Doctors inject hyaluronic acid into joints of the body to reduce swelling. Hyaluronic acid is part of the liquid that covers joints such as knees and elbows. In chicken eggs, Hyaluronic acid is found in the egg white. It is also found in the egg shell and membrane. Although the egg white contains hyaluronic acid, it is easier and more efficient to extract hyaluronic acid from egg shells. After extraction, apply the hyaluronic acid solution to a bruise to speed the healing process. You can also drink the solution to lubricate your joints.
