Hair & Nail Benefit

Hair & Nail Benefit for Thicker Hair and Stronger Nails

Hair & Nail Benefit is your best weapon against thinning hair, brittle nails and signs of aging in skin. With high-quality, concentrated doses of choline, silicon and biotin, it helps to naturally nourish your body’s beauty proteins. This incredible blend supports collagen production, which:

• Reduces fine lines and wrinkles*
• Thickens and strengthens hair*
• strengthens nails*
• Supports healthy bones*
• Promotes formation of connective tissue for healthy joints*

Hair loss or thinning, brittle nails and skin damage show up for a number of reasons, including:

• Toxicity from heavy metals or environmental chemicals 
• Genetics, family history
• Nutritional deficiencies
• Hormonal changes
• Sun exposure
• Medications
• Hypothyroid
• Infections
• Allergies

Some of these causes are under control, some less so (like heredity). While a symptom like hair loss or brittle nails can be a sign of deeper health issues that should be investigated by a healthcare professional, Hair & Nail Benefit can provide symptomatic support while the underlying cause is being identified and addressed. Plus, it’s great for just about anyone who wants thicker, more luscious hair, strong nails and smoother, softer skin!

How to take Hair & Nail Benefit

We recommend taking one capsule in the morning and one at night, with or without food.

Ingredient Highlights

Silicon and Choline as Choline-Stabilized Orthosilicic Acid ch-OSA)
Silicon is necessary for the formation of collagen for bones, connective tissue, healthy nails, skin, and hair. It also plays a number of important roles in the body:

• Necessary for calcium absorption for bone formation
• Crucial to maintain flexible arteries
• Helps to prevent cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis
• Supports the immune system

Silicon levels decrease with aging. A seven-year study in French women showed that higher silicon intakes appeared to be protective against Alzheimer’s disease.

Choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid (ch-OSA) is a bioavailable form of silicon which has been found to increase the concentration of certain proteins in the skin, resulting in smoother skin, stronger nails and healthier hair.

Choline (as choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid)
Choline is an essential nutrient involved in many physiological processes, including:

• Normal metabolism and transport of lipids
• Methylation reactions for detoxification
• Neurotransmitter synthesis

We need choline to maintain strong cell membranes. Likewise, Hair & Nail Benefit’s unique formula uses choline to stabilize the silicon it contains, which on its own is highly unstable. By combining silicon and choline in this way, the silicon becomes more bioavailable.

Biotin
Biotin is a nutrient involved in:

• Cell growth
• Fatty acid production
• Metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins
• Utilization of other B-Complex vitamins

Sufficient biotin is required for healthy hair and skin, and anecdotal evidence suggests that biotin supplementation supports healthy hair growth and nail strength. Biotin has been shown in studies to improve nail thickness and hardness.

Clinical Studies
Effect of oral intake of choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid on skin, nails and hair in women with photodamaged skin.

• 20-week randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 50 women with photo-damaged facial skin
• Oral intake of 10 mg/d silicon as ch-OSA
• Results, compared to placebo: 
• Significantly improved skin elasticity 
• 19% reduction in roughness (smoother)
• 30% reduction in micro-wrinkle depth 
• The women’s hair and nails also showed significant improvement in strength 

Effect of oral intake of choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid on hair tensile strength and morphology in women with fine hair.

• 9-month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with 48 healthy women with fine hair (average age 43.3 years)
• Results: The women who took 10 mg/d silicon as ch-OSA for nine months improve hair strength and resulted in thicker hair 

Choline-stabilized orthosilicic acid supplementation as an adjunct to calcium/vitamin D3 stimulates markers of bone formation in osteopenic females: a randomized, placebo-controlled trial.

• 12-month clinical trial conducted at St. Thomas’ Hospital in London
• Women already taking 1000 mg of calcium and 800 IU of vitamin D added ch-OSA
• Results: 2% increase in thighbone mineral density as a result of an increase in actual bone formation, not just a decrease in loss.
