above site and do not know if what is written is accurate or not, but I do want to learn more about the pills. It seems to have many benefits and maybe some serious side effects as well. I don’t know if I would want to risk cancer to have beautiful skin.All I can say definitely is that after 6 days, I am definitely heavier.8/13/11 Edit:After reading about the possible link between hyaluronic acid and tumor progression (if you do a search for hyaluronic acid and cancer, you can find plenty of arguments either way), I stopped taking these pills. That was at the end of day 6. Since then, I have lost 4 pounds (in 36 hours) and I feel less puffy. I must say though, my skin looks amazing. I just turned 33 and I have been noticing a loss of volume in the nasolabial folds. Yesterday and today(I imagine the hyaluronic acid supplement is still in my system),I have volume there again. I can hardly believe it. I think the plumping of my skin in the nasolabial fold area is the result of these pills and not just a good skin care regimen. My skin is glowy and looks so refined. My mother even noticed a difference. I love the skin improvement so much that I might be willing to take the water weight gain. The uncertainty of whether or not there is a correlation between ingesting hyaluronic acid and tumor progression is making me hesitate. I would love some professional medical insight if someone has any because I do want to take it. If there isn’t a correlation, this stuff is like a miracle for the face. I didn’t notice a change in knee pain in the mere 6 days that I took it.

Hydraplenish – great stuff!
I’ve been taking Hydraplenish for years, and I firmly believe it is responsible, at least in part, for my having pretty good skin for my age. People compliment me all the time on my skin and those who don’t know my actual age generally assume I’m 15 to 20 years younger than I really am. I’m old enough now that I take great delight in telling them my real age – just to see the look on their faces. 🙂 I also take a scoop of collegen powder in my morning coffee, so I suspect that, along with taking good care of my skin, also contribute.

Easy to take

VERY GOOD FACIAL TREATMENT.
