Natursyn™

Natursyn™ is a patented formula of different components: fatty acids, phytosterols, lignans and antioxidants, obtained from different oils and plant extracts, which act synergistically helping to prevent hair loss caused by different factors. The fatty acids present in Natursyn™ oil come from the seeds of flax, wheat germ, borage and saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), the latter being the main active ingredient.
Extracts from pine bark and rye flowers complete this formula.
In a clinical evaluation, a daily intake of 600 mg of NaturSYN™ Beaulixir was administered for 6 months and as a result a reduction in hair loss and improvement in hair quality and appearance were observed.
Concretely:

  • 93% saw an overall reduction in hair loss
  • 88% experienced reduced oily hair
  • 83% reported thicker, fuller hair
  • 90% felt their hair stronger and have noticed a better styling effect

On the other hand, it was also observed:

  • 89% noticed an improvement in nail strength
  • 72% saw an increase in skin smoothness and a reduction in oily skin.

In general, women with a tendency to oily hair:

  • Reduction of sebum in the hair follicle
  • Improved oxygenation due to reduction of blocked fat in the hair follicle
  • Reduction of hair heaviness

In hair loss:

  • Re-densification of affected areas
  • Improved hair thickness with consequent improvement in volume and density
  • Visible improvement in hair density and quantity
  • The most hydrated and shiny hair

Zinc

Zinc is a very important trace mineral that is part of a large number of enzymes and other metabolites, distributed in all organs, fluids and secretions of the human body. Zinc is present in many foods.
The richest source of zinc is oysters.
They are followed by meat, fish, seafood, as well as zinc-fortified breakfast cereals.
To a lesser extent, it is contained in beans, nuts, whole grains, eggs and dairy products. Among its functions, zinc contributes:

  • to the maintenance of hair in normal conditions.
  • to the maintenance of nails in normal conditions.
  • to the maintenance of the skin in normal conditions.
  • to normal acid-base balance.
  • to normal carbohydrate metabolism.
  • to normal cognitive function.
  • to normal DNA synthesis.
  • to normal fertility and reproduction.
  • to normal macronutrient metabolism.
  • to normal fatty acid metabolism.
  • to normal vitamin A metabolism.
  • to normal protein synthesis.
  • to the maintenance of bones in normal conditions.
  • to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels.
  • to the maintenance of vision under normal conditions.
  • to the normal functioning of the immune system.
  • to the protection of cells against oxidative damage.
  • to the process of cell division.
Vitamin B8 or Biotin

Vitamin B8, also known as biotin or vitamin H, is water-soluble.
There are eight different forms of biotin, but only biotin D is naturally present and possesses full vitamin activity.
Biotin can only be synthesized by bacteria, molds, yeasts, algae, and certain plant species. Biotin contributes:

  • to the maintenance of hair in normal conditions.
  • to the maintenance of the skin in normal conditions.
  • to the maintenance of mucous membranes under normal conditions.
  • to normal energy metabolism.
  • to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
  • to normal macronutrient metabolism.
  • to normal psychological function.
Vitamin B6 or Pyridoxine

Vitamin B6 is a water-soluble vitamin.
There are three natural forms of vitamin B6: pyridoxine, pyridoxamine, and pyridoxal, and all are normally present in food, however, pyridoxine is the most well-known form. Sources of vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) are chicken, beef, especially liver, and pork.
Good sources include fish (salmon, tuna, sardines, grouper, and herring), nuts (walnuts, peanuts), bread, corn, and whole grains.
Vegetables and fruit are generally poor sources of vitamin B6. Among its functions, vitamin B6 contributes:

  • to the normal synthesis of cysteine.
  • to normal energy metabolism.
  • to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
  • to normal homocysteine metabolism.
  • to normal protein and glycogen metabolism.
  • to normal psychological function.
  • to the normal formation of red blood cells.
  • to the normal functioning of the immune system.
  • Helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue.
  • to regulate hormonal activity.

Cysteine is a sulfur amino acid needed to help maintain good hair health.

Vitamin B2 or Riboflavin

Vitamin B2, also called riboflavin, is one of the most widespread water-soluble vitamins. The most important and common dietary sources are milk and dairy products, lean meat, eggs, and leafy greens.
Yeast and liver have the highest concentrations, but they don’t have much relevance in today’s nutrition. Among its functions, vitamin B2 contributes:

  • to the maintenance of the skin in normal conditions.
  • Helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue.
  • to normal energy metabolism.
  • to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
  • to the maintenance of mucous membranes under normal conditions.
  • to the maintenance of red blood cells under normal conditions.
  • to the maintenance of vision under normal conditions.
  • to normal iron metabolism.
  • to the protection of cells against oxidative damage.

