Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) has numerous biological functions. Foremost, it is essential for the synthesis of collagen and glycosaminoglycans which are the building materials of all connective tissues, such as skin, blood vessels, tendons, joint cartilage and bone. Vitamin C is the required coenzyme for two groups of enzymes that catalyze the crosslinking of collagen fibers. Vitamin C is essential for normal wound healing and capillary health.
Vitamin C is among the most powerful antioxidants in humans and animals. It is a water-soluble, chain-breaking antioxidant that reacts directly with superoxide, hydroxyl radicals, and singlet oxygen. Vitamin A (retinol) is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for vision, growth, reproduction, cell division, and the integrity of the immune system.
Minerals play a variety of essential roles throughout the body. Calcium is the principal mineral constituent of bone and is thus essential for healthy bone structure and function. Calcium also participates fundamentally in blood clotting, nerve conduction, and muscle contraction. Magnesium is involved in energy metabolism, and is notably important in the heart, skeletal muscles, and nervous system.
Manganese is essential for antioxidant systems in the body, bone growth, fat metabolism, and protein, nucleic acid, and cartilage synthesis. Zinc is important for growth, immune system function, protein synthesis, antioxidant mechanisms, and wound healing.

Good product, especially for hair
by JOYCE -
I've definitely noticed a difference in my hair. Skin and nails, not so much.

Great product!
by Natalie -
My hair was falling out like crazy and this product really seems to help. It went from handfuls every time I washed my hair to just a few stands. Thank goodness!

I’ve used this supplement for several years and it is the only product I’ve found that keeps my nails from splitting.
by Marie
Recently it was unavailable and I went rapidly back to fragile, breakable nails. I’m happy to see it back in stock.
