Biotin

Biotin, or vitamin H, or vitamin B7, is a vital vitamin that has many functions in the body. It interferes with the metabolism of sugars, fats and amino acids. It is important for the production of energy in the body. It contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system and the normal condition of mucous membranes, hair and skin.

Biotin is essential for the metabolism of macronutrients such as carbohydrates, fats and proteins, and for the synthesis of some important substances in the body including glucose (sugar) and fatty acids. It helps convert these nutrients into the energy the body needs for proper cell function.
