NaturesPlus Biotin & Folic Acid (Folate) - 30 Sustained Release Tablets

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 essential for numerous bodily functions. Particularly popular for its role in maintaining hair, skin, and nails, biotin acts as a cofactor in key enzymatic reactions. In this supplement, it is combined with folic acid (in the form of folate), a vitamin B9 that also contributes to overall health. Together, they offer comprehensive support for energy metabolism, the nervous system, and natural beauty.

Benefits supported by EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has approved several health claims for biotin and folate. Specifically, biotin contributes to:

• The maintenance of normal hair.
• The maintenance of normal skin.
• The maintenance of mucous membranes.
• Normal energy-yielding metabolism.
• Normal functioning of the nervous system.

For its part, folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, normal psychological function, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. This combination offers comprehensive support for daily well-being.

Recommended dosage and forms of consumption

Each sustained-release tablet provides 2500 mcg of biotin and 8000 mcg of folate (folic acid). The sustained-release form allows for gradual absorption throughout the day, maintaining stable levels in the body. The recommended dosage is one tablet daily, preferably with a meal.
