A member asked:
Is biofol and biotin is same ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Biotin is a vitamin (one of the b vitamins). Biofol is a product or multiple products, sold by a company, and includes many different ingredients. It is rare for a normal person to be deficient in biotin, so one should be wary of companies trying to promote or sell extra large doses of biotin. One should ask a primary care doctor for individual advice before taking large doses of biotin.
