    Biotin

    I bought and have been taking "Nature's Way" Biotin 1000 mcg once daily for my hair specifically... and I am starting to wonder if the ingredients are going to destroy my ketosis.

    It contains:

    (1) Biotin 1,000 mcg (1 mg) 333% of the Daily Value

    Other ingredients: Fructose, Mannitol, Stearic acid, Modified cellulose gum, black cherry flavor, Silica, Magnesium stearate, cellulose

    What do you think??? I take it each morning with my breakfast and all my other supplements.

      FRUCTOSE? Wow, that's a new one!

      Well, I've been taking Walmart's brand of biotin for a couple of years and MAN, does my hair grow like weeds!!! Can't say its thickened it up any, but definitely made it grow fast!

        Do you think I should ditch it and get a different kind?

          Well I would .. can't understand the need to add fructose to it .. but then I don't understand why everything seems to have to have corn syrup either!!

            Oooh it grows faster? TT that is exciting news!! My hair is at such an annoying length and I want it to grow grow grow

            I went to the Vitamin Store and mine has nothing in it but pure biotin. It was only about $6. I'd recommend going there.

              The biotin I take doesn't have any sugars added. I wonder if yours is chewable formulation or something. I think mine are Swiss Natural.
