Biotin (vitamin B7) is found in many hair loss supplements. Most people in the US are not biotin deficient. It can be found in dietary sources including meat, eggs, fish, sweet potato and almonds.⁣ ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Biotin supplementation for nails at 2.5mg daily has shown some improvement in nail firmness, hardness and thickness in a clinical study. The hair data, however, is relatively scarce and mainly comes from patients with biotin deficiency. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Should I take more? Taking more than required is not better for hair growth.⁣ IN FACT: more is not helpful ! ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ My skin Is breaking out? ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Excess biotin can trigger breakouts in acne prone individuals. High levels of biotin from supplements can cause abnormal blood tests like troponin (measures injury during a heart attack) and thyroid hormones ( parathyroid hormone, thyroid function tests, brain natriuretic peptide). ⁣ ⁣ If you take any vitamins or supplements, please let your doctor know Hair loss is very stressful and it is not a quick fix. Always make sure to follow the science and see your #boardcertified dermatologist for your care. We can treat you for your hair loss with realistic results. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ 📧: [email protected] 💻: ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Verified #healthylifestyle #antiaging #aesthetics #beauty #beautyblogger #bblogger #beautycare #luxurylifestyle #houshmandhealthyhair #dallas #instabeauty #doctor #medicine #acne #dermatology #skincare #skincaretips #hair #haircare #hairlosssolution #hairlosshelp #hairlossspecialist #hairtreatment #hairstylist #thinhair #hairstyling #hairgoals #hairlossolutions #houshmandmd
Great post!! I do take a multivitamin every day with biotin in it, but it's not at a high dose lol. But this was very informative for a post. I'm not struggling with hair loss, but the multivitamin I take is just for my overall health ❤️❤️ Thank you for the great post!!!!!!!!
