What is biotin and what is it 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 coenzyme in key metabolic reactions, participating in fatty acid synthesis, gluconeogenesis, and amino acid metabolism. Biotin is especially known for its relationship with hair, skin, and nail health, although its benefits go beyond that.

Benefits endorsed by the EFSA

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

• Maintenance of hair under normal conditions.
• Maintenance of skin under normal conditions.
• Maintenance of mucous membranes under normal conditions.
• Normal energy metabolism.
• Normal functioning of the nervous system.
• Normal macronutrient metabolism.
• Maintenance of normal psychological function.

These claims are supported by scientific evidence and are the only ones authorized for use in the European Union.

Recommended dosage and method of consumption

Each Superior Source Biotin sublingual tablet provides 10,000 micrograms (10 mg) of biotin in its active D-biotin form. The recommended daily intake for adults is 30 to 100 micrograms, although higher doses like those in this product are commonly used under supervision to support specific needs. The sublingual (MicroLingual) form allows for rapid absorption by dissolving under the tongue, bypassing the digestive tract and facilitating its assimilation.

It is recommended to take one tablet daily, allowing it to dissolve under the tongue. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.

What foods contain biotin?

Biotin is found naturally in many foods. The richest sources include egg yolk, nuts (almonds, walnuts), seeds, liver, kidneys, yeast, whole grains, soy, legumes, mushrooms, and some vegetables such as spinach and broccoli. A balanced diet usually provides adequate amounts of biotin, although certain conditions may increase its need.

Possible side effects and safety

Biotin is considered safe at normal doses. No significant adverse effects have been established even with high doses, as the excess is eliminated in the urine. However, very high doses (above 10 mg) can interfere with laboratory tests, such as thyroid function tests. Therefore, it is important to inform your doctor if you are taking biotin supplements. Its use is not recommended in pregnant or breastfeeding women without consulting a healthcare professional.
