Care from the inside for beautiful skin, strong hair and strong nails - new: with natural acacia fiber
To keep skin, hair and nails strong, healthy and beautiful, they need certain nutrients. Biotin (vitamin B7) is one of them. It is also known as the hair vitamin or vitamin H. This vitamin contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and skin. The biotin in Uni-medica's Biotin Plus tablets is optimally supplemented with zinc and selenium. Zinc and selenium also support the maintenance of normal skin, hair and nails. Furthermore, natural acacia fiber is used for the tablets.
Biotin Plus tablets from Unimedica contain 10 mg biotin (vitamin B7) per capsule. This corresponds to 20,000 % of the recommended daily dose for healthy adults. The very high dosage can be helpful as a cure if the body has previously been supplied with too little biotin for a long time, even unnoticed.
When the hair calls for help
Brittle nails, hair loss and excessively dry skin can be an indication of a lack of biotin if other causes have been medically ruled out. Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin and therefore cannot be stored in the body. It should therefore be part of the daily diet.
How biotin, zinc and selenium work together
As part of the vitamin B complex, biotin is involved in numerous metabolic processes, e.g. energy metabolism and the metabolism of macronutrients. Selenium is an essential trace element and important for normal thyroid function. Selenium and zinc support the immune system and protect the cells from oxidative stress.
It is known that hormones produced in the thyroid gland can play a role in excessive hair loss. The cells of the skin, hair and nails also need to be supplied with energy and nutrients for normal appearance and growth of the tissue. Waste products of metabolic processes such as aggressive oxygen molecules can in turn affect the normal condition of skin, hair and nails. It is therefore important to support the body's defenses with zinc and selenium. All three substances work hand in hand to ensure that skin, hair and nails function normally and look beautiful.
