The Cystiphane Fort is a dietary supplement based on L-cysteine of plant origin, vitamin B6, arginine and zinc, in a pack of 120 tablets.
It is aimed at adults who want to cover their intake of these nutrients, related to hair and nails, through a dietary supplement, as a supplement to a balanced diet.
The vitamin B6 contributes to the normal synthesis of cysteine, an amino acid that is a structural component of keratin, the protein from which hair and nail are mainly composed. The zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and nails, as well as to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. These are the two health claims with an approved basis in the composition.
The L-cysteine is an amino acid that is a structural component of keratin. The arginine is also an amino acid that participates in various metabolic processes of the organism. Neither of the two currently has an approved health claim from the EFSA, so they are presented here as components of the composition, without a claim of a specific effect on hair or nail.
It suits adults who want to cover their needs for these nutrients, as part of a comprehensive hair and nail care approach, especially in periods of seasonal change or increased stress, where overall body care often becomes more important. It does not replace medical evaluation in cases of severe or unusual hair loss.
Main ingredients per daily dose (4 tablets): L-cysteine 2000mg (the highest concentration of L-cysteine per daily dose available in the category, according to brand data), vitamin B6, arginine, zinc. The full list of excipients is not listed on the current product page, we refer to the packaging for the complete label.
Hair and nails are mainly built from keratin, a protein rich in sulfur amino acids like cysteine. Adequate intake of nutrients through diet is considered an important factor for the general condition of hair and nails, along with other factors such as genetic predisposition and seasonal changes. A dietary supplement can work complementary to this overall picture.
