BITNER pen against nail biting 3ml
Wean yourself from nail biting, cuticle chewing and thumb sucking step by step in 21 days with Neil Beitner: an effective solution for adults and children. Nail Bitener is a topical, colorless, gloss-free formula that helps overcome the habit of biting nails and cuticles with just one application a day. The product is in the form of a special pen with a brush-shaped tip, which guarantees easy and precise application in the right place. The application protocol is based on the widely accepted rule of 21-day habit change, which is based on the understanding that any bad habit can be unlearned within 21 days. Its active ingredient is Bitrex (denatonium benzoate), the world's most bitter substance that can make even the most stubborn nail biters throw their hands out of their mouths. Discovered in 1958, Bitrex is so potent that one thimbleful of it is enough to turn the water in an Olympic-sized swimming pool bitter. On the other hand, it is completely safe and is approved in the USA and Europe for use in preparations (for cleaning, etc.) that have an appetizing aroma, but are not suitable for human consumption - its strongly bitter taste discourages any attempts at ingestion and causes instant spitting. Young children, who have a strong affinity for the sweet taste, are extremely sensitive to bitter, making Neil Beitner particularly effective in weaning thumb-sucking and nail-biting in children. Features: Immediate visible results Quick and easy application Precise dosing Penetrates into the nail Only once a day No gloss Can be used over nail polish Contains Bitrex - the world's bitterest substance Economical - 3ml is enough for over 21 days of use Bitter , not hot Safe for children over 3 years and adults Ingredients: Isopropyl alcohol, aqua, ethyl lactate, hydroxypropyl cellulose, denatonium benzoate. How to use: Nail Beitner is in the form of a convenient pen that allows you to apply it easily, correctly and quickly. Before first use, you must activate the pen by turning it up and down at least 15 times. Make sure the brush is soaked in solution before using. For biting nails and cuticles: apply the solution to the edge of the nail, the side or the cuticles, once a day and let it dry. The ultra-intense taste of the preparation makes it extremely economical and it is not necessary to apply it to the entire nail. The bitter taste subsides slowly within 24 hours. For thumb sucking: apply a little on the tip of the nail, on the thumb only. We advise you to apply Bitener to both thumbs, this will break the habit! Use the product for at least 21 consecutive days. Package: 3ml FAQs about nail and cuticle biting, thumb sucking and Nail Beitner Is nail biting a temporary habit? Chronic nail biting or onychophagia (Greek for "nail eating") is a relatively common behavior that affects people of all ages. Studies show that 30% of the population bites their nails. The habit of nail biting is more common among teenagers. It is estimated that 28–33% of children between the ages of 7 and 10 and approximately 45% of teenagers bite their nails. After the age of 18, the frequency of this behavior decreases, with its prevalence among people aged 60–69 between 4.5% and 10.7%. Why do we bite our nails and cuticles? The exact etiology of onychophagia is unclear. It is believed to occur due to anxiety, stress, uncertainty, worry, boredom, fatigue, guilt and other reasons. Although people who bite their nails have been observed to have greater anxiety, no relationship has been found between the habit and anxiety. Other authors maintain that onychophagy is a learned behavior from family members, most likely imitative. What are the causes of thumb sucking? The baby sucks his thumb in the womb and continues in the first months and years after birth. Most often, this is an expression of the strong sucking reflex in the smallest, and the behavior has a soothing, lulling, even mitigating feeling of loneliness and pain-relieving effect. Usually by the end of the second year, this habit gradually disappears, and if it continues into the third year and beyond, it means that the child has a problem - probably anxiety, fear of something, lack of attention, love and empathy. Actively maintaining this behavior after the third year gradually turns it into a bad habit, and giving up is difficult and can turn into nail and cuticle biting. Can nail biting be dangerous? Nail biting is an unregulated habit that can range from mild to severe. In most cases, its consequences are purely cosmetic. Hands are involved in forming a first impression and their appearance is important for this, especially since nail biting is often interpreted as bad manners. If the behavior is uncontrolled, it can lead to more serious consequences, with the most common complications being: Painful wounding and bleeding of the nail bed and cuticles (surrounding cuticles). Recurrent chronic paronychia, secondary bacterial infection. Onychomycosis or severe damage to the nail bed causing onycholysis - subungual infection. Gum and teeth problems. When biting the nails and cuticles, pathogenic bacteria can enter the mouth and digestive system and cause serious health problems. What are the usual ways to stop biting nails and cuticles? Aversive (aversion) therapy - a type of therapy in which unwanted behavior is associated with a negative stimulus, causing a strong feeling of dislike or disgust. With sufficient duration and persistence of therapy, the habit is gradually eliminated. Behavioral therapy – here a positive change in habit is sought through action. The focus falls on unwanted human behavior - it is believed to be learned and can be unlearned. Emphasis is placed on the thoughts and feelings that cause behavior and that flow from it. The goal is a deep insight into the nature of the behavior and rooting it out if it is unwanted. What is the role of the Nail Bitener in unlearning unwanted behaviors? Nail Beitner can help unlearn nail and cuticle biting, as well as thumb-sucking, as aversion therapy. Associating the bitter taste with the habit over an extended period of time creates a natural reluctance to maintain the behavior and unlearn it without a sense of compulsion. For this purpose, it is necessary to apply a small amount of the solution along the edge of the nail for a minimum of 21 consecutive days. Why 21 days? The Nail Bitener is based on the 21-Day Habit Change 'Rule', which suggests that any habit can be broken within 21 days. In reality, breaking deeply ingrained habits is a difficult task, and the time it takes to accomplish it may vary from person to person. Therefore, the solution in Neil Beitner is sufficient for a period longer than 21 days. Is it safe? The active ingredient in Nail Beitner is approved for use in the US and Europe. It was originally widely used to render industrial alcohol unpalatable for human consumption. Today, the substance is applied by companies in more than 60 countries around the world to ensure that household, automotive and industrial chemicals do not end up being consumed. Many products we use at home, in the workshop and garage have an attractive aroma and are highly concentrated, making Bitrex an important safeguard against accidental consumption. Can it be used by pregnant and lactating women? Since there are no data on the use of Bitener in pregnant or lactating women, we do not recommend its use by them. How can it be removed? Bitener can only be removed by washing with soap. If the hands are washed with water only, it will remain on the nails. Can I use Bitener® on nail polish? Yes, the product can easily be applied over nail polish. Warnings and additional information: The use of Bitener during pregnancy and breastfeeding is not recommended. It is a local solution. If the product accidentally gets into the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water. In rare cases of irritation (allergy to any of the ingredients), we recommend stopping use. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. If you wear contact lenses, insert your lenses first, then use the Bitener. Please store in a cool, dry place out of the reach of children. Do not use after expiry date. Distributor: "Naturpharma Bulgaria" EOOD, Sofia, 21 Yanko Sofiyski St., Manufacturer: TheOTCLab, Fred. Roeskestraat 115, 1076 EE Amsterdam, The Netherlands
