I have a biotin thread here:

Those not taking lipoic acid may not need biotin in high doses.
But those with lost of taste/smell, may benefit.
The biotin mixed in with lipoic acid is not likely to work, since the lipoic acid will fill the transporter and make the biotin less available.
It is not a critical thing for PNers...but some may benefit from it. The research on biotin is slim compared to other supplements, but it appears at this time to be pretty benign.
I don't get any side effects from mine. I take it at night, before bed.

Mrs D, you said your take Biotin 10 mgs at night. I ordered Biotin as you suggested. I just have one small concern. I looked up Biotin and it says adults should only take 30mcg a day. Do you think its safe to take 10mgs? , seems like its a big diff in dosage.
Btw do you notice a diff in your hair , says its supposed to be good for hair and nails.  |
