Biotin
Maintenance for hair and nails
Biotin (Vitamin B8) is necessary for the effective functioning of enzymes
that carry carboxyl units and fix carbon dioxide. It is essential for various
metabolic functions, including gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis, fatty acid
biosynthesis, metabolism of propionate and catabolism of branched-
chain amino acids.
In poor nutritional status, stress or seasonal change, nutritional deficiency
in the cells that compose the root of the hair and nails can cause weak-
ness or even hair loss. The biotin metabolic functions act as a revitalizing
and fortifying factor in these cells, giving strength and improving their ap-
pearance.
Biotin deficiency can manifest as acne, seborrheic eczema, acrodynia (al-
teration that often occurs in childhood and is characterized by pain in the
extremities, tachycardia, vasomotor and sweating), brittle nails, erythro-
derma (skin disorder mainly characterized by redness) or exfoliative dermatitis.
