- Standardized Form
- Solubilized Keratin (e.g., Cynatine HNS)
Keratin is incredibly rich in sulfur-containing amino acids, particularly cysteine. These sulfur atoms form robust disulfide bridges, granting hair and nails their mechanical strength and resistance to breakage. Because native, intact keratin is completely indigestible to humans, clinical dietary supplements utilize solubilized or hydrolyzed keratin to deliver a highly bioavailable amino acid profile tailored specifically to epidermal appendages.
