Does the marketing hold up?
The label says 4 g of biotin in 4 gummies — but not what those 4 gummies weigh. That weight is the one number that would let anyone check the amount on the front. We did not weigh it ourselves, so this is an open question, not a problem we found.

Evidence and sources
A serving is 4 gummies, and the panel lists 4,000 mg — 4 g — of biotin in that serving. What the panel doesn’t give is the one number needed to check it: what a serving weighs. Gummies of this type usually run somewhere around 2.5 to 3.5 grams each, which would put 4 of them…
