Giving 4stars because it is at least working great for my nails !
My usually thick hair was thin, fragile and unmanageable.
Within a month my nails strengthened and grew I. strong and healthy.
It took longer, but my hair is thicker and stronger.
very impressed.
Started my husband on them, and he is also enjoying positive results.
I can't really comment on hair or skin. My hair is already pretty thick and I'm always actively working on my skin . But it does have good ingredients (beside biotin) like green tea so I'll take all the help I can get.
The green tea is what you might smell in this very average sized easy to swallow capsule ( what's up with a few comments saying
it's large? It's not) and the caffeine in that might be what agitated one reviewer.
I originally gave it 2 stars because I am continuing to take it. I will update if anything changes.
My nails and skin have no change but I am noticing I have new hair growth and it feels a bit thicker. I am going to continue to take it and see what happens.
The supplement itself is on the larger side and as I get older it's becoming more and more difficult for me to choke back the larger pills, especially gel caps like these because they like to get sticky immediately after you get a mouthful of water. So if larger pills are a problem for you I would say dump the contents of the capsule into some applesauce and mix it up. The bottle gives off a smell when you're getting out your supplement so that can be pretty off-putting as well.
I will update my review if I have any other issues.
I cannot attest to the effectiveness of Biotin itself, although I continue to take it. It may be a placebo effect, but it "seems" like my hair and nails are healthier after I have been taking it consistently for at least two months. I took off one star on my rating due to the additional ingredients in this supplement which are not really necessary from my own research.
It takes time to see effects, of course. But so far, so good.
I am a bit confused by this product. The front label doesn't say anything about biotin. Instead, it boasts that it's for hair, skin & nails, that is vegan. It isn't until you get to the ingredients list on the back that you discover that this is primarily biotin. The other ingredients that make up the "complex" part of the hype don't have much, if anything, to do with hair, skin, or nails so I'm guessing they were just added to differentiate this product from the competitors. I don't think there's anything inherently wrong or dangerous about the added ingredients, I just don't get it.
All that aside, this contains a recommended dose of biotin and a reasonable price. The capsules are a bit long but they go down without a problem.
I believe its the Biotin that is good for your hair, and the Horsetail herbs that your hair grows fast from, so this makes a good combination.
While I was satisfied with the supplement I was using, it had the drawback that it was packed with vitamins. This would not be a bad thing if I wasn’t also taking a multiple vitamin supplement and an eye-care supplement. I was afraid that I was getting too much duplication (even though most of them are water-soluble). Still, when I saw that this brand came with herbs and other natural products, I thought this would be a good thing.
Maybe it is but, still, I’m somewhat confused by the assortment. Now that I have it here I decided to look up what each of the line items does. None of them specifically target hair, nails, or skin (although some do have specific bone benefits). The reason I’m somewhat concerned (not grievously since they are all at low doses) is that, like everything you take, there are pluses and minuses.
For example: large doses of green tea could cause liver damage; horsetail might cause hypoglycemia in diabetics and (since it can act as a diuretic) it could flush potassium from the body; dandelion root can affect how drugs (common ones like Tylenol and Lipitor) are metabolized by the liver; gotu kola is one of those Chinese-medicine herbs that is credited with a million possible uses but I didn’t see the relevant ones listed. It also can negatively impact those who already have liver disease.
Another consideration is that, like most adults, I take prescription medications for various conditions. The more substances I ingest, the greater the possibility of interactions.
My issue is not that I think that, at these levels, they are potentially harmful but rather that I don’t see the logic for including these in the mix and why take products that you neither need nor understand and which, under some conditions, might even do more harm than good.
