What it is

Biotin, also known as Vitamin B7, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a role in metabolism. It is found naturally in foods like eggs, nuts, and bananas. Biotin can also be produced synthetically for use in supplements and fortified foods.

Why it's used

Biotin is added to foods as a nutrient, often in energy bars and supplements. It is recognized for its role in the body's energy production and nutrient metabolism. It is commonly found in snack bars, energy bars, and granola bars.

Health notes

Biotin is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a nutrient. It is essential for normal health, and deficiency is rare. High doses of biotin supplements have been shown to interfere with certain lab tests, leading to potentially incorrect results. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated biotin and its role in nutrition.

Allergen info

Biotin is not a major allergen and is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
