Horsetail Extract
Horsetail Extract is naturally rich in readily absorbable silica. Studies have shown silica’s primary function is to develop and maintain proper connective tissue and bone health. Silica also helps the body store more calcium. Horsetail Extract helps promote proper joint function.
Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) occurs naturally in the body. The highest concentration is found in the soft connective tissue. It is present in cartilage, synovial joint fluid and skin tissue. It is essential for preservation of synovial fluid, which maintains bones and joints. HA also works to hydrate the skin from the inside out.
