Summary
This 3-month study tests two doses of a dietary supplement containing biotin, collagen, keratin, and hyaluronic acid in 40 adults aged 21-50 with self-perceived thinning hair. Participants take either a low or high dose daily, and researchers measure hair thickness and strength using scalp imaging. The goal is to see if the supplement can improve hair growth and reduce shedding.
