Cystine product is a nutritional supplement that has a dual effect in preserving hair and nails from damage.
It is a combination of cysteine, vitamin B6, zinc, and arginine. It is an effective formula for improving the appearance of weak hair and nails, as this product stimulates hair and nail growth in both men and women.
L-cysteine (a sulfur-containing amino acid) is an essential component of hair (18%), nails (14%) and, to a lesser extent, skin (2 to 4%). L-cysteine is found in the keratin of hair and nails. It accelerates the process of multiplication of cells rich in keratin, and this has a positive effect on stimulating hair and nail growth. Elevated levels of cystine appear, especially in the hair, 4 to 6 weeks after taking the tablets.
Vitamin B6 is a vital factor in the utilization of L-cysteine. It allows the incorporation of L-cysteine into the areas where keratin is formed. A nutritional balance between L-cysteine and vitamin B6 is necessary because vitamin B6 deficiency leads to a decreased rate of L-cysteine incorporation into hair and nails.
Arginine is an amino acid found in high concentrations in active hair follicles. It works synergistically with L-cysteine which complements its effect.
Zinc is also required for keratin formation. Moreover, it inhibits the enzyme responsible for hair loss. The possibility of a much greater effect is given with the presence of vitamin B6.
