Hair, skin and nail health

Biotin is a water-soluble B vitamin that provides benefits for healthy hair, skin and nails. It stimulates differentiation of the epidermis and promotes the production of keratins. These proteins contribute to epithelial cells and are critical in maintaining the structure of skin, hair and nails. Clinical studies also indicate that biotin may adjust the cellular arrangement of the nail bed, aiding in reinforcing the keratin structure, promoting resilience and thickness, and reducing splitting. Biotin is also an essential co-factor for a number of metabolic carboxylation reactions, including carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. Recent studies have expanded biotin’s metabolic role, indicating that the vitamin maintains healthy genetic expression of the many enzymes for which it is a cofactor. For example, biotin may act to promote transcription and translation of glucokinase, an enzyme found in the liver and pancreas that participates in the metabolism of the carbohydrate glucose to form glycogen.
