Healthy Skin*

The ability of Tremella to improve the health and complexion of the skin is attributed to the fact that some of the polysaccharides in Tremella can help the body maintain the production of hyaluronic acid, the production of which normally declines as the body ages. The function of hyaluronic acid in the body is, amongst other things, to bind water and to lubricate moveable parts in the body such as joints and muscles, and to help keep the skin pliable, firm and moist from within. Hyaluronic acid is a carbohydrate, more specifically a mucopolysaccharide occurring naturally throughout the body Through extensive research over the years, hyaluronic acid has yielded amazing results in various applications and locations throughout the body. Joint cushioning and support, connective tissues, scalp tissue, hair follicles, eyes, gum tissues and skin have all been known to benefit by hyaluronic acid supplementation. However, Tremella is thought to support the body’s ability to maintain the production of hyaluronic acid from within, without the drop off in production that normally comes with aging. This is a much better option than trying to add hyaluronic acid later, through supplementation, as the body’s production of hyaluronic declines with age.
