Anyone taking Biotin supplements...

[Jodi73 11]

I read on here that they are great for preventing, or helping with Hair loss. I already have thin hair on top, so I am more than a little concerned about it. I bought some the other day, and started taking then. My question is, what dose is recommended? I bought the super potency, 5000 bcg. It seemed more like I was taking one of those fat burner drugs, I was completetly wired up , couldn't sleep, couldn't relax....maybe this is just too high of dose. Of course when I bought it, I thought the more the better, thats the American way, right?!

I just wanted to get a feel for what others are taking....thanks! Jodi:unsure:

Jodi, I have always been a huge believer in supplements. I take a B complex that has the Biotin, a multi, Vitamin E, Omega 3,Calcium. Now that I'm banded, I cannot take the pills so I now I smash them up and throw them in the blender with my Protein shake....I'm thinking it just makes it more healthy

I take Biotin 1000mcg once a day and so far no change in my Hair loss. I am starting to get worried but have no bald spots, just general thinning.
