Biotin

This is an automatic translation

Biotin, also known as Vitamin H or Vitamin B8, belongs to the group of water-soluble vitamins. It is an important component of metabolic enzymes and a deficiency can lead to weakness, hair thinning (alopecia), brittle nails and skin rashes.

Given the impossibility for our body to accumulate it, biotin must be regularly consumed through food. It is found in many foods, particularly in milk and cheese, but also in avocado, peanuts, sunflower seeds, mushrooms and eggs.

On a cosmetic level, its use helps to keep hair, nails and skin in good condition. It also helps control sebum production.

It is also often found in food supplements, which, associated with proper nutrition, can be a valid way to replenish and assimilate biotin and maintain healthy hair and nails.
