TOSKANI B-Hidroxin maintains hair and nails in good condition. Made from biotin (Vitamin B8, vitamin H), it is used for preventing and treating biotin deficiency associated with pregnancy, malnutrition, rapid weight loss, stress or seasonal changes.
Deficiency of biotin can cause brittle nails, skin rashes and even hair loss among other disorders.
The metabolic functions of biotin act as a revitalising and fortifying factor in deficient cells, giving strength and improving their appearance.
Biotin is necessary for the effective functioning of enzymes that carry carboxyl units and fix carbon dioxide. It is essential for various metabolic functions, including gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis, fatty acid biosynthesis, metabolism of propionate and catabolism of branched-chain amino acids.
