if anything I take a huge hair pill=multivitamin + biotin and msm to help hair.
i heard that alfalfa was good for hair too. and that Flaxseed oil helps stop junk food cravings.
After everything thats in the multivitamins though, I would be scared to take any additional vitamins lol. because that would be a lot.
I know I should be taking the fish oil/omega vitamins but the thought makes me sick. If someone has actually tried these fish oil gummies PLEASE write a review on them. because I love me some gummies...and if they actually taste good then I'm all for it.

I used to take Biotin... but I found that it did absolutly nothing for my hair..
So well heres a tiny story...
I was taking biotin and it was really doing nothing special for me at all, and I did it faithfully for like 6+ months. Then one day I went and visited my aunt and I knew that like 8-9 months earlier she cut her hair pretty short like right above her shoulders, and when I go have dinner w/ her, her hair is back down to her bra strap. So I asked her what she was taking to make her hair grow so fast and she was telling me that after she had her daughter she had a problem w/ vitamin deficency so back when she was pregnant she took these pre-natal pills, and she just kept taking them after she had her baby cuz she needed the vitamins.
Ok so now I take those pills, I bought them from Mother's Market cuz she told me the exact 1 that she always got there.
Oh and it's important to note that I am not pregnant and I do not take the recomended dose because I am not pregnant. The recomended dose is 4 tablets/day, I only ever take 2/day. I notice a actual difference unlike when I was taking biotin & waiting 4 my hair to grow.
Ok, I'm not sure if you have a Mother's Market near you or another place you may be able to get this at but I'll give as much info as I can.
Ok the Bottle says this stuff:
Brand: KAL (not sure what that stands for)
Says: Vita Mom
Saya: 1,000 mg Folic Acid
Says: Prenatal formula for Pregnant and lactating women
Says: 120 Tablets
The sticker's background is grey, and there is a picture of a woman holding a baby, & the woman is turned (back to you) & the baby is looking @ you. LOL that sounds wierd.
Anywwayz there you go.
I hope this helps

the one i always remember:
multitvitamin tablets - one a day
when needed:
iron tablets (i take a course every so often to boost my iron levels, i was diagnosed as anaemic several years ago)
acidophilus capsules
when i remember:
garlic oil perls (for detoxing my skin and boosting my immune system) these get forgotten a lot because they have to be taken with food.
