    My advice to you:
    Take 2500 mg of biotin
    Take a once a day vitamin (to make sure your not lacking anything)
    Make sure your getting plenty of protein

    It does take time for Biotin to get into your system. Think how long it takes for your nails to grow completely from the half moon to ends. Be patient and continue to take it. Honestly, I started to notice the benefits on my nails, after about 9 months. I know, I know....BUT what if I hadn't taken it...my nails would still be peeling and splitting. Be patient. My internist told me to take it.

    Get a good blender...I use 2 scoops of 100% whey, then add a pure liquid Protein supplement,. 10 oz's of Water.
    After that you can add anything you like for flavoring....frsh berries, 1/2 bananna, fresh fruit, Peanut Butter....anything. I'm going to experiment with a shot of expresso one of these days.
    I have been doing this for over a year now for breakfast...45 grams of protein, less than 300 calories. It gives me energy and curbs my appetite for the entire day.
    I spoke with my Dr. about this, and he agrees there is nothing I could possibly eat (eggs, etc) that would come close to this.
    Not to mention, you pouch is very small and anything you try to eat is very limited in volume. And, I have already mey 1/2 of my daily protein requirment so getting the balance in for the rest of th day is easy...seeing how I don't eat that much food in any one day anymore. So I don't have to worry about over eating either.
