Bio-Availability
Natural ingredients make all the difference in a supplement product. Bio-availability is the rate at which your body absorbs nutrients based on their molecular shape and structure. With natural herbs and nutrients like those found in MX Hair, Skin and Nails Factor, you can trust that you are getting the most nutrients for your money and the best absorption, or bio-availability, possible. When you are looking at the different types of vitamins and other minerals to support your health, you need to find the most natural solutions available, which is exactly what we offer here at Maxalife.
Synthetic products and modified compounds are not going to be as effectively absorbed by the body simply for the sheer fact that they are not completely natural. The body is used to getting nutrients in their normal, natural state and when you alter the nutrients they will have less of a chance of being absorbed. That ends up being a waste of money for you because you’re not actually able to enjoy all the benefits of the supplement products that you are using.
Leave it to Nature
At Maxalife, we like to leave things to nature. We simply take the natural vitamins and minerals in our MX Hair, Skin and Nails Factor and other supplements and combine them in the most effective manner possible. We don’t try to modify nature or make improvements because we understand that nature knows best. What good is a natural health solution, after all, if it is not so natural or effective in terms of bio-availability? It just makes sense to let nature do its job and provide you with the nutrients that your body needs in a natural, pure form.
We have the purest, most natural herbs, vitamins and other minerals in our MX Hair, Skin and Nails Factor, designed to be properly absorbed by the body and provide all the benefits that people deserve. You will find no synthetic products in our supplements because we let nature do the work when it comes to helping your health through supplementation.
Pharmaceutical Grade
This is a word that some companies use in an attempt to dupe people into actually thinking that there is something better out there. When you see advertisements or products that claim to be ‘pharmaceutical grade’, you need to beware. There is no such thing in the world of supplements. The best that you can get is a 100% natural, safe and effective supplement product. Marketers who are trying to aggressively corner the industry use words like this to entice people into thinking that they are getting something better than they might get anywhere else. The reality is that their products usually aren’t even the best supplements on the market.
At Maxalife, we are committed to helping people live full, healthy lives and all of our supplements are created with that commitment in mind. We use 100% natural ingredients that are pure and as fresh as possible so that you can get the most from your supplements. We don’t need to give them a fancy label or call them something that they aren’t because we create the safest and most effective supplements and stand behind every single product that we sell.
What about Regulatory Guidelines?
There are regulatory guidelines out there, but they are way too lenient and not nearly high enough to meet our standards. Maxalife is fully focused on raising the standards of quality in the supplement world, and you can trust that you are getting the best products available when you buy from Maxalife. Because of the largely un-monitored and inconsistent guidelines that are set forth by different agencies, we have given ourselves the demand of producing high-quality supplement products that go above and beyond the ‘regulations’ as they currently stand.
At Maxalife, we perform extensive testing to ensure that our supplements are the best that they can be and we keep all of our data on file so that we can keep track of how things are doing. If you every want to see just how serious we are about quality and purity, just ask.

Bioavailability of biotin given orally to humans in pharmacologic doses1,2,3
Janos Zempleni and Donald M Mock
Background: Patients with carboxylase deficiency are treated with pharmacologic doses of biotin.
Objective: We sought to determine the bioavailability of biotin at pharmacologic doses.
Design: Biotin was administered orally (2.1, 8.2, or 81.9 µmol) or intravenously (18.4 µmol) to 6 healthy adults in a crossover design with ?2 wk between each biotin administration. Before and after each administration, timed 24-h urine samples were collected. Urinary biotin and biotin metabolites were analyzed by an HPLC avidin-binding assay.
Results: Urinary recoveries of biotin plus metabolites were similar (?50%) after the 2 largest oral doses and the 1 intravenous dose, suggesting 100% bioavailability of the 2 largest oral doses. For unexplained reasons, the apparent recovery of the smallest oral dose was about twice that of the other doses. For all 4 doses, biotin accounted for >50% of the total of biotin and biotin metabolites in urine. Bisnorbiotin (13–23%), biotin-d,l-sulfoxide (5–13%), bisnorbiotin methyl ketone (3–9%), and biotin sulfone (1–3%) accounted for the remainder. The percentage excretion of biotin was greater when biotin was administered intravenously and for the largest oral dose than for the 2 smallest oral doses.
Conclusion: Our data provide evidence that oral biotin is completely absorbed even when pharmacologic doses are administered. Biotin metabolites account for a substantial portion of total urinary excretion and must be considered in bioavailability studies. We speculate that renal losses of biotin (as a percentage of the dose administered) are moderately elevated when pharmacologic doses of biotin are administered.
