Applied Nutrition Longer Stronger Hair & Nails Review – Conclusion
Applied Nutrition Longer Stronger Hair & Nails uses a blend of active ingredients which may promote healthy skin, hair, and nails, and we like that the price is not too high. Although, through our research, we stumbled across a negative review from a customer who experienced a severe breakout after the use of the dietary supplement. The manufacturers lack of commitment by not offering a guarantee is also a clear warning to heed, as well as the potential for embryo-toxicity and reproductive toxicity which is defended by the warning being on the manufacturer’s website. All of these negative factors, as well as the long list of food additives mentioned in the Other Ingredients List, leave us regretting that this product should not be recommended at all.
