Zinc 50mg versus Biotin
I took both along with using a shampoo and conditioner with biotin (I "washed" my hair daily with the conditioner and only used the shampoo once a week). I have extremely fine thin hair and not a lot of it to begin with so this was a major concern for me. I started about a month pre op and had minimal hair loss. You also need to be diligent with your protein and fluids too.

Hmmm...I'm not a vet, but I am a pharmacist. Sometomes zinc is given to stimulate appetite. I don't know how that would work postVSG. I'm just throwing that info out.
