This Multivitamin Is Packed With Nutrients To Support Hair, Skin & Nails*

Beauty runs more than skin deep. Proper nutrition plays an important role in everything from skin health to hair growth to nail strength. A nutritious diet sets the tone for the overall health of our organs (skin included), but supplements can also be beneficial. 

But mindbodygreen's ultimate multivitamin+ goes above and beyond in terms of comprehensiveness (14 vitamins, 13 minerals, 6 botanicals) and potency. This gives our formula a leg up on effectively addressing hair, skin, and nail concerns.* 

Case in point: mindbodygreen's president noticed her hair growing much faster two months after starting this supplement, and our creative director, Danielle, noticed way clearer skin.* Many customers have also noted some impressive beauty benefits in their five-star assessments of the supplement.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that's most known for its role in supporting bone health, but your vitamin D levels can also impact your skin. 

Lower vitamin D levels (measured via a blood test) are linked to skin clarity concerns1, and researchers of a randomized controlled trial in the journal Nutrients found that people with lower vitamin D levels also had lower than average skin moisture. 

About 41% of adults in the U.S. have insufficient levels of vitamin D, and supplements are a helpful (if not vital) way to increase circulating vitamin D levels.* 

Biotin (aka vitamin B7) has garnered quite the reputation for being a go-to supplement for hair health. And research shows that not getting enough biotin—although quite rare in the U.S.—may lead to hair shedding, and biotin can provide support.* 

Biotin can also support the scalp's unique microbiome2.* 

mindbodygreen's vice president of scientific affairs, Ashley Jordan Ferira, Ph.D., RDN, previously told us that, "Consumers expect biotin to support hair, skin, and nails3 (aka the beauty trifecta), and their enthusiasm is warranted at the mechanistic level, but the clinical research needs to catch up with this overwhelmingly positive public opinion and broad use."

Ferira also added that she hopes that well-designed clinical trials will be conducted to continue to expand our understanding of biotin's impact on these areas of health. 

Vitamin C's antioxidant capabilities also extend to the skin. 

Vitamin C can help combat oxidative stress in cells—not only protecting cells' overall integrity but also protecting the skin from UV exposure4.* 

Also, a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that higher vitamin C intake is associated with less wrinkled skin5. (Topical vitamin C serums are also a great way to slow signs of skin aging.) 

Vitamin E also has antioxidant abilities and protects cells against the day-to-day stressors that may lead to early signs of aging (such as photodamage from the sun6).* 

Oral (and topical) vitamin E also helps protect the body skin from excess water loss by managing the skin barrier7.

Vitamin A is a well-known topical skin care ingredient (as retinol and retinoids), but it can also do wonders as an oral supplement.

It is an essential nutrient for skin, as it acts as an antioxidant and supports the process through which the skin naturally regenerates.*

 Zinc is an essential trace mineral that delivers widespread antioxidant benefits—for both immune health and skin health.*

Especially for those with an uneven complexion, zinc may help keep the skin blemish-free8.*
