What in the World is Biotin?

Biotin is typically referred to as vitamin H or B7. It’s best described as a cofactor for metabolizing fats and amino acids, maintaining consistent blood sugar levels and helping to process carbon dioxide. Biotin is extremely important for cell growth and the production of fatty acids.

Our bodies’ intestinal bacteria, by and large, produce enough biotin for us to survive. This explains why biotin deficiencies are fairly infrequent and why biotin is often found in most foods at low concentrations. Nevertheless, do not doubt its value and utility.

The amount of naturally occurring biotin in food will vary from season to season; however, the nutrient can often be found in carrots, soybeans, tomatoes, lettuce, almonds, walnuts, cucumber, oats, milk and some fish, such as salmon and halibut.

Biotin isn’t limited to the spectrum of food though. Biotin supplements can be suggested as an alternative means of regenerating hair for both adults and children. Although the skin can have trouble absorbing the nutrient, it is often included in the ingredients of shampoos and other hair and skin products.

There is a rare hereditary disorder known as phenylketonuria, which targets children who are unable to metabolize the amino acid phenylalanine. This condition usually results in skin problems (eczema and/or seborrheic dermatitis).

However, children afflicted with this disorder have often increased the amount of biotin in their diet with some success. The research, being the bright side of this situation, shows that taking biotin in excess has absolutely no negative effects on the human body.
