Collagen Peptides

Kim et al. (2018) 

Conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study involving 64 participants who received either a placebo or 1g of low-molecular-weight collagen peptide (LMWCP) daily for 12 weeks. The study found significant improvements in skin hydration, elasticity, and wrinkling in the LMWCP group compared to the placebo group. 

Kim et al. (2022) 

Performed a similar study with 100 participants, showing that oral supplementation of low-molecular-weight collagen peptides significantly improved skin wrinkles, elasticity, hydration, and barrier integrity after 12 weeks. 

Proksch et al. (2014) 

Evaluated the effects of specific bioactive collagen peptides (VERISOL®) in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with 114 women. The study reported a significant reduction in eye wrinkle volume and an increase in procollagen type I and elastin content after 8 weeks of supplementation. 

Lee et al. (2023)

Investigated the effects of collagen peptide NS (CPNS) in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with 100 women. The results indicated significant improvements in skin hydration, elasticity, desquamation, and wrinkling after 12 weeks of CPNS intake. 

 Inoue et al. (2016)

Conducted a study on the ingestion of bioactive collagen hydrolysates, showing significant improvements in facial skin moisture, elasticity, wrinkles, and roughness after 8 weeks of supplementation.

Hyaluronic Acid

Wang et al. (2021) 

Conducted an 8-week randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the effects of oral low molecular weight liquid HA combined with glucosamine and chondroitin on knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients with mild knee pain. The study found significant improvements in pain, stiffness, and physical function in the HA group compared to the placebo group. 

Hsu et al. (2021) 

Performed a 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled study on the effects of daily HA intake (120 mg) on skin conditions in healthy Asian men and women. The results showed significant improvements in wrinkle assessment, skin hydration, and elasticity in the HA group compared to the placebo group. 

Jensen et al. (2015) 

Conducted a 4-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot study to assess the effects of high-molecular-weight HA on chronic pain. The study reported a significant reduction in pain scores and decreased use of pain medication in the HA group.

 

Tashiro et al. (2012)

Investigated the long-term effects of oral polymer HA on knee OA symptoms over a 12-month period. The study found that HA supplementation significantly improved symptoms, particularly in subjects aged 70 years or younger, when combined with quadriceps strengthening exercises. 

These studies collectively suggest that oral HA supplementation may have beneficial effects on joint health, skin hydration, and chronic pain management
