Hyaluronic Acid Benefits: Skin Care and More!

Hi. I emailed Ted directly re: how to use his HA remedy for spinal degeneration. Will that also get posted to this website, when or/if he answers? My questions were; His mixture of Hyaluronic acid in sea salt and water were not extremely clear. I read his referred Purebulk website directions on mixing, and they were a little different. In Ted's mixture:
1. Does the water have to be 39 degrees F. Or lower?
2. How do I measure 1 gram of sea salt?
3. Does the formula go bad after 48-72 hours like that on Purebulk?
4. Mine did not gel up like Purebulk talks about, although Ted used 500 mg. HA, purebulk used over 2 grams, I believe. 5. Do you have to shake it every 2-4 hours for 12-24 hours like Purebulk instructs?
I am SO excited about starting this regiman, as is my husband. I actually mixed his up this yesterday morning, and shook it appropriately (is this necessary, Ted?) and gave him 8 capfuls this morning. He very sceptically asked me how long it takes to work. I said anywhere from 1 day on, why? He said he could hardly walk on his knee this morning, 3 hours later, no pain! Awesome if this would be "the Miracle Cure", huh?
God Bless, Lisa from SW Louisiana

Lisa,

One gram of salt is approx 1-1/2 teaspoon (per Google), also 8 capful is equal to approx 1 shot glass. Accoding to Ted, this formula lasts over 2 weeks. Can you let me know when you pour 8 caps into a shot glass, do you fill up the shot glass?

Hi all, I was about to buy from the purebulk site but got a little confused by Ted's initial comments. Can you clear up for me this comment: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand writes: "... Hyaluronic acid, yes I buy them from purebulk. The only particular brand I like is not the brand itself but for those formulations used for horses, which is proven to work. So Purebulk do not do an equine HA product." What does this mean then please? As I'm buying for international shipment the order will be very expensive for a months supply so I need to know what I'm buying! Cheers for viewing, best wishes, DJ

Having read numerous posts here about hyaluronic acid, I am now trying it, but in the various suggestions I find some confusion. So I am appealing to the generosity of knowledgeable contributors who take the time to share their expertise. When taking the hyaluronic acid tablets:

1. Should it be refrigerated?
2. Should it be taken on an empty stomach, or with food?
3. Should it NOT be taken at the same time as vitamin C, or any other particular supplements?

None of these issues is addressed on the bottle. Many thanks for this wonderful site.

I know some of the answers...

1. Refrigerated best
2. Either way with food or empty stomach both work for me..
3. The one with Vit C.. I do not know the answer.. When you say Tab.. Normally tabs takes a long time to dissolve, sometimes more than 20 minutes which does not do too much for the body. Capsules are better,

Alfred

Thank you for your reply. I am taking the same brand as what Lisa from Thousand Oaks is taking. As for the tablet dissolving in water, I always wondered about that test, since the stomach contains hydrochloric acid that is 10 times as acidic as pure lemon juice and can have a pH of 1 or less... In any case, I hope I get the same benefits as you and Lisa, and the many others who have generously reported their experiences. Thank you, Sue

To Bill from San Fernando, Luzon

I have been taking's Ted's Hyaluronic Acid formula for the disk & back problem on empty stomach (3 times a day), he also recommends taking magnesium citrate on empty stomach also, can I take both of them at the same time ?

Thanks Bill for your advice.

Hello everybody...... After reading many of your feedbacks, i'm a bit confused, since some people is getting positive results but not with HA as itself (only) since many products are mixed with collagen or conditrion and so on.......... About The purebulk HA and Ted's mix---some people can't take salt as you may know so taking it alone isn't it as good as mixed one?

Hello,

I am begging you to please help me sort thru all this confusion about the reference to Hyaluronic Acid (HA) in Ted's post and so many other posts on this product and treatment. Another poster stated that the HA from purebulk is not pure bcos the Chinese cut it with synthetic?

Ted's quote: "Hyaluronic acid, yes I buy them from purebulk. The only particular brand I like is not the brand itself but for those formulations used for horses, which is proven to work. Purebulk does not sell a equine HA product."

What does this mean and then please, where can I buy the HA Ted is talking about?

