A water-soluble B vitamin contributing to the maintenance of normal hair and skin and normal energy-yielding metabolism.
What it is
Biotin is a B vitamin that acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in processing fats, carbohydrates and amino acids. It is an essential nutrient rather than a cosmetic ingredient.
Why it belongs in our range
Its authorised roles in normal hair and skin explain why biotin appears in our dedicated capsule and collagen combinations. A supplement can help supply the nutrient; a higher amount does not automatically mean a greater effect.
Before a blood test
Biotin supplements can interfere with certain laboratory tests, including some thyroid and cardiac tests. Tell your clinician or laboratory team if you take biotin.
Why we use it
Biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and skin and to normal energy-yielding metabolism. We include it in our Biotin with coconut-derived MCT Oil capsules and in collagen formulas that bring several ingredients together.
- Maintenance of normal hair
- Maintenance of normal skin
- Normal energy metabolism
