Product Description
Skin is the organ that contains the most hyaluronic acid in the body, however, levels decline as we age, with a 75-year-old having only approx. 25% of what they had at 19 years.
When orally ingested, high molecular weight hyaluronic acid is distributed to all layers of the skin, connective tissue, organs, and joints supporting moisture/lubrication and structural integrity throughout the body. It also supports endothelial health and integrity in our blood vessels.
Hyaluronic acid supports skin health by supporting moisture retention and elasticity.
Health Benefits:
Supports skin health & moisture
Supports joint health
Supports immune health
Supports organ health
Supports endothelial/blood vessel health
Hyaluronic acid serums brought into question.
A 2020 double-blind human study showed topical skin serums containing hyaluronic acid performed no better than placebo at achieving visible improvement in the skin.
This means to be most effective, hyaluronic acid needs to be taken orally for it to be properly distributed throughout the skin layers and the rest of the body.
It's important that the hyaluronic acid ingested is of a high molecular weight which more closely matches the natural hyaluronic acid in the human body.
Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid often used in topical serums has been shown to promote inflammation in the body when ingested and should be avoided in oral supplements.
High molecular weight hyaluronic acid supports healthy inflammatory responses and normal cell homeostasis (balance).
Matakana Health's Hyaluronic acid has a high molecular weight of 2.3 million Dalton.
Our Hyaluronic acid is made by fermentation from Streptococcus zooepidermicus.

FAQ's
What is hyaluronic acid and what does it do?
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance produced by the body and found in all connective tissue and organs, where it plays a key role in maintaining structure, lubrication and moisture. It is most concentrated in the skin, which holds more hyaluronic acid than any other organ in the body. Like collagen, levels decline as we age. By the age of 75, the body retains only around 25% of the hyaluronic acid it had at 19. Supplementing orally helps support moisture retention, structural integrity and lubrication throughout the skin, joints, organs and blood vessels.
Why should I take hyaluronic acid as a supplement rather than as a topical serum?
Topical hyaluronic acid works primarily at the surface of the skin, where it draws moisture to the outermost layer. While this can offer short term hydration benefits, it does not address declining levels of hyaluronic acid deeper within the skin, or in the joints, connective tissue and organs where it also plays an important role.
When taken orally, hyaluronic acid is distributed throughout the body, supporting moisture retention and structural integrity from within. For people looking to support their skin, joints and overall connective tissue health in a more comprehensive way, oral supplementation is worth considering as part of a consistent daily routine.
What is the difference between low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid?
Molecular weight refers to the size of the hyaluronic acid molecule, and it matters more than most people realise. Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, which is commonly used in topical serums, has been shown to promote inflammation in the body when ingested orally and is best avoided in supplements. High molecular weight hyaluronic acid more closely matches the natural hyaluronic acid found in the human body, supporting healthy inflammatory responses and normal cell balance. Our hyaluronic acid has a high molecular weight of 2.3 million Dalton, which is why we are confident it is the right form for oral supplementation.
How long does it take to notice a difference?
This varies from person to person depending on age, diet, lifestyle and the levels your body is starting from. As with most supplements that work at a foundational level, consistency is more important than speed. Many people report noticing changes in skin hydration and comfort within four to eight weeks of daily use, though for some it may take longer. We always recommend giving any new supplement at least three months of consistent use before assessing the results.
Can I take hyaluronic acid alongside collagen or other supplements?
Yes, and the two actually complement each other well. Collagen provides structural support to the skin, while hyaluronic acid supports moisture retention and lubrication. Together they address two of the key factors involved in skin and joint health as we age. Our hyaluronic acid capsules can also be taken alongside other supplements in your routine without any known interactions, though if you are taking medication or managing a health condition, it is always worth checking with your healthcare professional first.
Is hyaluronic acid suitable for vegans?
Yes. Our hyaluronic acid is produced via fermentation, meaning no animal-derived raw materials are used. The capsule shell is made from cellulose, making the entire product suitable for vegans.
Is this product suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
As with all supplements, we recommend consulting your healthcare professional before taking our Hyaluronic Acid Capsules if you are pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding. While the ingredients are generally considered well tolerated, every pregnancy is different and your doctor or midwife is best placed to advise based on your individual circumstances.
How does hyaluronic acid support joint health as well as skin?
Hyaluronic acid is present throughout all connective tissue in the body, not just the skin. In the joints, it acts as a lubricating fluid that supports ease of movement and cushioning. As levels decline with age, this lubrication can reduce, which is why many people find joint comfort becomes a growing concern over time. Taken orally, our high molecular weight hyaluronic acid is distributed to joints and connective tissue as well as the skin, supporting both from within.
This is my on going order, very good for the skin, awesome result.