Continued from Ted... "My formula that works is as follows: 500 mg of Hyaluronic acid powder (sodium hyaluronate) plus 9 grams of sea salt in 500 cc of water. Store in refrigerator when not in used. The formula advocated by the (purebulk) will not work as it degrades Hyaluronic acid since vitamin C will obviously degrade them. They do get more stable if EDTA is added in small amounts as free metal irons tend to degrade them. The dose is about 8 caps three times a day empty stomach."

Is the EDTA to be added to Ted's formula? Or is the EDTA only added if the vitamin C is included?

I wish that someone from EC would post clearer instructions for Ted's bulk formula and where to buy it. Should it be taken on an empty stomach, or with food? What size caps is he referring to? What would the dosage be in teaspoons instead of caps? I have read so many of the posts on this subject and it seems that many people are very, very confused as well. Some say to just buy the product already prepared by natural product suppliers and others say it doesn't work.

Then Alfred from Bangkok swears by Purity Products.com and yet when I do a google search review on the Purity company, Many people have been burned by Purity, stating it's a scam. Why is Purity so unethical with it ordering/shipping "IF" it's such a quality product???

I am in much pain and would like a real easy and cheap method of taking the effective type HA, which will cure and not just manage my degenerative disc disease.

Will you please help me. Thank you.

Thank you for your response but you obviously didn't read my post all the way thru. The issue is NOT that I can't use google to find HA, the issue is (quote from my post):

Ted's quote: "Hyaluronic acid, yes I buy them from purebulk. The only particular brand I like is not the brand itself but for those formulations used for horses, which is proven to work.

Another poster's quote in reply to Ted's post above: Purebulk does not sell a equine HA product." What does this mean and then please, where can I buy the HA Ted is talking about?

Another poster stated that the HA from purebulk is not pure bcos the Chinese cut it with synthetic?

My question: If Ted prefers the HA used on horses, and if another person states that Purebulk does not sell equine HA, then from whom does Ted buy this "horse HA"??? Yet another poster claims that Purebulk cuts it with synthetic. (Scary! )

My question could not be plainer in lieu of the above quotes/statements by other posters.

Next quote from my post: Then Alfred from Bangkok swears by Purity Products.com and yet when I do a google search review on the Purity company, many people have been burned by Purity, stating it's a scam. Why is Purity so unethical with it's ordering/shipping "IF" it's such a quality product???

Those are only 3 review google searches on Purity Products. There are other negative links.

If Purity Products is such a good product, why are they so unethical in their shipping and credit card practises and why would Alfred recommend them???

I certainly don't want to even remotely try ordering from them. Apparently, once they have your credit card info, they continuously bill and ship product at their will.

Next, Using "bottle caps" as a mode of measurements is just plain wrong. Not all water bottle companies use the same size cap! Some use wider caps, others use smaller caps, depending on the size of the bottle. So what is the proper measurement in terms of measuring spoons? And what type of water, spring or distilled?

You also missed the fact that I stated that I would prefer to buy in bulk since the HA supplements that many companies are selling are very expensive. The prices in my health food stores, here in Canada are anywhere from $45 and up, for 100mg of HA, 60 capsules, which also have other things added to the mix.

According to the link you provided for Purebulk, they have 3 HA's to chose from. So which one does or did Ted use? HA (bovine, vegan or vegan wheat free). None of these 3 even remotely describe the use for horses!

Also, you didn't answer whether it should be taken on an empty stomach or with food.

Bottom line, if you went and read ALL the posts to Ted about Purebulk, then you would see where so much confusion lays. Another poster found the HA from Purebulk, when mixed, grey and not blending very well.

Your reply has left me still confused as to where to buy in bulk this "horse type of HA, since it's been stated by another poster that Purebulk does not carry it, and that Purebulk uses synthetic in their product! btw: They sell it in lots of 10g bag, 25g bag, 50g bag. Which size of bag should one order for a mth supply? Ted says to use 500mg of HA and according to you, that equals 1/8 teaspoon. Thank you for the translation. :)

At times, Ted's instructions are vague, that's why there are always so many posts with so many questions.

Yes, many companies sell HA in capsule forms, and if you look at the ingredients, they add a lot of other product into the mix. So my other question is, which company selling the HA capsules, is the best one to buy from, other than from Purity Products, since they don't have a good reputation with ones credit card.

