Biotin is a water-soluble B vitamin that helps the body convert food into energy. It is essential for healthy metabolic, nervous, digestive and cardiovascular functions. Biotin must be present in order to convert and use macronutrients for bodily energy for exercise and for proper psychological functioning. Biotin is one of the B vitamins, also known as vitamin B7. It was once called coenzyme R and vitamin H. H stands for Haar und Haut, which means hair and skin in German. Biotin is soluble in water, which means that the body does not store it. It has many important functions in the body. It is required for the function of several enzymes known as carboxylases. These biotin-containing enzymes are involved in important metabolic pathways such as glucose and fatty acid production. 1. Macroelement exchange Biotin is essential for energy production. For example, several enzymes need it to function properly. These enzymes are involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. They initiate critical steps in the metabolic processes of these nutrients. Biotin plays a role in: Gluconeogenesis: This metabolic pathway allows glucose to be produced from sources other than carbohydrates such as amino acids. Biotin-containing enzymes help initiate this process. Fatty Acid Synthesis: Biotin helps enzymes that activate reactions essential for fatty acid production. Breakdown of amino acids. Biotin-containing enzymes are involved in the metabolism of several important amino acids, including leucine. Biotin helps in energy production. It supports a number of enzymes involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. 2. Brittle nails. Brittle nails are weak and easily break, crack and flake. Biotin can help brittle nails. In a current study, 8 people with brittle nails were given 2.5 mg of biotin per day for 6-15 months. Nail thickness increased by 25% in all 8 participants. The delamination of the nails has also decreased. Biotin strengthens the nails. 3. Hair health. Biotin accelerates hair growth and makes them healthier and stronger. 4. Pregnancy and breastfeeding. Biotin is important during these periods of life, as a biotin deficiency during pregnancy can cause birth defects. However, remember to always check with your doctor before taking supplements during pregnancy and lactation. 6. Skin health. It has been proven that with a lack of biotin, the skin becomes red, flaky, and skin rashes are common. Biotin deficiency can sometimes cause seborrheic dermatitis. The role of biotin in skin health is related to its effect on fat metabolism, which is important for the skin and can be impaired by a lack of biotin. People with biotin deficiency can experience skin problems. 7. Multiple sclerosis Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease. In MS, the protective covering of nerve fibers in the brain, spinal cord, and eyes is damaged or destroyed. This protective membrane is called myelin and biotin is believed to be an important factor in its production. High doses of biotin treat multiple sclerosis, a serious condition that affects the central nervous system. Biotin deficiency can manifest itself in the following symptoms: dry irritated skin brittle hair or hair loss lack of energy or chronic fatigue problems with the gastrointestinal tract muscle aches and pains nerve damage mood changes menstrual cramps tingling in the limbs cognitive impairment Volume: 100 tablets.
