Doctors Best Biotin Gummies are a potent source of biotin, a water-soluble B vitamin. Like some other vitamins, biotin is vital to biological processes, occurring in all our cells. Unlike most vitamins, however, biotin is a coenzymeit is actually part of the molecular structure of certain of our enzymes, and without it these enzymes cannot function. Biotin is essential for fetal development, for growth, and for health in adulthood

The body also needs biotin to make energy and to efficiently utilize proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Genetic research has established that biotin isprofoundly important for the stability of our DNA and healthy regulation of our gene functions. Clinical studies have found that biotin supplementation can improve the hair, skin, and nails. Sinc e the body cannot make biotin so we must obtain it from diet or supplements.

Dietary biotin is known to be required for the health of the brain, eyes, ears, lungs, voluntary muscles, bone, and immune system.

Pregnancy and lactation can deplete biotin, as can malnutrition, smoking, excessive alcohol intake, and certain medications.

The body has protein transporters specialized to absorb biotin, to deliver it to the brain across the blood-brain barrier, and to ensure its uptake from the bloodstream into our cells.

Promotes Healthy Hair, Skin and Nails*

Considerable evidence links biotin status to the health of the hair, skin, and nails. One mutation is known that changes the structure of hair and makes it virtually impossible to comb. This is often accompanied by scaling of the scalp skin. Biotin supplementation was found to make such problem hair much easier to comb, while increasing hair growth rate and eliminating scalp scaling.

Babies with inherited mutations of biotin enzymes, or simply with low blood biotin levels, can have totally bald scalps. Supplementation with biotin can restore hair growth in such bald babies, without adverse effects, and some researchers recommend that biotin supplementation be tried for any child with unexplained hair loss or skin changes.

Skin integrity is vulnerable to lack of biotin, whether due to dietary insufficiency, poor absorption, or mutations in biotin enzymes. Biotin enzymes are involved in the metabolism of fatty acids, required for skin health, and this helps explain the link between bi