I have been doing my homework and there seems to be different sources for this HA. According to Consumer Guide to Oral Hyaluronic Acid Supplements: http://www.prweb.com/releases/hyaluronic/hyalogic/prweb492817.htm

quote: Q. Are HA supplements, which contain glucosamine and chondroitin, derived from shellfish?

A. No. HA supplements are derived from natural sources such as rooster comb, or chicken sternum cartilage, or synthetically made from a vegetarian source by fermentation of corn syrup. The latter is a purer source, while the others provide additional collagen, which is also beneficial.

Given that there are 3 sources that HA is derived from, and that Consumers Guide states that the fermented corn syrup is best, which is the one that Ted refers to as the one given to horses?

And given that Purebarn sells bovine and vegan, and Ted is not clear as to which one he buys from them, hence the reason for so much confusion. I look forward to your reply. Thank you.

Hello,

I ordered Ultimate H.A. Formula from Purity Products for the first time about 3 years ago. Here's the link to the exact product. We only order 1 bottle at a time (the top choice), not the "Super Saver" or "Buy 4 Get 1 Free" option. It's very pricey for sure. I don't use it, but my husband still uses it regularly and finds it helpful when used in conjunction with other supplements like Fish Oil, Magnesium and more. We have never have any issues with this company.

Hi Jeanne,

Thank you for trying to help, but I just don't trust that company after reading all the negatives about them.

It puzzles me why, if Purity Products HA is so good, why your hubby still needs to use it. In Ted's original post, he stated that the brand he uses actually "CURES" degenerative discs and joint problems.

Perhaps your husband didn't take the 500mg of HA per day like Ted recommended? On the back of the bottle, look at the mg of the HA only, not the combined total of all the ingredients.

That's why I was hoping to find and buy the exact same HA that Ted way using bcos it's much cheaper doing it his way.

Dear Bill,

I came across Ted's remedy for DDD.

I went to Purebulk's website to order Hyaluronic Acid powder, so I found that they have three types of HA: Bovine, Vegan, and Vegan wheat-free.

As I don't know what the difference is between them, I asked the sales guy he said that the most popular one is the Bovine one, so I ordered this one. I received the shipment and I started taking the remedy yesterday.

My question is what is the difference between long and medium chain, and what about the weight difference between the bovine and the vegan and which one should I use for Ted's Remedy?

I read somewhere that the bovine molecule does not get absorbed properly by the intestine as it is too long, is this statement correct?

Thank you all for the trying to help people, this is wonderful!

Peace, Bob

Alfred, I would like to start taking HA, my health food store carries one at 150mg. Is this too much? You said you take 100mg three times a day. Should I take 150mg twice a day. And for a much sillier question- Will I grow a bunch of hair in places I don't want-face and arms. Thanks, Tina

Alfred, Thanks for answering. Yes it was PP, if we're talking about the same PP. All I can say is it was in capsule form, ad was on the radio, one bottle free and two more charged. I did not do water test. I think I did three total a day. I did whatever the directions said for two days each time. I forgot to add in original post, I'm very sensitive. When I was tested for allergies many years ago I was allergic to 40 percent. I'm sure hundreds of people could take this without a problem, otherwise I'd have sent form to the FDA. I seldom have a problem with nutrients and when I do it's very minor. I think I got caught up in their talk about how it helps get rid of wrinkles or I'd have left it alone after the first try. Serves me right to be that vain. I'm 69. Can't expect to look 55. Would be nice though.
I will contact Ted. Thank you.

To Judy from Colorado:

What an interesting post!

Your results sound as if you've clearly had an allergic reaction to an ingredient contained in the HA (to be precise). You've stated that your allergic to your 'water pills'..(you probably have allergies to many things). Recommendation is to see an allergist, and get tested for the many things you seem to be allergic to. Sometimes a person will be highly sensitive to chemicals, foods, ingredients, plants, even herbs, and may exhibit signs of allergies. These can be confused with an 'allergic' reaction.

A severe allergy, however, is life threatening, so it's advisable to not try taking the product that caused any significant swelling or discomfort again). Do yourself a favor & see a an MD. Eat well, and most importantly, exercise!

