Uckele NA Hyaluronate Eye and Joint Supplement, 60 ct

Uckele’s natural cherry-flavored chews support eye and joint hydration, providing a healthy 50 mgs of Hyaluronic Acid per tablet. 

Uckele’s natural cherry-flavored chews support healthy joint synovial fluid levels for healthy eye and joint hydration. Providing a healthy 50 mgs of Hyaluronic Acid per tablet, these delicious chewables support joint mobility and flexibility for optimal elasticity and movement. Na-Hyaluronate chews can help maintain the fluid between the joints to support joint cushions and lubrication.

HA is a gel-like water-holding molecule that is the space filler and cushioning agent in all mammals. HA gives elasticity to the joints and retains water in the cellular matrix. It’s important for tissue hydration, lubrication, and proper cellular function.

HA is an important component of both the cartilage itself and the joint fluid, and functions in situations where connective soft tissue support may be also indicated, because the health and function of joints involves more than cartilage. This is because bone, whose framework is connective tissue, can lose density around joints with age and wear. HA supports ligaments and tendons in their critical roles in maintaining the stability of joints for controlled motion.

One third of HA in the body is degraded and synthesized on a daily basis. Since the body’s HA levels also decrease with age, it is important for the support of tissue hydration, lubrication, and proper cellular function.

HA is composed of d-Glucuorinic Acid and N-Aceytle D-Glucosamine and is found in both the extracellular and intracellular matrix, especially in soft connective tissues. Noted for its ability to form highly viscous solutions, HA is the primary constituent for synovial fluid (joint lubricant) found in joints. Hyaluronic acid in the  eye  is found in the vitreous humor, which is a clear gel that fills the central part of the eye, and is formed by a network of collagen and Hyaluronic Acid which fills about 80 percent of the eyeball’s volume.

HA acts as a shock absorber for the eye and also helps transport nutrients into the eye. HA also plays a major role in maintaining the health of ocular tissues such as the cornea, the retina, and the vitreous fluid that fills the inside of the eye. Studies show that with age, the amount of HA the body steadily decreases, with the eye losing 50% of its ability to product the needed HA by mid-life. HA supplementation can maintain proper eye health.
