All thirteen nutrients from the Supplement Facts panel, in the order the panel prints them, with the form used, the amount per serving and what each one is for. Plus the complete Other Ingredients line.
Essential nutrients working together to support healthy skin, hair and nails from within.
The headline figure on this label. 5000 mcg per serving, the amount the marketing quotes and the amount the panel prints.
Printed as 260 mcg of folic acid, which converts to 442 mcg DFE. Folate is what dividing cells run on, and a growing follicle divides without stopping.
2 mg of pyridoxine hydrochloride per serving. Keratin is protein, and protein metabolism is where B6 spends its day.
6 mcg as methylcobalamin, already in the active form. B12 backs red blood cell formation, and red blood cells are the delivery van.
5.2 mg as d-calcium pantothenate. B5 becomes coenzyme A, and coenzyme A is where every energy pathway in a skin cell passes through.
The carrier for all thirteen nutrients. Fruit pectin sets it instead of gelatin and beet root extract colours it, which is what makes it vegetarian.
Real nutrition. Printed amounts.
Governs a great deal of how skin cells mature as they travel to the surface, which is why its prescription relatives dominate dermatology. This is a nutritional amount of the preformed retinyl acetate form. Do not run a second vitamin A supplement alongside it.
The cofactor your own collagen synthesis depends on: the enzymes that stabilise the collagen triple helix will not work without it. It is also a water-soluble antioxidant, which is why a daily top-up beats an occasional large dose.
The D3 form, 400 IU in old money. Vitamin D receptors are present in the hair follicle and the keratinocyte, and low levels are ordinary in anyone who works indoors or lives through a real winter.
The natural-source form. Fat-soluble, so it sits inside the lipid layer of cell membranes and interrupts oxidation there. That is a place a topical antioxidant cannot reach.
The amino acid workhorse. Keratin is an amino acid product, so the route from B6 to hair and nails runs straight through protein handling.
Needed for DNA synthesis and therefore for cell division, and a follicle in its growing phase divides without pause. Speak to your doctor first if you take methotrexate or an anticonvulsant.
Already in the active form, no conversion step required. Supports red blood cell formation and contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. It is the first nutrient to run short on a plant-based diet.
The reason most people pick up a bottle like this. Biotin is a coenzyme in carboxylation reactions and supports the maintenance of normal hair and nails. At 5000 mcg a serving it can affect the results of some laboratory blood tests, so mention it before a blood draw.
Vitamin B5, the backbone of coenzyme A, which every energy-yielding pathway in the body routes through. Nothing glamorous about it and nothing optional either.
Forty micrograms, which the panel itself rounds to zero percent of the daily value. It is on the label, so it is on this page.
A thyroid nutrient, and thyroid function has an obvious effect on hair. Raise it with your doctor if you have a thyroid condition or take levothyroxine.
Involved in wound healing, immune function and normal skin. A quarter of the daily value is a sensible top-up, comfortably below the level at which zinc starts competing with copper.
A sugar alcohol with a role in cell signalling. No daily value has been established, which is what the dagger on the panel means.

Corn Syrup, Water, Pure Cane Sugar, Pectin, Citric Acid, Natural Flavor, Sodium Citrate, Tapioca Starch, Beet Root Extract (color).
Corn syrup and cane sugar make a gummy a gummy and account for the three grams of added sugar. Pectin is the setting agent and the reason this is vegetarian. Beet root extract supplies the colour. Nothing on this line is an active.
Thirteen active nutrients on the Supplement Facts panel, plus nine items on the Other Ingredients line that make up the gummy itself.
Neither. There is no collagen in Gelagen and no gelatin either; the gummy is set with fruit pectin. The formula supports the collagen you make yourself, through its 20 mg of vitamin C.
Three grams of added sugar in a two-gummy serving, alongside ten calories. Corn syrup and pure cane sugar are what turn a nutrient blend into a chewable gummy.
The colour comes from beet root extract and the flavour is listed as natural flavor. Both appear on the Other Ingredients line.
