Analysis

Identical in formulation to the larger size, this product offers the same beneficial combination of Biotin and Caprylic Acid for digestive and beauty support. It benefits from the same strong brand reputation and high volume of positive reviews. However, its smaller serving count results in a slightly higher price per serving, making it a less cost-effective option compared to its larger counterpart.

Pros
  • Combines two synergistic ingredients for comprehensive support.
  • Very high number of positive customer reviews.
  • Reputable brand (NOW Foods).
Cons
  • Higher price per serving compared to the 90-serving version of the same product.
  • Dosage of Biotin may not be sufficient for those seeking maximum hair, skin, and nail benefits compared to dedicated high-dose Biotin supplements.
  • The "Weight Loss" claim is weakly supported by these ingredients alone.

Goals
Digestive Health 85.0
Caprylic Acid is a well-known medium-chain fatty acid with antifungal properties, widely used to support a healthy microbial balance in the gut, making it effective for digestive wellness, particularly related to yeast control. Biotin also plays a role in regulating gut flora.
Hair Health 75.0
Biotin is a key ingredient for hair health, and 2000mcg is a good foundational dose, although higher doses (e.g., 5000mcg or 10000mcg) are often used for more pronounced effects.
Skin Health 75.0
Similar to hair, Biotin contributes to healthy skin, and this dose provides supportive benefits for skin integrity and appearance.
