SwansonBiotin 5000 mcg

Biotin is also known as vitamin B8 (in some countries B7) and belongs to the B vitamins. It is a water-soluble vitamin that occurs in small quantities in food.

This supplement contains synthetic D-biotin, the most commonly used and stable form of biotin in dietary supplements.

Biotin is found in eggs (especially egg yolk), nuts, seeds, liver, peanuts, milk, salmon, and whole grain products. The amounts can vary greatly per food.

Yes, biotin naturally occurs in foods such as eggs, nuts, milk, and whole grain cereals. Some people choose a supplement as an addition to their diet, since a dose of 5000 micrograms cannot be obtained from food alone.

Do not use biotin right before blood tests. High doses of biotin (such as 5000 mcg) can affect certain laboratory results. Discuss use beforehand with your doctor or the lab.
