delta_girl 931 Posted February 15, 2013 get your B up and your hair will stop falling out. I take liquid B12 complex and love it. I buy it from Puritans pride it is their brand. I just had my levels checked late 10 month post op and they are great. This hasn't worked for me. I get a monthly B12 shot and I take a Multivitamin with Bs every day. I shed like a pine tree.

So you said beta carotene but didnt list how much. Also the Biotin is that 5000 mg or MCG? I can not find anything larger then 5000mcg and that is only 5 mg total. Big I'd like to take the larger doses before anything! If at all possible could you let me know if the bottle says mg or MCG? You rock! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