Hi Everyone, I just wanted to write about hyaluronic acid. I know that Alfred had a specific recommendation of which I ordered online and went through 4 bottles. When I ran out I was on holiday so I went to the health food store and found another brand and thought I'd give it a try. Well, it was fantastic! I had really good results with it and might venture to say even better than the recommended one. The brand I found is Source Naturals and the product is called Hyaluronic Joint Complex (with Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM). In addition it has collagen. Then, when I went to find it again, I could not! So, I decided to give another a try. This time it was the same company, Source Naturals but instead it was their Skin Eternal Hyaluronic Acid and still it worked quite well. The first one though was better for my needs which is hip pain. Now, the bonus- the first one was only $15 and the second I found on sale for $10! That's way less than Alfred's recommended. Here's to health, Lisa

Lisa,

In checking on-line to try and find the Source Naturals brand that you recommended, I found that most people complained of the size of the pills. Some said that they returned them and a few said they just couldn't take them. Of those that could get them down, they seemed pretty happy with the results. What's your feeling on the size of the pills?

Thanks, Kay

Hi Lisa, I am following your results with the hyaluronic acid and am glad to hear another brand not as expensive is working just as well. My question is can you up date on any new developments or if not any can you please restate how hyaluronic acid has been helping you. Thanks so much.

Hi PR and Kay, To answer your questions: The Source Natural pills are two different sizes. The joint complex pills are quite large although I didn't give it much thought until you posed that question. The way I have always taken pills though makes it easy I think. Since you usually have to take supplements with food, I chew a mouthful of food well and then when I'm ready to swallow, I put in a pill and it goes right down with the food. At any rate, that works for me. Now, the Skin Eternal formula of theirs- the pills are considerably smaller. Both have the same amount of hyaluronic acid in them but the Joint complex has considerably more ingredients. The reason I bought the skin formula was because I knew this company made a superior product since I had excellent results with the Joint complex and they also had an equal amount of HA. I bought them but as soon as I found the Joint complex again I grabbed them. I also noticed that the Joint complex sells out fast! So, obviously others notice their effectiveness.

As for my results that I notice, my skin is very soft and supple, my joints feel lubricated, wrinkles are almost non-existent on my neck and face. And at 53, that's a bonus! That being said, I have to honestly say that a lot of that may be due to my diet changes which are lots of raw veggies and a green smoothie daily. The biggest reason I wanted to try the HA though was to feel a difference in my hip joints because that has been an on-going search for several years at this point. After reading Ted's explanation about HA and what it does for the body I tried Alfred's HA recommendation. Definitely noticed a difference immediately but after the initial change, didn't notice anything more. Also, they were quite expensive. THEN, I tried this company's Joint complex and Wow! Big difference. Just what I have been searching for! It really is nice to be out of pain. Hope this info helps. Lisa

Thanks Lisa, for your reply. It was helpful.

Hi Lisa, I'm about to finish my supply of the "preferred" brand of HA and was delighted to read your update. Could you let me know how many milligrams you take each day (of the new brand)? Also, are the pills any larger than the ones that Alfred recommended? I feel that the HA is helping with general stiffness but have not noticed the other effects. Perhaps I need to take a larger dose. Thanks so much. I hope you are enjoying your summer. Lee

Hi Lee, I am happy to update! First off, I would like to say that this morning, after 2 days back on the Hyaluronic Joint Complex, I woke up completely able to walk without any catching in my hips! It feels miraculous. Especially after 5 years of pain. . . I am not sure what kind of effects you are after but that was exactly what I have been in search of. My diet change took care of many things but did not make any difference in my hip challenges. So, in light of this, I would have to say this formula is the answer over the Skin Eternal formula that this company offers, though they both have the same amount of HA in them. Two tablets have 100mg of HA, 600mg of Type II collagen, 750mg of glucosamine, 600mg of chondroitin and 400mg of MSM. It works for me! For myself, I have found that 3 tablets with my lunch and 3 with dinner work. I am going to stay with this for a couple of days and then cut back and see if my results remain the same. As for the size, the joint complex are large but I wrote how I take them in my last post which poses no problem for me. I think also that it is important to always remember the principle of uniqueness! This formula really works for me and I really gave the other one a fair shake- 4 bottles. I remember too that Deirdre had a negative reaction with the other one due to what she believes was from the inositol. This formula does not include that. For those who are sensitive to that, this may be the answer. We all have to find what works for our unique body. I hope this info helps Lee. If you have any other questions, I would be happy to answer them. Lisa