Brittle nails: response to daily biotin supplementation.
Hochman LG, Scher RK, Meyerson MS
Department of Dermatology, College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University, New York, New York
Abstract
A recent study from Switzerland demonstrated a 25 percent increase in nail plate thickness in patients with brittle nails who received biotin supplementation. Analysis of all visits to a nail consultation practice over a six-month period revealed forty-four patients with this condition who had been prescribed the B-complex vitamin biotin. Of these, thirty-five who took daily supplementation were subjectively evaluated. Twenty-two of thirty-five (63 percent) showed clinical improvement and thirteen (37 percent) reported no change in their condition. The results of this small, retrospective study suggest a positive response to biotin in the treatment of brittle nails in some patients.
[Treatment of brittle fingernails with biotin]
Floersheim GL
Abstract
Frailty and brittleness of the finger nails is frequently seen, particularly in women. In veterinary medicine, it has been documented that defective hooves of horses or claws of swine respond well to oral application of biotin. Accordingly, we studied the effect of biotin on human dystrophic finger nails, a keratin structure as well. 71 patients were treated with a daily oral dose of biotin of 2.5 mg. Out of the 45 cases which finally could be evaluated, 41 (91%) showed definite improvement with firmer and harder finger nails after an average treatment of 5.5 +/- 2.3 months. In 4 of the 45 patients (9%), the improvement was questionable. None of the patients considered the treatment altogether ineffective. We conclude that biotin in most of the cases provides an effective therapy also for human patients with brittle nails.

Abstract
Twelve kinds of marine protein materials, including fish, shrimp, seashell, algae and seafood wastes were selected for the hydrolysis using four different proteases. The IC50 values for angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity of 48 hydrolysates were rapidly determined by capillary electrophoresis (CE). The values ranged from 0.17 to 501.7 mg/ml, and were affected by both the marine protein resources and the selected proteases. Hydrolysates of the lowest IC50 values were from shrimp (Acetes chinensis), shark meat, mackerel bone, Polysiphonia urceolata and Spirulina platensis, indicating these five kinds of marine food proteins contained beneficial materials for the production of ACE inhibitory peptides by proteolysis. The hydrolysates obtained using proteases Protamex and SM98011 had lower IC50 values, showing these two proteases were superior to others. The CE method achieved the same sensitivity as the high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. However, the CE method was faster and, as a result, more economical. Therefore, CE had potential for rapid screening of marine protein hydrolysates enriched in ACE inhibitory peptides.
Biochemical function of selenium and its relation to vitamin E
Hoekstra WG
Abstract
Glutathione peroxidase (glutathione:H2O2 oxidoreductase, E.C. 1.11.1.9), isolated from ovine and bovine erythrocytes, has recently been shown to contain 4 selenium atoms per mole, an average of 1 Se per protein subunit of about 22,000 molecular weight. Selenium deficiency in the rat, chick and sheep causes dramatic decreases in the activity of this enzyme in the tissues, but certain sites such as liver are affected more than others. Decreases in glutathione peroxidase correlate with lesions caused by selenium deficiency and appear useful in diagnosing selenium deficiency. Glutathione peroxidase is an important enzyme in destroying H2O2 and organic hydroperoxides such as lipid hydroperoxides. It therefore guards against oxidative damage to the cell membranes and other oxidant-sensitive sites in the cell. While this selenium-dependent system destroys lipid hydroperoxides and other peroxides, vitamin E is believed to protect against oxidant damage to membranes by preventing the formation of lipid hydroperoxides. A scheme is proposed, based on oxidant damage and its prevention, which accounts for the interaction between selenium, vitamin E, unsaturated lipids, sulfur-containing amino acids, and cell damaging agents such as oxidant stressors and toxicants such as silver and tri-o-cresyl phosphate. The background for such a scheme is reviewed.
Effects of a Combination of Beta Carotene and Vitamin A on Lung Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease

Meyskens, Jr., M.D., Barbara Valanis, Dr.P.H., James H. Williams, Jr., M.D., Scott Barnhart, M.D., M.P.H., and Samuel Hammar, M.D.
BACKGROUND
Lung cancer and cardiovascular disease are major causes of death in the United States. It has been proposed that carotenoids and retinoids are agents that may prevent these disorders.
