What is biotin and what is it used for?

Discover Griin Skin Hair — Biotin, also known as vitamin B7 or vitamin H, is a water-soluble B vitamin. It plays a fundamental role in nutrient metabolism, helping to convert food into energy. In addition, it contributes to the maintenance of hair, skin and nails under normal conditions. Although often associated with beauty, its functions go further.

Benefits backed by EFSA

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

• Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
• Contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
• Contributes to the maintenance of normal hair.
• Contributes to the maintenance of normal skin.
• Contributes to the maintenance of normal mucous membranes.
• Contributes to normal psychological function.

Complementary ingredients: hydrolyzed collagen and pantothenic acid

This supplement combines biotin with hydrolyzed collagen and pantothenic acid (vitamin B5). Hydrolyzed collagen is a protein that forms part of the structure of skin, bones and joints.

The combination of these nutrients can offer comprehensive support for personal care.
