Biotin 8 mg

Supports hair, skin, and nailsMaintains nail strength and thicknessSupports macronutrient metabolismBiotin is a water-soluble B vitamin that promotes healthy hair, skin, and nails. It stimulates epidermal differentiation and promotes the production of keratins. These proteins support epithelial cells and play a critical role in maintaining the structure of skin, hair, and nails. Clinical studies also indicate that biotin can adjust the cellular arrangement of the nail bed, helping to strengthen keratin structure, promote strength and thickness, and reduce splitting. Biotin is also an essential cofactor for many metabolic carboxylation reactions, including the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Recent studies have expanded the metabolic role of biotin, demonstrating that the vitamin maintains healthy gene expression of the many enzymes for which it is a cofactor. For example, biotin can promote the transcription and translation of glucokinase, an enzyme found in the liver and pancreas that is involved in the metabolism of glucose to form glycogen.
