Ingredients explained
Biotin
Biotin acts as a coenzyme for carboxylase enzymes that help convert carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into energy and support keratin infrastructure in hair, skin, and nails.
Caution: High-dose biotin may interfere with certain lab tests, which could affect results; consider separating from testing and inform your healthcare provider.
Calcium (as dicalcium phosphate)
Calcium contributes to cellular signaling and structure, and in this formula primarily serves as a mineral carrier from dicalcium phosphate.
Caution: Space dosing away from certain medications and minerals because calcium can affect absorption.
Phosphorus (as dicalcium phosphate)
Phosphorus supports energy-related phosphate bonds and cellular structure, and here functions as part of the dicalcium phosphate carrier.
Caution: High phosphorus from multiple sources may be unnecessary for some diets; balance overall mineral intake.
How they work together
Biotin provides the key B-vitamin coenzyme activity for macronutrient metabolism and keratin support, while the dicalcium phosphate supplies small amounts of calcium and phosphorus that contribute to mineral balance but mainly act as the carrier for the capsule.