Tiredness and fatigue associated with stress can promote hair loss.

Copper

Copper is an essential trace mineral that is present in all tissues of the body.
Various studies carried out in animals and humans have shown that copper is involved in the function of numerous enzymes.
Food sources are oysters, shellfish, whole grains, legumes, nuts, organ meats.
And in lesser quantities it is found in dark leafy vegetables, dried fruit, cocoa, black pepper and yeast. Among its functions, copper contributes:

  • to normal skin pigmentation.
  • to the maintenance of connective tissue under normal conditions.
  • to normal energy metabolism.
  • to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
  • to normal hair pigmentation.
  • to the normal transport of iron in the body.
  • to the normal functioning of the immune system.
  • to the protection of cells against oxidative damage.
Quatrefolic® (Vitamin B9 or Folate or Folic Acid)

Vitamin B9, also called folate, is one of the water-soluble B vitamins.
Its name comes from the word “folia” which means leaf in Latin, due to its natural presence in green leafy vegetables.
Also in beans, wheat germ and yeast.
Other sources include egg yolk, milk and dairy, beetroot, orange juice, and wholemeal bread.
Vitamin B9 is given in different forms: the natural one which is folate and folic acid, which is a synthetic folate compound used in vitamin supplements and fortified foods because it is more stable. Folic acid contributes:

  • to normal psychological function.
  • Helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue.
  • to the growth of maternal tissues during pregnancy.
  • to normal amino acid synthesis.
  • to the normal formation of blood cells.
  • to normal homocysteine metabolism.
  • to the normal functioning of the immune system.
  • to the process of cell division.

Tiredness and fatigue associated with stress can be a causative factor in hair loss.
In food supplements, folate is usually found in the form of folic acid, but different salts such as 5-MTHF (methylfolate) can also be used.
Quatrefolic® glucosamine salt (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF).
The source of folic that is selected is very important.
Dietary supplements containing 5-MTHF may be better than folic acid for some people who have a gene mutation called MTHFR C677T because their bodies can use this form more easily.
This is because the body cannot transform the synthetic folic or folic present in fruits and vegetables into its methylated active form.
That is why our formulas contain Quatrefolic® (5-MTHF).
Quatrefolic® is a fourth-generation folate.
It is a registered trademark of Vitamin B9, (also known as Folate).
It is the glucosamine salt of (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) and is structurally identical to the reduced, active form of folate found in our bodies. It is an innovative dietary ingredient that provides greater stability, improved bioavailability, higher water solubility, and flexibility for multi-ingredient formulations compared to a third-generation 5-MTHF calcium salt. In recent years, more and more evidence has been found of the advantages of reduced folate over folic acid.
The use of reduced folate (particularly reduced and methylated as Quatrefolic®) is the solution since a large part of the world’s population cannot assimilate and metabolize folic acid from foods or food supplements.
Quatrefolic® is manufactured under controlled conditions according to cGMP and since glucosamine does not come from animals or shellfish, Quatrefolic ® is a great choice for vegetarians.
In addition, Quatrefolic® is considered safe and is recognized as GRAS.

Selenium

Selenium is an essential element.
It helps your body make special proteins, called antioxidant enzymes.
These are involved in preventing cell damage. Plant foods, such as vegetables, are the most common food sources. Among the functions, selenium contributes to:

  • to the maintenance of hair in normal conditions.
  • to the maintenance of nails in normal conditions.
  • to normal spermatogenesis.
  • to the normal functioning of the immune system.
  • to normal thyroid function.
  • to the protection of cells against oxidative damage.

Product Description

Nutritional information

Description

What are the causes that can cause hair loss?

  • During menopause and the hormonal drop in estrogen and other hormones can contribute to greater hair loss and to a weaker and more brittle loss.
  • During the aging process because the body’s capacity for cell renewal decreases.
  • During pregnancy due to hormonal imbalance, and because the mother, by nutritionally supplying the growth of the embryo, may suffer deficiencies.
  • Due to nutritional deficits, where vitamin deficiency situations occur.
  • Because of stress, because it puts the body in a situation of inflammation that attacks many tissues.
  • Due to the excessive use of dyes and aggressive products that damage the scalp and cause inflammation of the scalp.

Active capilar plus is a formula that includes many ingredients, vitamins, oils and plant extracts (NaturSYN™ Oil), which synergistically contribute to reducing hair loss

How to take Capillary Plus
