- DOCTOR’s BEST BIOTIN 10,000 MCG – is a water-soluble vitamin that’s a part of the vitamin B family. Your body needs biotin to help convert certain foods into energy. A vitamin which is needed for the metabolism of glucose and amino acids. Consuming biotin will help in restoring healthy hair, making nails strong. Also helps in keeping the liver, skin, and nervous system healthy
- PROMOTES HEALTHY HAIR, SKIN & NAILS – Biotin helps restore the health of your hair, smooths skin and strengthens your nails. Clinical studies have found that biotin can improve the hair, skin, and nails. Your body needs biotin to help convert certain nutrients into energy
- ENERGY BOOST – Biotin helps enzymes breakdown fats and carbohydrates and convert them into energy. Makes energy and helps to utilize proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Biotin is one of the 8 B-Complex vitamins that supports natural energy produced in the body
- MAINTAIN HEALTH & WELLBEING ACROSS THE LIFESPAN – Biotin is essential for fetal development, for growth, and for health in adulthood. Importance of biotin for health begins at conception. The developing brain and other organs of the fetus have a high requirement for biotin. Biotin deficiency is common among pregnant women in the United States. Lactation also increases the requirement for dietary biotin intake. Pregnant or lactating women are well advised to maintain healthy biotin levels

Doctor’s Best Biotin provides an ample dose of the B vitamin biotin that promotes healthy hair, skin and nails. Clinical observations of biotin deficiency shows its importance for the upkeep of healthy skin and hair, as well as for the immune and central nervous systems.* The body also uses biotin to produce energy and to efficiently utilize proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Since the body cannot make biotin it must be obtained from the diet. Clinical studies have found that biotin supplementation helps improve the hair, skin, and nails.*
How does it work?
At least seven human enzymes require biotin in order to function. Five have biotin integrated within their structure as a coenzyme, and these all belong to the carboxylase category. Measuring the activities of these carboxylase enzymes gives a more accurate picture of the body’s biotin status than measuring blood biotin levels. The activity of each carboxylase enzyme can be conveniently assessed by measuring the level of its specific end product in the urine. Of the five known biotin carboxylases, three are located in the mitochondria, the microscopic energy generators within our cells. Carboxylases that reside in the mitochondria help make heme, a protein that contains iron and is essential for the mitochondria’s energy generation functions. Consequently, biotin deficiency can impair the functioning of heme proteins in the mitochondria, which in turn can create a free radical challenge for the cell. The sixth biotin enzyme is biotinidase, which functions to release biotin from its linkages to proteins or other biomolecules and thereby make it available for utilization as a carboxylase coenzyme. Mutations in biotinidase can markedly lower biotin absorption from the foods and contribute to depletion of the body’s biotin stores.
