Essential Source Biotina 5000 mcg - 30 Comprimidos para el Cabello, la Piel y las Uñas

What is biotin and what is it used for?

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H, is a water-soluble B vitamin. It plays a fundamental role in various bodily functions, such as energy metabolism, nervous system maintenance, and the health of skin, hair, and nails. Being water-soluble, the body does not store it in large quantities, so it is necessary to obtain it regularly through diet or supplementation.

Essential Source Biotin offers 5000 mcg per tablet, a dose that is within the usual range in hair and skin care supplements. This formula is enriched with a combination of vitamins and nutrients that work synergistically to enhance its effects.

Benefits backed by the EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has evaluated the health claims for biotin and has approved the following statements:

• Biotin contributes to normal energy metabolism.
• Biotin contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
• Biotin contributes to the maintenance of hair under normal conditions.
• Biotin contributes to the maintenance of mucous membranes under normal conditions.
• Biotin contributes to the maintenance of skin under normal conditions.

In addition, the formula includes vitamin A, which contributes to the maintenance of skin under normal conditions, and vitamin C, which contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal functioning of the skin. Vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin) and other B vitamins also support energy metabolism and nerve function.

Recommended dosage and method of consumption

The recommended daily dose of Essential Source Biotin is one tablet per day, preferably with a meal to facilitate absorption. Each tablet contains 5000 mcg of biotin, an amount that has been widely used in studies and by consumers seeking to maintain hair, skin, and nail health. Recommended doses should not be exceeded. As with any supplement, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional before starting to take it, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or undergoing medical treatment.

What makes the Essential Source formula special?

Essential Source Biotin is not just biotin. Its advanced formula includes 20 active ingredients, including vitamins A, C, riboflavin, niacin, P5P (active form of vitamin B6), B12 as methylcobalamin, and alpha-lipoic acid. In addition, it incorporates Revytalyz 5, a patented blend that combines Fo-ti root, hyaluronic acid, bioflavonoids, and centella asiatica, known for their role in skin hydration and regeneration.

To maximize absorption, Bioperine (black pepper extract) has been added, which improves the bioavailability of nutrients. This means that the body can better utilize each component, obtaining greater benefits with the same dose.

Safety and side effects

Biotin is generally safe and well tolerated, even at high doses. Being water-soluble, excess is eliminated in the urine. No serious adverse effects have been described in the usual dosage ranges. However, very high doses (above 10,000 mcg) can interfere with laboratory tests, such as thyroid hormones, so it is recommended to inform your doctor if you are taking a biotin supplement before having tests done.
