DAVINCI Labs Biotin – Suplemento con Vitamina C y Calcio – 60 Cápsulas

What is biotin and what is it used for?

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H, is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin that plays an essential role in numerous bodily functions. It acts as a cofactor in key enzymatic reactions related to macronutrient metabolism, helping to convert food into usable energy. In addition, it is a fundamental nutrient for maintaining normal hair, skin, and nail health.

This DAVINCI Labs supplement combines biotin with vitamin C and calcium, offering a complete formula for those seeking comprehensive nutritional support. Each vegetarian capsule provides an adequate dose of biotin in its active form (D-biotin), along with other nutrients that complement its action.

Benefits backed by EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has evaluated the scientific evidence on biotin and has approved the following health claims that can be used on food supplement labeling:

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

It is important to note that these claims refer to the maintenance of normal functions, not to the treatment or prevention of diseases. Biotin helps hair, skin, and mucous membranes stay in good condition as part of a healthy lifestyle.

Recommended dosage and forms of consumption

The recommended daily dose of biotin for adults typically ranges from 30 to 100 µg, although some supplements use higher doses. This product provides an adequate amount per capsule (consult the label for the exact dose). It is recommended to take one capsule daily with water, preferably during a meal to facilitate absorption.

Biotin is well tolerated by most people, and being water-soluble, excess is excreted in the urine. However, it is important not to exceed the daily dose indicated on the package.

Ingredients and formulation

In addition to biotin, this supplement includes vitamin C and calcium (as calcium carbonate). Vitamin C contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage and promotes normal collagen formation, essential for skin structure. Calcium is necessary for the maintenance of bones and teeth, and its combination with biotin adds value to the formula.

The capsules are vegetarian (suitable for vegetarians and vegans), gluten-free, and made with high-purity ingredients, following DAVINCI Labs' commitment to quality and transparency.

Possible side effects and safety

Biotin is considered safe at the doses commonly used in food supplements. No significant adverse effects have been reported with biotin consumption in the recommended amounts. In rare cases, very high doses could cause mild digestive discomfort, but this is uncommon.

As with any supplement, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional before starting consumption, especially during pregnancy, lactation, or if under medical treatment.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of young children.
