Biotin<\/h3>\n
Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, is one of the most important ingredients to look for in hair, skin, and nail supplements. It plays a key role in the health of your hair, skin and nails by helping to metabolize fats, carbohydrates and amino acids.<\/p>\n
Getting enough biotin can help strengthen brittle nails, reduce hair loss, improve hair thickness and stimulate hair and nail growth (1<\/a>). The recommended daily intake is 30 micrograms but many supplements provide much higher amounts, often between 1,000-5,000 micrograms.<\/p>\n Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and the building block of skin, hair and nails. Supplements that contain collagen can help improve skin elasticity and hydration which keeps your skin looking plump and youthful.<\/p>\n They also support stronger hair and nails by providing the raw materials needed to generate new collagen. Look for hydrolyzed collagen on the label as this form is broken down for better absorption (2<\/a>).<\/p>\n Keratin is a structural protein that protects epithelial cells from damage and stress. It makes up about 90% of your hair and is also abundant in skin and nails. Consuming more keratin through supplements may improve keratin levels in the body for healthier looking hair, skin and nails.<\/p>\nCollagen<\/h3>\n