Lisa Congratulations. . No more joint pain after 5 years. . You now take 300mg per day. 3. . 50mg tabs per meal ( two meals). . I am very happy for you. . Just one thing when you talked about $15.00 price with Source Natural that was for a 15 day supply (not 30 day supply) Continue your climb for better health. My best. . Alfred

Hi Lisa,
I just read your post on HA and had to comment. I too have been taking Source Natural's HA, in both the kinds you mention, the Joint Complex and the Skin Eternal formula. I think I wrote a post last month(?) about this. I started HA because of knee pain due to some over-enthusiasm at the gym. Within a few days my pain had disappeared and the bonus was that my skin looked and felt so smooth and I seemed to have new energy. I became an instant believer in the positive effects of HA and I can't thank earth clinic enough for all the info they allow to flow through. And I also would like to take this opportunity to thank Alfred for his original post about HA. I went to Whole Food to buy the brand he mentioned but they did not have it. Instead, I was led to Source Natural and was told that it was equally good. Since then, I'm on my second bottle (I take two a day, one in the AM and one in the PM) and along with a teaspoon of turmeric mixed with raw honey, black pepper and coconut oil washed down with a glass of warm water first thing in the morning, my knees have given me no trouble at all. Like you, I too have become a convert to green smoothies ( I try to have a green smoothie at least for one meal every day) and the difference is amazing: I have tons of energy, sleep like a log, and best of all, I have begun to lose weight!

Hi Ted, I am new to this site and I am wondering about taking Hyaluronic acid for Degenerative Disc Disease. My husband takes pain medication daily(2-3 500 mg percoset) and I am wondering if anyone has experienced any side effects by taking the HA in addition to pain medication. He desperately wants to find a solution to getting away from taking pain medication, and from everything I've been reading about HA it sounds like this may be the solution he's been searching for.

Hi Alfred -

I am glad to hear you are feeling better. I always enjoy reading your posts here on Earth Clinic.

I had a thought concerning the HA and how when you went off it for a week you felt bad. I wonder if it is like the reaction people have sometimes when they stop taking high doses of vitamin C abruptly? Maybe if a person stops taking HA they should taper down slowly?

Sorry if you already addressed this idea. I did not see your first post, and am joining this in the middle.

Just wanted to throw that thought out there.

Best to You,
Carly

BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS

I've been taking HA for almost a month now for my knee pain. It helped the pain but I developed a small rash on my back (a common side effect) and my eyes got very itchy. I started with three pills as Alfred had suggested and now I cut it down to just one daily as a maintenance dosage. There is still a faint trace of skin rash in that small area, but I traded it off with my pain. There is a bonus; my skin as a whole is not as dry (more than 20% better) and the color of my nails has improved too.

I am not challenging Alfred's suggestion, I am saying we are all different individually. So test out the dose to see what suits you best!

I don't have any side effects but what would you consider mega doses? I take 3 per day (Alfred's brand)AM, Afternoon PM and PM.

Good day Bev from sunny California,

My reading on HA tells me 300mg a day max.. But Ted uses liquid to heal a specific area.. When he says caps .. each cap about 25mg so 8 caps = 200 and 12 caps = 300 same.. I never figured it out. But Ted can give you a better answer.. Ted is one Amazing person..NO doctors will tell you what Ted tells you. He does a lot of research.. But he is one busy guy.

I Care
Alfred

I'm confused. Alfred, have you been feeling exhausted all during your use of ha, or did it just start? So many of us have been reading your posts with enthusiasm and I, for one, ordered the brand that you are using. So far, I'm feeling fine but am concerned about the potential exhaustion. Could you clarify when this started happening to you? Thank you for all of your insights. Lee

Lee, I did not answer your questions properly.. My being tired has nothing to do with side effects of HA..But When Deirdre had a tired reaction, I was looking for an easy way out. Wishful thinking. Playing long shot. My being tired started when I left California, moved to Thailand and retired.. worked ever since I was 13..Mind does not stop working, planning, its still active.The tireness came from boredom, nothing to do, take it easy.. That not my cup of tea..Soo instead of sitting around I help people and am starting a new business and teaching other people to do the same.. my life is getting back together.. I am keeping it busy.

