Hi there,
Hope this is OK to post since it is health related!
I recently went to pick up some biotin for hair growth. Problem is, I am currently in France and while a lot of products are in English, most are not and the pharmacy staff did not seem to want to speak very much, although she understood when I asked for biotin. The sales woman immediately brought me over a box of their #1 seller, which includes B2, B5, B6, B8, C, E and zinc. I always thought biotin was B7. I also didn't think vitamins had different names in different languages (their abbreviations) but after doing some research, some French websites list B6 as biotin. Does anyone know if I am getting biotin from these vitamins, or something similar?
The product itself is labeled as a hair growth and strengthener, so I'm sure it will do the trick, but I always read so much about biotin that I wanted to be sure I got this too.
Thanks!
