Long an ingredient in topical products, keratin has become the latest breakthrough nutrient in supplements for hair, skin, and nail health.
Keratin is a protein in our bodies that supports the structure of skin, nails, and hair, but a poor diet or simply getting older leads to lower levels. The result can be dry and wrinkled skin, brittle nails, and more fragile or thinning hair. Keratin has been an ingredient in hair products for many years, and more recently it became available in supplements to boost levels—and beauty—from within.
THE BREAKTHROUGH
