Vitamin B7 (Biotin)Updated 2 days ago
Why does Vitals⁺ include Vitamin B7?
Vitamin B7—commonly known as biotin—is a water-soluble B-vitamin that plays a key role in keeping your hair, skin, and nails healthy, as well as supporting your nervous system and metabolism.
Vitals⁺ includes 50μg of biotin, in the naturally active form D-biotin. That’s 100% of your daily NRV, providing dependable daily coverage to support how you feel—and how you look.
🤔 What does biotin actually do?
Biotin works as a coenzyme, meaning it's involved in a wide range of essential metabolic processes. It:
Helps maintain healthy skin and hair
Supports normal functioning of the nervous system
Contributes to macronutrient metabolism, helping your body process fats, carbs and proteins
It’s also vital for energy release and cellular function—essentially helping you power through the day.
🤔 Why D-biotin—and why this amount?
We use D-biotin, the naturally occurring, biologically active form your body uses directly.
Our 50μg dose matches the EFSA’s Adequate Intake (AI) for adults—a level shown to maintain optimal health in European populations, including those on plant-based diets (where animal sources of biotin may be limited).
