Biotin is a B vitamin involved in the conversion of food into energy. Found naturally in a number of foods, biotin is essential for the formation of fatty acids and blood sugar (also called glucose). Sometimes referred to as "vitamin H," biotin aids in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins as well.According to the Institute of Medicine, the daily adequate intake for adults 19 years of age and older is 30 mcg, which can usually be achieved through dietary consumption. Although biotin deficiency is believed to be uncommon, it may occur in people who drink alcohol excessively or consume a great deal of raw egg white (which contains a protein that blocks the absorption of biotin). A genetic disorder of biotin deficiency, inflammatory bowel disease, and medications such as carbamazepine and other anticonvulsants, antibiotics, or isotretinoin may also increase your need for biotin.Symptoms of biotin deficiency include thinning of the hair, a red scaly rash (especially around the eyes, nose, and mouth), depression, exhaustion, hallucinations, and tingling in the arms and legs.Proponents claim that getting more biotin can help regulate your blood sugar, promote hair growth (including eyebrow, eyelash, and beard growth), and strengthen nails.ALL NATURAL, NON-GMO & PACKAGED IN USA – All Integrity Vitamin products (capsules, pills, tablets, vitamins, powders, multivitamins, supplements, vegan foods and extracts for men, women, and seniors) are manufactured with domestic and imported materials and are packaged in the USA in FDA-approved and GMP-certified facilities.
