Hyaluronic Acid Side Effects

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!

Hi Val: My experience with HA is tremendous. My nails are no longer striated. My face has filled out I guess must be renewed collagen. Alfred recommended Ultimate HA which I've just started trying. I've been using Natures Way and it has the exact same ingredients, 'cept Ultimate has quercetin, lecitin and inositol. Perhaps you shd check the ingredients.

To Val and Deirdre:

No dreams BUT Very tired.. did not think too much about being tired during the day.. Figured I was getting along in years & that is part of getting older.

Deirdre.. THANKS for waking me up. Today I will stop. taking HA and see IF I am not tired anymore.. I feel like sh-- ALL day just dead..Night time cannot sleep until 3 am..The HA has helped me a lot. Repaired my bones. New hair growth on my head, face almost clean of barnicles ,hair turning slowly back to black color from white. Wrinkles disappearing.. BUT to walk around all day as a Zombe. Tired, dead feeling.. It would be nice to be alive again. I will get back to you after a week or so.

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.

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?

WARNING!

Editor's Choice

I was very excited to try the Hyaluronic Acid product that Alfred has been talking about (thanks, Alfred) and started it about 10 days ago. Unfortunately, this product is not for me. I had to stop taking it after a week due to severe side effects from just 1 capsule a day! I can't imagine what taking the recommended 3 pills a day would do.

This product (the Ultimate H.A. from P. Products) acts like a sedative in my body. I don't know if it is the Hyaluronic Acid or another ingredient in the capsule, but 30 minutes after taking 1 capsule, I felt a pressure just above my forehead and then the intense urge to sleep set in. I made 2 driving mistakes the first day I took it, I was so out of it. Luckily no accident, only a very close call.

Not only did I feel totally exhausted, I also looked tired. People kept asking me if I was okay, did I just wake up, I didn't look right, etc. etc.. I also had extremely weird and disturbing dreams when I took this product. To me that's usually a loud and clear message that my body doesn't like a supplement! At any rate, I kept up the HA (just 1 pill/day) for 7 days, hoping that the side effects would abate. They didn't, not a bit...

I might try another brand of Hyaluronic Acid in the future to see if the same thing happens. Incidentally, I have a few other friends testing the same product (all taking 3 capsules a day) and none are experiencing the exhaustion. The only common side effect is the vivid, weird dreams.

Just be careful if you are trying out this product for the first time. Chances are you'll be fine, but if you feel tired all of a sudden, be careful on the road!!

My 4 month HA update...

Crazy took us 30 or 40 yrs to get into the condition were we are.We can not wait a few months, maybe a year to have some changes.. I guess thats what they call the Impatience of Youth.. We are young at heart.

the HA stuff work pretty fast if you have the correct mix, so it gets easily absorbed into the body.

I have been listening to my body.. What happening,or what do I feel that I did not have before. Seems like something running around repairing what has worn out on the inside.. My left knee feels new again.. no hurts their. I was having problem with my my hips.. thought I would need a hip replacement.. For about 5 days a lot of pain in my hip areas, both hips. I would push down, it hurt.. I guess it was the Putty that HA has.. maybe pushing it in were the hip were worn. Now 1 month latter. NO hip problem.. Everything working normal.. So I guess the putty from the HA is doing its thing.. No more worry about Hips replacements. The hair on my head still growing, but not fast enough for me. So I shaved my head hopeing it would stimulate new growth faster..It did not seem to help..but it will take a year to have thick hair the way I want it on Top of my head. Hair coming in original color Black.. Hair on my arms still growing...

now an intesting thing my face show a lot of Barnicles of ageing. That why I had a full Beard which is white color.. To cover that mess on my face, men lucky we can do that.. I shaved my cheek area 10 days ago. My face almost clear of all that Black markings.. watch it daily and every day getting lighter in color.. In two week more my face will look new again.. I am getting comments from people about my face.. Makes me happy.. My beard still white but Mustache is Salt & pepper.. black hair replacing the white hair. 85% gone liver spots on back of my hands..

I am taking 4 pills per day which is about 134mg of HA.
thanks for your time

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!

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!

EC: Hi Lisa, you can find the brand name in Alfred's post on our Supplement Favorites page here: https://www.earthclinic.com/supplements/favorites.html#ALFRED

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 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

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 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?

Lee, sorry your pill not working.. the one I am getting from Purity Products is Ultimate Ha.. If you take 3 pills each day they equal 100mg.. You can take more up to 200 per day.. but at the start Please stay with 100mg. The pill your now taking.. how long does it take to dissolve in water. If it over 25 or 30 min, it's not helping you any.

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.

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

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.

I am a person who suffers with severe spinal canal stenosis with 3 ruptured discs one of which is a bi-lateral rupture & would therefore be very interested in trying the hyaluronic acid. I have located a company in Australia who sells the HA for cosmetics use in a powder form. Would this be the same? Is there anyway of testing the powder. Help please
