Biotin (Vitamin B7)

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H, is a water-soluble vitamin essential for many bodily functions, especially metabolic processes.

Functions of Biotin in the Body:

• Energy Production: Helps convert food (carbohydrates, fats, and proteins) into energy.
• Fatty Acid Formation: Contributes to the production of essential fatty acids.
• Metabolism of Amino Acids and Carbohydrates: Plays a role in the breakdown and utilization of these nutrients.

Biotin deficiency is rare because it is available in many foods.
