What is biotin?

Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin that is a part of the vitamin B family and an important nutrient that you need to stay healthy. Also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H, biotin plays a big role in building the keratin infrastructure. Keratin is the basic protein that needs biotin to function to its full potential, and provide you with good hair, skin and nails. Did you know that the word “biotin” is derived from the Greek word “biotos” which literally translates to “life”? Biotin, its main source being food, helps your body metabolise fatty acids, glucose and amino acids; and maintains your overall health. However, if you are not getting enough biotin, it becomes evident in the form of brittle nails, skin conditions, and thinning hair.
