Lack of vitamins in the diet is one of the factors that contribute to
hair loss. This can be attributed to two things. One is that there are vitamins in the diet but they don’t reach
the hair. The second reason is that there are insufficient vitamins in the diet.
Nioxin looks at both these causes of hair loss and has produced products which address
each. Having vitamins which do not reach the hair is handled by the nioxin cleansing, scalp therapy and scalp
treatment systems.
These products are often mistaken as hair products but are in fact skin care products. They are
meant to clean and nourish the scalp promoting reduction of hair loss.
Insufficient vitamins in the diet is handled by nioxin hair vitamins which come as
supplements consumed to boost vitamin content in the blood.
These supplements also help in nail development and overall skin care. They are
in capsule form and mostly bought in monthly doses of 30 capsules.
These include the following.

hormone helping in the growth of epithelial cells. Epithelial cells are found on the skin and this
vitamin helps in keeping it youthful.