METHODS
We conducted a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled primary prevention trial — the Beta-Carotene and Retinol Efficacy Trial — involving a total of 18,314 smokers, former smokers, and workers exposed to asbestos. The effects of a combination of 30 mg of beta carotene per day and 25,000 IU of retinol (vitamin A) in the form of retinyl palmitate per day on the primary end point, the incidence of lung cancer, were compared with those of placebo.
RESULTS
A total of 388 new cases of lung cancer were diagnosed during the 73,135 person-years of follow-up (mean length of follow-up, 4.0 years). The active-treatment group had a relative risk of lung cancer of 1.28 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.04 to 1.57; P = 0.02), as compared with the placebo group. There were no statistically significant differences in the risks of other types of cancer. In the active-treatment group, the relative risk of death from any cause was 1.17 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.03 to 1.33); of death from lung cancer, 1.46 (95 percent confidence interval, 1.07 to 2.00); and of death from cardiovascular disease, 1.26 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.99 to 1.61). On the basis of these findings, the randomized trial was stopped 21 months earlier than planned; follow-up will continue for another 5 years.
CONCLUSIONS
After an average of four years of supplementation, the combination of beta carotene and vitamin A had no benefit and may have had an adverse effect on the incidence of lung cancer and on the risk of death from lung cancer, cardiovascular disease, and any cause in smokers and workers exposed to asbestos.
Lack of Effect of Long-Term Supplementation with Beta Carotene on the Incidence of Malignant Neoplasms and Cardiovascular Disease
Charles H. Hennekens, M.D., Julie E. Buring, Sc.D., JoAnn E. Manson, M.D., Meir Stampfer, M.D., Bernard Rosner, Ph.D., Nancy R. Cook, Sc.D., Charlene Belanger, M.A., Frances LaMotte, B.S., J. Michael Gaziano, M.D., Paul M. Ridker, M.D., Walter Willett, M.D., and Richard Peto, F.R.S.
BACKGROUND
Observational studies suggest that people who consume more fruits and vegetables containing beta carotene have somewhat lower risks of cancer and cardiovascular disease, and earlier basic research suggested plausible mechanisms. Because large randomized trials of long duration were necessary to test this hypothesis directly, we conducted a trial of beta carotene supplementation.
METHODS
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of beta carotene (50 mg on alternate days), we enrolled 22,071 male physicians, 40 to 84 years of age, in the United States; 11 percent were current smokers and 39 percent were former smokers at the beginning of the study in 1982. By December 31, 1995, the scheduled end of the study, fewer than 1 percent had been lost to follow-up, and compliance was 78 percent in the group that received beta carotene.
RESULTS
Among 11,036 physicians randomly assigned to receive beta carotene and 11,035 assigned to receive placebo, there were virtually no early or late differences in the overall incidence of malignant neoplasms or cardiovascular disease, or in overall mortality. In the beta carotene group, 1273 men had any malignant neoplasm (except nonmelanoma skin cancer), as compared with 1293 in the placebo group (relative risk, 0.98; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.91 to 1.06). There were also no significant differences in the number of cases of lung cancer (82 in the beta carotene group vs. 88 in the placebo group); the number of deaths from cancer (386 vs. 380), deaths from any cause (979 vs. 968), or deaths from cardiovascular disease (338 vs. 313); the number of men with myocardial infarction (468 vs. 489); the number with stroke (367 vs. 382); or the number with any one of the previous three end points (967 vs. 972). Among current and former smokers, there were also no significant early or late differences in any of these end points.
CONCLUSIONS
In this trial among healthy men, 12 years of supplementation with beta carotene produced neither benefit nor harm in terms of the incidence of malignant neoplasms, cardiovascular disease, or death from all causes.
beta-Carotene: an unusual type of lipid antioxidant
GW Burton and KU Ingold
ABSTRACT
The mechanism of lipid peroxidation and the manner in which antioxidants function is reviewed. beta-Carotene is a purported anticancer agent, which is believed by some to have antioxidant action of a radical-trapping type. However, definitive experimental support for such action has been lacking. New experiments in vitro show that beta-carotene belongs to a previously unknown class of biological antioxidants. Specifically, it exhibits good radical-trapping antioxidant behavior only at partial pressures of oxygen significantly less than 150 torr, the pressure of oxygen in normal air. Such low oxygen partial pressures are found in most tissues under physiological conditions. At higher oxygen pressures, beta-carotene loses its antioxidant activity and shows an autocatalytic, prooxidant effect, particularly at relatively high concentrations. Similar oxygen-pressure-dependent behavior may be shown by other compounds containing many conjugated double bonds.
