Biotin is a MUST in my surgeons requirements. I take 6,000 micro mg' a day = no shedding.

My doctor didn't mention this but do we need to get their approval to take or can we take it additional? I def need to find out my hair just started growing back thick prior to surgery so def need to find this out, I have some just haven't used it ....

I'm so glad you said that because I decided to get a sew in this weekend because of the shedding...and I will check my other vits to see how much biotin is in them so I can figure out how much more to add

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
