When Hyaluronic acid is taken orally, does the stomach acid break it down so you don’t receive the benefits?
Stomach acid doesn’t break down HA but the vast majority of the oral dose won’t be absorbed and will be excreted in the urine and feces. Same goes with the Synthoval Seven, by their own admission on their internet page where it says only 5% of the oral dose find its way on the blood stream. In fact it is only 4.4% as the full study proves it :
Actually I found only one distributor that uses a very high absorption HA (69%) in their products for skin and health, Pureskin and Hyalgen http://www.essentials21.com
At one time it was thought that stomach acids destroyed the Hyaluronic Acid molecule. More recent research has shown a large portion of the molecule goes undisturbed by the acid and goes on to be absorbed in the small intestine. Synthovial Seven is the purest, most absorbable Hyaluronic Acid available.
