Today we review Superior Labs Biotin. This water soluble B vitamin helps to maintain healthy and strong hair, skin, and nails. This pure supplement contains no magnesium stearate or other preservatives.
Ingredients
Each capsule contains 5000 mg of pure biotin. Clinical research shows that the optimal dose of biotin is 10,000 mg per day. With only half that amount per capsule, this supplement may not be as effective as some of its competitors that have followed scientific guidelines for this type of product.
Dosage
There is contradictory information regarding dosing instructions on this product’s website. While the typed out directions state you should take two capsules per day, the images of the bottle show that the directions that come printed on the label state you should only take one capsule per day. Both agree that this supplement needs to be taken with a meal. While clinical research shows that you should be taking 10,000 mg of Biotin per day, it is unclear what is the proper dosing of this specific supplement.
Possible Side Effects
It is mentioned on the label of the bottle that you should not exceed the recommended dose of this product, but it is unclear what that maximum dose actually is. If you are pregnant, nursing, or take other medications, you should consult with your healthcare physician before adding this product to your daily regimen. Children under the age of 18 should avoid using this supplement.
Price
Each bottle comes with 120 capsules. Depending on the true dosing for this supplement, the will still last at least two months. The purchase price for this bottle is $17.95, which is extremely cheap when compared to other similar capsules. Free shipping is included on online orders over $35. Even with this low price, we found no additional discounts.
Guarantee
This company again has contradictory information, this time in accordance with its refund policy. While they state they have a money back guarantee that allows you to return your product for a full refund, their return policy states something different. In order to be eligible for a refund, you must notify the manufacturer within 7 days from your original purchase date and return the items within 30 days. The products then need to be returned undamaged and unopened. All products being returned not because of a company error will incur a 15% restocking fee. With these stipulations, we are unsure whether or not the company will truly stand behind their 100% money back guarantee.
Conclusion of Our Superior Labs Biotin Review
There are a few things we liked about Superior Labs Biotin. Depending on the correct dosage of this product, if you take two capsules daily, you will reach the clinically recommended amount of 10,000 mg of Biotin per day. Also, the price per bottle for this supplement is rather low.
Unfortunately, we had many concerns in regards to this product. There was a lot of contradicting information available on the manufacturer’s website. It is unclear what is the true dosage of this supplement. By only taking one capsule per day, you will only receive half of the amount of Biotin you truly need. Even the money back guarantee was dispelled by the return policy stating you can only return unopened bottles and that you will be charges a 15% restocking fee. For these reasons, we cannot recommend this supplement to help you grow stronger and healthier hair, skin, and nails.
