Halo Beauty Breakdown: Why Hair, Nail, & Skin Supplements are Scams

Описание: It's vegan, it's pretty, but it's still garbage. My (non-expert) analysis of the ingredients in Halo Beauty by Tati and why I would never buy these bogus hair, nail, and skin supplements (especially if they contain high amounts of biotin, like Halo Beauty does).

0:00 - Intro & Disclaimer
2:51 - Vitamin C, D, B1, B2, B6, Zinc, Copper, & Manganese

14:06 - Grape Seed Extract
14:48 - Pumpkin Seed Extract
15:29 - Ceramide
22:35 - Horsetail
22:54 - Astaxanthin
24:35 - Glutathione
24:57 - Alpha Lipoic Acid
25:27 - Biotin
26:06 - "So that's it!" but of course it's not
27:01 - Skin care routine (from the experts)
27:40 - I'm not (necessarily) criticizing the research
29:08 - Supplement vs drug is a bogus distinction
30:08 - Biotin, again (why you shouldn't take high doses)
31:39 - Tati's response to criticism

Ceramide & atherosclerosis

Dietary ceramides at 1% increase atherosclerotic lesions in mice: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science...

It may be related to the mechanism that causes apoptosis in endothelial cells: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...

But whatever the mechanism, the predictive association is clear, and points to a causal mechanism that promotes the formation of lesions and plaques.
