Biotin

Health Benefits

Although biotin is one of the lesser known B vitamins, it plays an essential role in a number of important body processes. This nutrient assists the body in metabolizing protein, fats and carbohydrates from food. It plays a special role in enabling the body to use blood sugar (glucose). Biotin also helps produce certain enzymes. When low levels of biotin do occur, problems such as brittle nails and lackluster hair can develop.
