What is VITAMIN B-7 (BIOTIN) 10,000 mcg from Pure Nutrition?
Biotin, or vitamin B7, is a water-soluble vitamin that is part of the vitamin B complex - a group of key nutrients needed for healthy metabolic, nervous, digestive and cardiovascular functions.
Biotin acts as a coenzyme in the body, which is necessary for the metabolism of fatty acids, amino acids and glucose. This means that when we eat foods that are sources of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, biotin - also called vitamin B7 - must be present to convert and use these macronutrients.
Biotin is known for its role in maintaining the health of our hair, nails and skin.
Vitamin B7 is usually added to beauty products, although it is believed that it is not well absorbed through the skin.
Health benefits of vitamin B7:
- Maintains healthy hair, skin and nails - Vitamin B7 is needed to maintain healthy skin, hair and nails, so when someone is deficient in vitamin B7, symptoms can manifest in the form of thinning, split ends and brittle hair or dermatitis, which leads to dry, irritated skin. Taking a biotin supplement can help produce the proteins and enzymes needed for hair growth. Biotin is beneficial for hair, as it has been shown to help reduce alopecia (hair loss) in adults and to improve protein synthesis and infrastructure of keratin, which is a protein that builds hair, skin and nails. Other benefits of biotin include helping to protect the skin from acne, fungal infections, rashes and severe dryness and cracking.
- Supports metabolism - Vitamin B7, along with other B vitamins, is needed to convert the food you eat into usable energy that maintains a healthy metabolism. It converts glucose from carbohydrates and sugar sources into usable "fuel", which is the body's preferred source of energy. Helps the body use amino acids from proteins to perform many bodily functions. It activates fatty acids from fatty foods such as oils or animal fats. In the absence of sufficient vitamin B7 in the body, the symptoms of slow metabolism can occur - energy levels, fatigue, weight gain, digestive problems, possible development of diabetes, changes in appetite, bad mood and others.
Other health benefits of taking biotin are:
