#2 PickNature’s Bounty BiotinFalling just short of our top selection is Nature’s Bounty Biotin. This product contains D-biotin which is the naturally occurring, biologically active form of biotin. It does provide the recommended 10,000mcg daily dosage which is the amount cited in clinical studies. However, it does have additional inactive ingredients in its formula that concerned us, such as gelatin, yellow beeswax and titanium dioxide color. It is important to consider that additional ingredients can sometimes greatly affect your results. More importantly, we did not find any reviews on the manufacturer’s website. When we did find some, they were largely negative. Some of the consumers cited getting headaches after taking this product. Despite these negative reviews which reduced its score, our research showed that the D-biotin it does contain is of good quality. Since the company itself has a good track record and most consumers we spoke to were generally satisfied with it, we still consider this to be a solid product. Just remember that it has a few slight disadvantages. If you don’t mind taking a pill containing additional ingredients and potentially suffering side effects from it, then this product could be right for you. |

#3 PickNow Foods BiotinThis product is made by a company called Now Foods, and they are also offering a biotin product. However, there is one very important category in which they fall short – the main active ingredient. This product does not provide the full recommended daily dosage of 10,000mcg which was recommended by the clinical studies. There are also not very many reviews for this product. We did not find any on its website and only found a few on a third party seller. Without consistent positive consumer reviews, purchasing this product might be a bit risky. Our own tests showed that it was a good product, but we all know that supplements don’t always work the same way for everyone. We would recommend choosing a product that offers you the full recommended daily amount of 10,000mcg of pure biotin. Even though Now Foods Biotin does seem to be a good quality supplement, the fact that it does not contain the full recommended daily dosage of biotin as its active ingredient, and relatively few customer reviews knocked it down to the #3 spot. That said, if you don’t mind taking a chance, this product might work for you. |
