YAKER Empower Hair Repair Protein Supplement
Like our muscles, hair needs a good daily dose of protein to stay strong. Why? Because 95% of hair is made of amino acids that form keratin, not biotin, which many people mistakenly believe is the key to preventing hair loss. If your body doesn’t get enough protein to produce keratin, your hair can weaken, and even your nails can become brittle.
Keratin is different from the proteins found in food because it is a specialized structural protein that the body produces using amino acids derived from dietary protein. The proteins we consume in food (such as those in meat, eggs, dairy, legumes, etc.) are broken down into amino acids during digestion. These amino acids are then used by the body to create keratin and other proteins needed for various functions.
Empower provides you with the correct daily dose of keratin and includes MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane), a unique and powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory supplement.
How MSM Supports Keratin and Collagen for Healthier Hair
When it comes to growing stronger, healthier hair, MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) is an unsung hero. Known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, MSM does something even more critical—it supplies sulfur, a vital nutrient your body needs to build keratin and collagen.
Let’s break down how it works:
1. MSM Fuels Keratin Production.
Keratin is the protein that gives your hair its structure, strength, and shine—and it’s made up largely of sulfur-containing amino acids. MSM delivers the sulfur your body uses to form disulfide bonds, the structural “glue” that holds keratin together. These bonds are what give your strands their resilience and shape. Without enough sulfur, keratin becomes weak, and hair can turn brittle or start to thin.
2. MSM Helps Boost Collagen Formation.
Collagen isn’t just great for your skin—it’s also a key player in scalp health. Collagen provides the framework that supports hair follicles. Sulfur from MSM helps stabilize collagen’s triple-helix structure, keeping it firm and functional. Strong collagen means a healthier scalp environment, better follicle anchoring, and improved conditions for hair to grow.
3. Fights Inflammation That Hurts Hair Follicles.
Chronic inflammation is one of the most overlooked causes of hair thinning. MSM helps calm inflammatory pathways and reduce oxidative stress around the follicles. That’s important because when inflammation is under control, hair follicles stay healthier, cycle properly, and are less likely to miniaturize or shut down.
Why This Matters
Think of MSM as the raw material your body needs to build better hair from the inside out. By supporting both keratin and collagen, MSM strengthens hair at its core, reduces breakage, and helps maintain a balanced, healthy scalp—essential for long-term hair growth.
