Biotin? I wonder...

I started taking Biotin about 2 mos. ago. I was taking 1000mg a day but Dr. Martin's office recommends 2400mg daily so I am now doing that (starting this week). I have recently been noticing that my stubby nails are growing, actually getting long. They always were on the soft side but they are actually doing pretty good! Could it be the Biotin? Kitty B.

Not sure about the Biotin... But if you are looking for a good nail strengthner.. OPI Nail Envy is great. It makes your nails healthy and strong. Have a Great Weekend Julie

I AGREE!!! OPI Nail Envy is great jus****ch how much you use it. I went to a training recently and spoke with a chemist who explained that nail strengtheners change the structure of nails so use it only until nails are as strong as you need before they become "hard", then switch to another formaldeheyde (sp?) free top coat until the entire length of the nail grows out, then start again. Nails should be flexible and strong. The more you use a strengthener the more brittle your nails will become over time.