By me stopping taking the HA for one week, its amazing. I now have pain here and there.. Knees hurting bad. But in a week they will be new again.Please do not worry about the HA.. Only good will happen to you as you go into the future taking HA

I Care
Alfred

Uh oh, my husband and I have been taking NSI hyaluronic acid and he started having very vivid weird dreams after a week or so almost every night, I have had two of them. I thought it was because we are stressed out about his being out of work for a few months.

Anyway, I just ordered 3 bottles of the brand Alfred recommended and hate that he won't take it if it gives him the weird dreams too.

Neither of us have felt tired though.

Alfred and all who take it - do you have this side effect?

I havent tried the hyaluronic acid, but with the blackstrap molasses I experienced very vivid, weird dreams. I had to stop using it. I dreamed of huge rats in my cake, single leg trying to come through my window, wow, too weird for me. I cut out the bsm. Anybody else experience this? One good thing was my new growth hair was coming out black, and not gray.

The one we are taking has:
BioCell Collagen II® 1000 mg

Hydrolyzed Collagen Type II 600 mg

Chondroitin Sulfate 200 mg

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) 100 mg

Other Ingredients: Kosher gelatin (capsule), rice powder, and magnesium stearate

The one that should arrive Tuesday is Hylastin from PP and has:

Purity's HylastinTM is our next generation H.A. formula designed to dynamically support healthy, supple skin with 100 mg of Hyaluronic Acid per serving, plus other powerful ingredients to supercharge your skin and joints, including super concentrated Ultra-Pure Omega-3 Fish Oil, Pomegranate P40pTM Extract, 5-Loxin®, Folic Acid, Borage Oil, IP-6, and Vitamins E, C and B12.

I really hope this one is better as this is not a great time for us to be wasting money, but if it helps his joint pain it will be worth it. By the way, the one we have been taking hasn't helped us in any way at all.

Val

Been quiet on the Home front.. Not too much about HA.. Its keeping my joints limber, mustache in two month will be completly black, cuts and scratches heel very fast with no scars..barnicles of aging disappearing slowly..

Hello Alfred,

I just read your comments about your experience with hyaluronic acid back in summer of 2010. It's 2014 now and I'm wondering whatever happened with that experiment. I'm curious to know how well you are doing or if you ran into any difficulties along the way as I'm considering trying HA myself.

Hi, I read Alfred's post about hyaluronic acid. It seems very expensive to order from the USA. Has anyone any recommendations for a British product of the same quality?

Btw, I had great results from using home-made kombucha and kefia many years ago: clear skin, energy, less aches and pains. Unfortunately, I had loose fillings from bad dental work and I had to discontinue the kombucha.

Many thanks for the site. Renewed my search for health!

I see that Purity Products does not supply Ultimate HA outside of the US or Canada, so I wonder where Alfred in Bangkok gets the supply from, or anyone else non US. I have seen a few ebay site operators selling it that may ship abroad... I'm thinking that the costs of getting Ted's recommended HA from Pure Bulk in the US, means we have to look for a quality european based HA product... Anyone used one yet?

In health - DJ

I have seen hyaluronic acid in the UK in health food shops like Holland & Barrets and Bean Freaks.

I was curious if anyone else has had the success that Alfred has had with HA and if they would share their story? Also, is anyone having sucess with another brand? Is there anything else you are using in combo with the HA?

Good Day Fitanz.. I feel the reason the pill I am taking is working so well is that the HA is mixed with other stuff, to make it easy for the body to absorb. I found out what the other is in the pill from PP and sent it to Earth Clinic.

Also I think 100mg in one pill is too much.. I would rather see it in 2 or 3 pills for better absorption. Stay well.

I Care
Alfred

Hi Fltanz,

I just wanted to say that I have been taking the brand that Alfred recommended. At first I only ordered one bottle, cautious in case I had no results. In 2 days I definitely noticed a marked difference in my joints- as if they were well-lubricated. Also, my skin began to soften even more. I say even more because I have been about 80% raw since Oct '09 and have been green juicing and now green smoothies daily which rejuvenated my skin and health!

Now with the HA all skin damage on my right arm from the sun in Hawaii 4 years ago is gone! Honestly, my arm looked like it was from a 90 year old and I'm only 53- scary!

