Biotin (Vitamin B7) – Medical and Aesthetic Benefits
​
What is Biotin?
Biotin, also known as Vitamin B7 or Vitamin H, plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and enhancing beauty. This water-soluble vitamin is essential for several bodily functions, including the metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates.
Unlike some vitamins, the body does not store biotin, so it must be obtained from diet, supplements, or injections. Gut bacteria also assist in producing small amounts of biotin.
A balanced diet is key to maintaining optimal biotin levels, but supplementation may be beneficial in cases of deficiency or for aesthetic enhancement.
Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any new supplements.
