Hair Growth Supplements Common Ingredients

Viviscal supplements contain a vital nutrients and a blend of hair-healthy vitamins.

A few key ingredients are also used in Nutrafol, another brand of over-the-counter neutraceutical that supports overall hair health.

Review the list below for summary explanations that describe many of the key ingredients in Viviscal and Nutrafol.

Biotin: Biotin is an important water-soluble vitamin (B7) that helps break down nutrients such as fats and carbohydrates, which in turn delivers energy for the body. A negative side effect of biotin deficiency is hair loss. Vitamin B7 (biotin) is found naturally in certain foods such as avocados, bananas, cooked eggs, and milk, among other whole foods.
Horsetail: Equisetum is a perennial flowering plant consisting of double stems, and which reproduces from spores (vs seeds). It contains a high silica content and is considered beneficial for reducing hair thinning while fostering hair growth, thicker hair, and improved hair quality.

Marine Complex: Although the concentration and specific origin of collagen may differ, the hair growth formulation for both Nutrafol and Viviscal products contains a marine collagen. Viviscal sources collagen from mollusks. By comparison, Nutrafol sources its marine collagen from fish such as tilapia and sutchi (a type of iridescent shark).
Marine collagen peptides are a blend of essential and non-essential amino acids that are beneficial for nail health and the formation of the hair structure.
Vitamin C: Ascorbic acid (vitamin C), is an antioxidant that helps to protect cells from damage. Vitamin C plays a crucial role in helping the body develop blood vessels, muscle, and collagen in bones.
Zinc: Zinc is an essential trace mineral that supports development, growth, and healing of a body’s immune system.

AminoMar Marine Collagen refers to a proprietary compound of key marine extracts, including Biotin, Vitamin C, Horsetail extract, Iron, Niacin, and Zinc, which contain collagen.

Collagen (amino acids) are the foundation of proteins and a critical component of healthy hair.

Viviscal is a clinically proven solution for people suffering from fine or thinning hair to achieve thicker and fuller hair in as little as three months.

How Viviscal Works

To understand how Viviscal targets hair loss and supports healthier hair regeneration, it’s helpful to learn about the four stages of hair growth: anagen, catagen, telogen, and exogen.

Anagen: The typical, natural cycle starts with the anagen phase, which lasts several years as the hair grows from the follicle.
Catagen: As the growth phase regresses, the follicle receives less nourishment from the bloodstream.
Telogen: In the third resting phase, follicle growth has completely stopped.
Exogen: The final exogen phase refers to a period of shedding when the hair falls out and the next cycle begins.

Viviscal’s hair growth supplements nourish hair to promote existing hair growth. In addition, the supplements contain a proprietary marine protein complex and other key ingredients such as hair vitamins and minerals that have been shown to foster visible results in hair health.