No significant changes in my hair as of yet but, I will post if I see them. That would be fantastic if that changed! Anyway, since I could clearly see results immediately, I ordered 3 more bottles and am taking it daily.

Hope this helps you, Lisa

Okay - that does it for me! I just ordered the "special" brand. It sounds awesome. I'm a huge walker and love the idea of no joint pain - not to mention all of the other side effects. Will keep you posted! Thanks for all of the info - as always. Lee

Hi Lisa,

I know that product names are discouraged at EC (rightly so, I might add) but I was curious to know which HA product Alfred had recommended, since I would like to buy it too. Would EC permit you to write it? Thanks!

I've a question for Ted about the use of HA. My teenage son hurt his knee while playing sports and tore his cartilage about 9 months ago. He's taking comfrey tea and silica from horse radish for a month or so, but it is not helping too much. I am wondering if HA could help his torn cartilage. I woud appreciate if you could respond to my inquiry. Thanks.

I have been taking hyaluronic acid for a month without any result, the formula I bought was from a well known company and it was good for arthritis so far nothing I mean no changes at all, I still have 3 more bottles because I took the promotion buy 3 get one free, I will finish all, but so far no changes at all, I won't buy it again.

Hi, In regards to the hyaluronic acid, I ordered the brand Alfred uses and within 2 days saw a big difference in my joints. I'll let you know if I see any changes in haircolor, skin, etc. It has now been 2 weeks on a regular basis and I have already ordered and received more. Hope this info helps, Lisa

To Lisa from Thousand Oaks,

Happy that the HA is helping.. My wife had head ache and NO energy.. She is taking Pefect multi, super Greens..NOW NEW person. NO headache plus energy the products..

Stay Well

Alfred

Alfred, are you buying purity products fast acting HA?

To Val from Tampa,

Sorry you're not getting any results from HA..When I was younger, I worked on saving money and purchased pills that I thought were good. Now I am getting along in years, running out of time, I buy the Best Pill I can find..Then I give it Ted's test.. Place pill in water, it should dissolve in 20 to 25 min. The pill from P dissolves in 12 min. Last week I got e-mail from a gal who was taking 400mg of HA.. But her pill did not dissolve.. So that was a waste of money.

Health worth more than money. June 3rd It will be 4 months.. Will send update.

Thank you for asking, Alfred! He can't take them because the capsules (Hylastin) are too large. Lord, they are monsters!

I started taking them 3 days ago though and will definitely let you know if I see any difference in my fine lines, dry skin, vision (oh, to not need reading glasses), gray hair or stiff neck and shoulders. We also just bought a new mattress so that will probably help with the stiff joints.

Val... I agree the pills Hylastin from PP are Big.. But Big and powerful IF you can Swallow them.. I had trouble swallowing them but I finished the bottle by dipping the pill in Honey.. then it went down easier. Then I switched to Ultimate H.A. I take 4 pills a day now.. my hair on my going crazy..People keep looking at me.. Top and back top of my head.. Not a hair. Now a handful.. in black.. Maybe your husband can try the Honey thing.. the other thing if you have Dentures.. take my dentures out.. easier for me to swallow pill....My joints no pain, skin getting younger, barnicles of aging slowly moving on

Take it easy.. try the pill in honey..your husband needs the pills more than you do.

Hi to all, having degenerative disc disease (ddd) in my neck c5-c6 along time, I'm 35 and really disappointed. I was on Hyaluronic Acid for about a month, but nothing so far, now I'm giving up, I don't know if I was doing something wrong, maybe one thing. I was not making the remedy in a distilled water, it was regular store bottle, so to be honest I'm getting a litlle bit suspicius about this purebulk site! And will ask for answers from the supplier next time I buy HA, but from another source.

No results with hyaluronic acid

After reading Alfred's posts about the benefits of this, my husband and I started taking 100mg (2 50mg capsules) daily one month ago. The brand I bought has very high ratings and was just manufactured in March 2010 (so it is not old product). We haven't seen any changes since taking this. Has anyone else tried this? Have you gotten results?

My next step is to try the brand he recommends I guess.

Same for me, unfortunately. I'm going to try the recommended brand next because it does sound amazing.
