Hyaluronic Acid and what it can do for your animal's joints:
 
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is found naturally in almost every cell in the body and occurs in high concentrations in specific body locations. In each body location, it serves a different function. Unfortunately, HA also has a half-life (the time it takes for the molecule to get broken down and excreted from the body) of less than 3 days. For this reason, it is imperative that the body continually replenish itself with HA.
 
The joints are surrounded by the synovial membrane which forms a capsule around the ends of the two articulating bones. This membrane secretes a liquid called the synovial fluid, a viscous fluid with the consistency of motor oil. It has many functions, but none more important than providing the elastic shock absorption properties to the joint. Its second most important function in the joint is to carry nutrients to the cartilage and remove waste from the joint capsule. Normally these processes are carried out via the blood vessels but because cartilage is without blood flow (avascular) the body relies on the hyaluronic acid to perform this function.
