Has anyone used Biotin Shampoo? If so, did you see any noticeable changes. I'm losing some hair and I'm already taking Biotin and keeping my Protein up so I thought maybe shampoo would help. :confused2:

How much biotin do you take? I was taking 300 mg a day but have upped it to 1000 mg. My first bottle said 300 mg was the RDA so is my body just filtering out what is over the RDA?

I am also having problems with the fish oil capsule getting stuck once in a while. Has anyone found smaller (round vs oval) EFA pills?

Thanks! :tt1::biggrin:

Hi Carla! I was very worried I would begin to lose my hair with the surgery and because I have it highlighted etc. I went to GNC and picked up their hair, skin & nails formula and I love it. My hair is more soft and healthy than it was when I was a child (pre coloring, perming etc) and I haven't seen a wad of hair in the shower yet. :wink2: My nails have started to grow even faster and stronger than before. It has about 3000mg of Biotin and many other good Vitamins. I take it with my daily Vitamin each morning. Check out GNC online and you can read the label. Hope this helps!!!

How long did it take for your hair to stop falling out after you started taking that? I've upped my Biotin and I think I am already seeing a difference after a few days but it could be my imagination.:thumbup:

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
