This unique formula of vitamins with other specific nutrients is probably the most complete and effective dietary supplement for hair, skin, and nails available on the market. See the benefits by taking just one tablet a day. Our Complete Silicon formula is a special combination of the nutrients zinc, biotin, MSM, organic silicon, and vitamin C and has been specifically formulated for the health of skin, hair, and nails. This formula provides in each tablet: - Zinc, which contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and nails. - Biotin, for the normal health of the skin. - Vitamin C, which supports normal collagen formation. - MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), a natural component of sulfur and an essential nutrient required for the production of proteins found in connective tissue. - Silicon, which contributes to the structure and elasticity of connective tissue and plays an important role in bone and cartilage collagen synthesis. The skin is predominantly made up of collagen, which is the most abundant protein in the body. This protein forms the connective tissue fibers of the skin, hair, nails, ligaments, cartilage, muscles, and capillaries. Each hair follicle in the scalp is surrounded by a collagen sheath and is located where blood vessels provide nutrients necessary for normal hair growth. We use natural silicon from bamboo gum, which provides 75% of organic silicon, the most bioavailable form. Although there is no recommended daily dose of silicon, most nutritionists agree that a daily intake in our diet is important. Good dietary sources of silicon are grains such as oats, barley, and rice, but refining processes can remove much of this mineral.
