Frequently Asked Questions About Hair, Skin, And Nails
Q: How does a hair, skin, and nail supplement work?
The correct formula holds the key to success. The formula should not be filled with ingredients that only look good on the label, but rather with ingredients that have been clinically proven to be effective and are backed by scientific research for optimum results. The formula should help protect the skin from the harmful effects of free radicals and factors such as UV radiation while also providing moisture and hydration to all the layers of the skin for a youthful, glowing look. It should also improve the blood supply to the hair, skin, and nails, and strengthen the hair and nails so they are less brittle and likely to break.
Free radicals can cause oxidative cell damage throughout the body, including the skin. Your chosen supplement should contain antioxidants that fight free radicals to minimize damage to the skin. Extended exposure to the sun can cause discoloration and dry skin. Because of this, a successful supplement should include Vitamins A, C, and E that protect the skin from these damages, as well as Collagen and Sodium Hyaluronate for rejuvenating the skin. For hair and nails, Iron and Biotin are important for reducing hair loss and preventing brittleness. For this to happen, proper blood supply which delivers essential nutrients should be supported. Vitamin A as well as Folate help improve blood flow to the hair, skin, and nails.
Whatever the cause, not dealing with hair, skin, and nail issues can have serious physical and emotional repercussions. It’s important to act early on to prevent further deterioration.
Q: Do all hair, skin, and nail formulas work?
The short answer is no, they do not all work. There are many shady companies that just go along with the latest health supplement trends formulating supplements that contain incorrect ingredients with the wrong potency or amounts. Often, they even add unnecessary inactive ingredients or cheap fillers, binders, hormones, artificial colorings and preservatives that can hinder the effects of the active ingredients.
Q: What are important points to look out for?
An effective hair, skin, and nail supplement should contain:
- Hydrolyzed Collagen to rejuvenate the skin and promote elasticity.
- Sodium Hyaluronate to hydrate and moisturize the skin.
- Vitamins A, C, and E which work synergistically to protect the skin from oxidative stress and environmental damage.
- B Vitamins, primarily Biotin and Folate, to combat deficiencies and nourish the hair, skin, and nails.
- Iron and Silica to strengthen brittle hair and nails.
- BioPerine® for increased bioavailability which aids the absorption of the other nutrients for the optimal results.
- No binders, fillers, additives, hormones, preservatives, or artificial ingredients.
- 100% pure and natural with no unnecessary ingredients that might reduce the overall effectiveness of the product.
- The same potencies as found effective in clinical studies.
Q: Are there any known side effects to look out for?
Each product is different, so it is always wise to read the label thoroughly and follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully. Our research analyzed many natural ingredients and products that generally do not present any side effects if used correctly. However, as with any supplement, we recommend consulting with a doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have an existing medical condition, or taking regular medication.
Q: What are the dosage instructions for hair, skin, and nail supplements?
Again, this differs between products. Always read the label thoroughly and follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully, if you exceed the suggested dosage you could pose health risks to yourself. Generally, we found that most products suggest taking 1-2 capsules per day after meals.
Q: How long before I start to see results?
Everybody is different. Results will vary depending on other factors such as your diet, lifestyle choices, and genetic disposition. There are many manufacturers that offer refunds should you not get the results that you are looking for. Such a guarantee shows the manufacturer’s confidence that their products will deliver the desired results.
Q: What should I expect to pay for a good hair, skin, and nail supplement?
The costs of products vary between manufacturers. Unfortunately, many are cheap, useless supplements that have been formulated without any science-based evidence behind them. Some of these companies are selling their products for over $100 per bottle, which is far too expensive. On average, the best supplements we found are selling between the $40-$50 price range. Often, when products appear cheaper, this is indicative of low quality or a low recommended daily serving, which will not bring the results you are looking for. Be aware. Read the labels.
Q: Which hair, skin, and nail supplement is the best one to buy?
As each person’s experience of a product is different, it is difficult to say specifically which one is the best. That said, based on several factors, we did like Approved Science Hair, Skin & Nails. We found that from the 50+ products that we analyzed, Approved Science Hair, Skin & Nails had the best quality of ingredients, potency and strength, consumer feedback, and the manufacturer’s customer service.
