Every Gelagen Ingredient, One Page Each
Six vitamins and the base that carries them. Each one has a full page here covering what it is, what it does for skin, how strong the evidence actually is, where else you get it, and anything worth raising with a doctor.

The Six Vitamins In A Gelagen Gummy
Plus the pectin base that carries them, which gets a page too.
Why These Six Vitamins
Skin is a manufacturing operation. It replaces its entire surface roughly every four to six weeks, and every one of those replacements is a cell that has to be divided, built, matured and finally pushed to the top. Each of those stages needs different raw materials.
The two that let cells divide
Folate and Vitamin B12. DNA has to be copied before a cell can split, and neither of those copies happens without both of these present. Skin divides more than almost any tissue you have.
The two that build structure and barrier
Biotin carries an authorised role in the maintenance of normal skin and hair. Pantothenic Acid supports the lipids that make up the barrier holding water inside your skin — the same vitamin whose topical form, panthenol, is in half the moisturisers on the shelf.
The two that regulate
Vitamin A decides how skin cells mature as they rise toward the surface, and it is the most studied nutrient in all of skin science. Vitamin B6 sits closest to the hormone and oil side of how skin behaves.
The Honest Line About All Six
Every vitamin on this list has a well established role in building skin. That is different from saying extra amounts improve the skin of somebody whose diet already supplies enough. Correcting a shortfall makes a real difference; topping up a sufficiency mostly does not. Each ingredient page says where it sits on that line rather than blurring it, and four of the seven pages here describe the evidence for supplementation as thin.
Who is most likely to have a shortfall worth correcting? People eating a restricted or low-vegetable diet, vegans and vegetarians for vitamin B12 specifically, people over sixty whose absorption has declined, and anyone recovering from illness. That is a large number of people, and it is not everybody.

Answers
Questions About The Gelagen Ingredients
How many ingredients does Gelagen have?
Six vitamins: vitamin A, vitamin B6, folate, vitamin B12, biotin and pantothenic acid. Plus the pectin gummy base with sugars, citric acid and natural strawberry flavour and colour.
Does Gelagen contain collagen?
No. It is a vitamin formula. The name raises the question constantly, which is why this site answers it on several pages rather than once.
Which ingredient matters most?
Biotin is the one most associated with hair, skin and nails. Vitamin A has the most research behind it in skin science, and is also the one with a genuine upper limit.
Are the amounts printed on the label?
Vitamins with an established reference intake are declared with a percent daily value beside them. The panel on your bottle is the authority.
Where does the information on these pages come from?
The product label, NIH Office of Dietary Supplements fact sheets, FDA safety communications and published research. Sources are listed at the foot of the home page.
