Metatrition Hair Skin & Nails, 60 Count

These worked where others I have purchased have not.

I did not notice a change, to be honest. However after thinking about it, my hair is highlighted (chemically treated) and when the style treatment plus a hairdryer to style daily is used, how are we to impact real change? By our chosen actions for hair styling and hair color, we damage our hair. I get manicures and those products hurt my nails. So long as I keep that up, I cannot tell if this supplement is working. I also realized that if you are taking a multivitamin and add this you may be taking too much, so it seems safest to use this alone and only if you have natural nails and natural colored hair and don't use hair product or a hair dryer to style. Rating 3 stars = It's Okay.

I study supplementation and believe in taking vitamins for added nutrition. Metratrition Hair Skin and Nails is meant to fill in the gaps of nutrition for stronger support of skin, hair, and nails. It is features Cynatine, Stinging nettle, and Silica as the main ingredients. I have been taking the serving size of 2 capsules per day. This will last one month at this rate. I have not experienced any notable difference during the half of month that I have taken the vitamin. I will usually see a marked difference in my health after taking a supplement for two weeks. However, some supplements can take months to see improvement. I feel it adds nutrition but I have used potent formulas that have made a marked improvement and I have not seen it with this formula. There is very little biotin at 50% RDA and some of the other ingredients are also less potent. This is somewhat good for those who take additional supplementation but it still pushes the RDA when other supplements are taken and I prefer to stay with recommend daily allowances. What makes this vitamin unique is that it has silica, stinging nettle, and Cynatine. These three ingredients are well known and researched for skin health, bone health, and hair health. Many if not all of the rest of the ingredients can be found in a daily multi-vitamin. I personally find that I would prefer to take a stronger extract of Stinging nettle, Silica, and Cynatine alongside a regular multivitamin. I would like to be able to take my multi-vitamin without going over my RDA in any vitamins. Though B3 and B6 are soluble and Biotin can be taken in a higher dose I am leary about zinc and copper. I have not really felt a difference in it my health or seen a difference in my skin and hair. I will continue to take the supplement and see what time will say.

I have been curious to try different supplements to strengthen my nails. Not because I wasn't happy with what I was using but I couldn't help wonder if there might not be something better.I chose Metatrition because the brand was recommended to me by a friend. I don't typically get hung up on brand names but I am not above taking recommendations from someone I know.In the end, I eventually went back to Hair, Skin & Nails from Nature's Bounty. For a fraction of the cost, I can use a product that is just as effective as any other I have tried, if not better. In the case of Metatrition, I won't say that it is worse but it is not better. I'll stick with what I know works and is cost effective. Why pay more?

These pills are easy to swallow and digest without causing any aftertaste or stomach upset. After taking them for several weeks, I may notice a bit of improvement but in all honesty there is not a day-and-night difference. Probably would make a difference for someone who has either some nutritional deficits or who has some issues with their nails. It may also take longer than I've given it to see a difference in the hair since it grows relatively slowly.

I haven’t noticed improvements in my nails; they still break easily. Perhaps it takes more than a month.Most of the ingredients seem to be well thought out. Be cautious with the minerals zinc and copper. You may be getting more than desired if you are taking other supplements. Add them together and if are getting much more than the recommended daily amount, check with a doctor or nutritionist. Large amounts of single minerals may create an imbalance or even have a toxic effect.I did not notice any negative effects from this supplement.

I didn't notice a difference while taking these supplements. There might be a subtle difference, but not one that was apparent. I have really thin nails, and I am also hypothyroid. This effects my nails and hair. This also may be why I didn't notice a difference while others did. I don't know. These supplements seem to contain beneficial ingredients, especially biotin, that helps the growth of your hair and nails. So, if you think they might help you, give them a try!

The pills are easy to swallow and there is no aftertaste. I had never had a supplement with this form of keratin and thankfully, there was no stomach upset. Whether or not it helped with hair growth or nail growth, it's hard to say. I would say that my hair and nails grew at the same rate they always have. I will admit that my nails hung around longer before breaking this time around. I took 2 per day and I really feel like supplements like this take 60-90 days before a conclusion can be made.
