Around that, we add a pharmacist’s high-level view of the product as a whole — what’s inside, the evidence for its stated use, how transparent the label is, and what safety data exists — so you can see the full picture in one place. It’s educational information from our licensed clinical databases and the clinical staff at HelloPharmacist — not medical advice — and we don’t sell or endorse products. Our editorial policy

HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Hyaluronic Acid by DaVinci Laboratories
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This capsule contains 3 active ingredients. Sunflower lecithin is a phospholipid derived from sunflower seeds that may play a role in cell health.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring compound found in the body that helps hold water in skin and joints. Chia powder—the ground seeds of Salvia hispanica—is a nutrient-dense food ingredient rich in fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
The capsule also contains microcrystalline cellulose, cellulose, and leucine as inactive ingredients to hold the formula together and aid absorption.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence for this product is mixed. Hyaluronic acid is possibly effective for dry eye and venous leg ulcers (wounds on the legs caused by poor circulation).
For aging skin and allergic rhinitis (hay fever), the evidence isn't strong enough to say one way or the other. Sunflower lecithin has not been shown to work for cognitive decline or Alzheimer's disease.
Chia appears possibly ineffective for high cholesterol and weight loss, though more research may be needed. Overall, the strongest support sits with hyaluronic acid for eye dryness and leg ulcers.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
All three ingredients are generally well tolerated when taken by mouth. Sunflower lecithin is likely safe in food and supplement amounts; the most common side effects are abdominal pain, diarrhea, fullness, and nausea.
If you have an egg or soy allergy, lecithin can trigger allergic skin reactions. Hyaluronic acid appears well tolerated orally, though long-term safety from supplements hasn't been fully studied—the data recommends checking with your doctor before taking it as an oral supplement.
Chia is eaten widely as food and usually well tolerated; common side effects are flatulence and soft stools. Rarely, chia can cause anaphylaxis in sensitive individuals.
All three ingredients are likely safe in pregnancy and lactation, though hyaluronic acid and chia have minimal safety data on file.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check in this product. That said, it's always smart to double-check your own medications with your pharmacist before you start a new supplement.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
This product may be worth considering if you're looking for hyaluronic acid for dry eye or leg ulcers, since there's some evidence it helps with those. If you take any prescription medications, run them through the checker on this page or ask your pharmacist before starting—even though no interactions are documented, it's good practice.
Talk with your doctor first if you have an egg or soy allergy, or if you're thinking about using this long-term.
