LES Labs Hair Health – 60 Capsules

What is biotin and what is it for?

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H, is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin that plays an essential role in numerous bodily functions. It acts as a cofactor in key metabolic reactions, especially in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. This vitamin is fundamental for converting food into usable energy for cells. In addition, biotin is known for its relationship with hair, skin, and nail health, although its benefits go beyond the aesthetic realm.

LES Labs Hair Health is a food supplement that combines biotin with other ingredients such as hydrolyzed keratin, MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), pumpkin seed extract, and bamboo extract. This formula is designed to provide comprehensive nutritional support for hair, skin, and nails, respecting adequate dosages and using high-quality ingredients.

Benefits endorsed by EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has evaluated health claims related to biotin and has approved the following claims, which can be used on food and supplement labels:

• Biotin contributes to normal energy metabolism.
• Biotin contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
• Biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal hair.
• Biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal mucous membranes.
• Biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal skin.

These statements are based on solid scientific evidence and represent the only benefits that can be attributed to biotin according to European regulations. It is important to note that biotin does not prevent hair loss or cure diseases, but rather contributes to maintaining its normal state.

Recommended dosage and forms of consumption

The recommended daily intake of biotin for adults is 30 to 100 micrograms (μg), although some supplements use higher doses within safety limits. LES Labs Hair Health offers an adequate dose in each capsule, designed to supplement the daily diet. It is recommended to take one capsule daily with a glass of water, preferably during a meal to facilitate absorption. The bottle contains 60 capsules, equivalent to a two-month supply.

It is important not to exceed the recommended daily dose indicated on the package. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet. Keep out of reach of small children.

Complementary ingredients: keratin, MSM, pumpkin seed, and bamboo

In addition to biotin, this product incorporates other ingredients that work synergistically:

• Hydrolyzed keratin: protein that constitutes the main structure of hair and nails. Its hydrolysis facilitates the absorption of essential amino acids.
• MSM (methylsulfonylmethane): organic sulfur compound that contributes to the formation of keratin and collagen, important structural proteins.
• Pumpkin seed extract: natural source of antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and zinc, which support hair and skin health.
• Bamboo extract: rich in silica, a mineral involved in collagen synthesis and in the strength of nails and hair.

These ingredients have been selected for their nutritional profile and their compatibility with a balanced diet. No specific therapeutic properties are attributed, but rather they are presented as adjuvants in the maintenance of general health.

Possible side effects and safety

Biotin is generally safe and well-tolerated, even at high doses, as it is a water-soluble vitamin that the body eliminates through urine. Side effects are rare and, if they occur, are usually mild and include digestive discomfort such as nausea or diarrhea. No significant drug interactions have been described, but it is always prudent to inform your doctor about any supplements you are taking.
