Description
Biotin is a naturally occurring and biologically active form of the B vitamin Biotin – it is also known as vitamin B7 and vitamin H. It is an essential coenzyme for a multitude of cellular reactions, particularly those responsible for influencing cell formation and growth as well as protein synthesis, metabolizing fats and carbohydrates for energy.
Biotin is crucial for the development and maintenance of fingernail cells and hair roots. Both hair and nails are made up of a protein called keratin, a strong substance contributing to their strong and hard texture. To produce keratin, the body needs amino acids – the building blocks of protein. One of biotins primary functions is to activate protein and amino acid metabolism in fingernail cells and hair roots to promote growth and maintain strength.
The effects of Biotin supplementation in the treatment of nail disorders was first discovered when horses were effectively treated with Biotin to correct problems with their hoofs becoming brittle and cracking. It was later found that biotin supplementation in humans can improve brittle nails, hair loss and a variety of skin conditions.
Studies have shown Biotin has also been shown to treat some serious skin aliments and can reduce redness, dryness, inflammation and acne blemishes!
Biotin is also crucial for the development and normal functioning of the central nervous system and brain. As its presence is essential for the formation of myeline; a fatty white substance crucial to the health of nerve cells and neurotransmitters. Studies have looked at and proven the effectiveness of Biotin in cases of progressive MS because it supports nerve cell metabolism! MS develops when myelin, a substance that protects the nerve cells, is damaged. Biotin activates key enzymes and helps the body to produce more of this the nerve-protecting substance!
This multi-functioning vitamin is also responsible for energy production on a day to day basis. There are numerous biotin depend enzymes that essential to initiate critical steps in the metabolic process. These enzymes are involved in protein, carb and fat metabolism – as well as the production of glucose and fatty acids.
This is not the only way Biotin aids the body in regulating long lasting energy and addresses the causes of fatigue. Biotin enables the body to metabolize carbohydrates, proteins and fats and convert them into usable energy. Without sufficient levels of Biotin you are unable to harvest sufficient usable energy and some of these essential fats and proteins will go unused and pass through your system.
Essential for:
- Strengthening hair, skin and mucus membranes
- Facilitating fast hair and nail growth
- Energy yielding metabolism
- Macronutrient metabolism
- Psychological function

I do not normally write review, but this product was life changing for my skin condition. I have had terrible psoriasis for 20 years, taking these tablets has reduced it to less than 10%. I’ve read up on other reviews and they’ve helped a lot of other people too.

I’ve used other stuff like minoxidil with little success, as my hair carried on getting progressively thinner. These tablets are amazing, my hair has stopped shedding and I can see regrowth on my crown area. These effects were seen in just a few weeks – top quality product that works!

My hair thinned out and my skin flared up after my second pregnancy. After two months my hairdresser complimented my hair and noticed it was thick and healthy. My skin is also blemish free and with a healthy glow. Feeling so much happier.

I used these for male pattern baldness, it definitely works. My hair looks thicker, dark and was also stronger to the touch.

My hair was soooo dry because I had it bleached and now I’m trying to get it back to its natural colour and grow it as much as possible but keep it healthy. It does make your hair grow faster and make it stronger and thick.

Be patient and reap the rewards, I am hooked. I’ve got an underactive thyroid and had both thinning hair and nails. I was surprised that after a few weeks my hair is so much thicker, in better condition in terms of shine and my nails have grown loads. 10/10
