Product Review: Mary Ruth Hair Growth

Formula

The formula is based on Lustriva®, a compound that combines arginine silicate and magnesium biotinate, designed to promote hair density and follicle health. In addition, the product contains a complete supplement of B vitamins, zinc, vitamin D3, chromium picolinate, and other trace elements for comprehensive nutritional support. That said, the complexity and novelty of ingredients such as magnesium biotinate mean that long-term safety and comparative studies remain limited. Some users report that the high biotin content may interfere with laboratory blood tests (altering thyroid, hormone, or troponin panels). Furthermore, as it is a liquid multivitamin with many active ingredients, it carries a risk of nutrient overload for people who already meet or exceed dietary intake, especially if they also take other supplements.

Effects

Many users report observing a reduction in hair loss, increased hair thickness, and improved manageability after a period of time, with some also noting an improvement in skin tone or increased energy levels. However, the intensity of the effect varies: some users report minimal or imperceptible hair growth, likely due to differences in individual absorption, diet, or hormonal status. Another issue noted is that some users experienced breakouts or increased facial or body hair, possibly related to hormonal fluctuations or the influence of biotin.

Use

The recommended dose is 2 tablespoons (30 mL) taken once daily, ideally in the morning. The brand suggests taking it with or without food.
 Because it’s liquid, one must shake before use to ensure uniform distribution of ingredients.
 Some users note minor gastrointestinal sensitivity when starting; easing into usage or pairing with food may help.

Flavor

The product has a peach and mango flavor (or similar fruity flavor) designed to mask the taste of vitamins. Many users find the taste acceptable or pleasant. However, some comment that the vitamin aftertaste is noticeable, especially during the first few days. Because it is flavored, the smell or taste may deter people with sensitive palates or a strong aversion to flavored supplements.

Price

Many users consider the product to be expensive compared to standard multivitamin supplements. Given its liquid format and premium properties, people may wonder whether the benefits justify the recurring expense and whether there are cheaper alternatives. In addition, some believe that frequent sales or discounts are necessary to make repurchasing viable, indicating that the full price can be a burden.
