Natural fiber Keratin is a structural protein located at the hard surfaces in many vertebrates. Keratin has two forms, α-keratin and β-keratin and are used by different classes of animals. The naming convention for proteins follows that for keratin, alpha keratin is helical and beta keratin is sheet like. Alpha keratin is found in mammalian hair, skin, nails, horn and quills, while beta keratin can be found in avian and reptilian species in scales, feathers, and beaks. The two different structures of keratin have dissimilar mechanical properties, as seen in their dissimilar applications. The relative alignment of the keratin fibrils has a
Revival Soy milk protein shakes. Research also has suggested that Revival Soy protein shakes might support healthy skin, hair, and nails. A research study conducted by a board-certified dermatologist assigned postmenopausal women (50–65 years of age) with mild to moderate photoaging to drink either one Revival Soy protein shake or to remain on their normal diet for 6 months. After 6 months of dietary soy consumption, improvements were seen in facial wrinkling, discoloration, and overall appearance. Also, improvement was noted in nail roughness, ridging, flaking, splitting, and overall appearance at the end of the intervention period. Improvements in hair health were evident
