Sodium Hyaluronate is the sodium salt form of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan found in the extracellular matrix of connective tissues. Due to its excellent water-binding capacity and biocompatibility, it is widely applied in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and nutraceuticals.
Cosmetics & Skincare: Provides deep hydration, enhances skin elasticity, reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
Joint Health: Acts as a natural lubricant in synovial fluid, supporting cartilage health and reducing stiffness.
Medical & Ophthalmic Use: Applied in eye drops, wound healing gels, and surgical aids.

Q: Is sodium hyaluronate the same as hyaluronic acid?
A: They are functionally very similar but not identical. Sodium Hyaluronate is the salt form of Hyaluronic Acid (HA). The key difference is that Sodium Hyaluronate has a smaller molecular size, which allows it to penetrate the skin more deeply and is also more stable, making it the preferred form for many skincare and supplement products.
Q: How is sodium hyaluronate made?
A: It is produced through a controlled biofermentation process. Specific bacterial strains (often Streptococcus zooepidemicus) are cultivated in a nutrient-rich medium where they naturally produce and excrete hyaluronic acid. This is then purified and stabilized into the sodium salt form (Sodium Hyaluronate). This is a modern, sustainable, and consistent method.
Q: Is sodium hyaluronate an active ingredient?
A: Yes, absolutely. It is a highly effective active ingredient. Its primary function is to act as a powerful humectant, meaning it can attract and hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. This makes it exceptionally effective for hydrating the skin from within when taken orally and for plumping and moisturizing the skin when applied topically.
Q: Is sodium hyaluronate natural?
A: The molecule itself is identical to the hyaluronic acid found naturally in the human body. While it can be derived from animal tissues (like rooster combs), the vast majority used in cosmetics and supplements today is bio-fermented, making it a nature-identical ingredient produced in a clean, controlled, and sustainable laboratory environment.
Q: Is sodium hyaluronate vegan?
A: It can be. The critical factor is the source. Sodium Hyaluronate produced via biofermentation from bacterial sources is 100% vegan. Always check with the manufacturer or look for products explicitly labeled “vegan” to be certain, as some older methods may use animal-derived sources.
