Some of the other ingredients in 1Body's Hair, Skin & Nails supplement that are related to hair growth or biotin production include:
Vitamins B6 and B12 – these vitamins are necessary for the proper function of biotin in the body.
Vitamin C– necessary for collagen production, which helps to keep hair strong.
MSM – MSM has been shown to improve the condition of hair, skin, and nails.
Horsetail Extract – it's not taken literally from a horse's tail, but from the horsetail plant which is part of the fern family. This extract contains silica, which is necessary for the formation of collagen and keratin and strengthens hair and nails. It also promotes circulation which helps maintain healthy hair follicles.
Zinc – a mineral that is essential for the proper functioning of many enzymes in the body, including those that are responsible for hair growth.
1 Body's Hair, Skin & Nails supplement contains 2.5 mg of biotin per serving, which is two capsules. This meets the daily recommended dose for adults. This supplement also provides other beneficial ingredients that work together to promote hair, skin, and nail health.
As with all 1 Body products, both Biotin and Hair, Skin & Nails contains no preservatives, artificial colors, or flavors. The vegetarian capsules are gluten, soy, lactose, and hormone-free – all of the good stuff without junk fillers or compromising ingredients.
