Thorne , Biotin, 8,000 mcg, 60 capsules

Product Description: Supplement Basics Healthy Skin/Hair Gluten-Free Biotin provides a large amount of biotin (vitamin B7) per capsule. The nail-strengthening effect of biotin was verified through a clinical trial in which 45 patients with brittle nails took 2.5 mg of biotin orally for 1.5 to 7 months. Among them, 91% experienced a ‘clear improvement’ in their nails becoming harder and stronger after an average of 2 months of taking biotin. Biotin also helps maintain healthy skin, hair, and nerve function. Taking high-dose biotin supplements, such as Thorne's biotin, enhances glucose metabolism by stimulating glucose-driven insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells and increasing the rate of glucose metabolism in the liver. In a similar way, biotin can increase the insulin sensitivity of muscles by increasing the rate of glucose uptake by muscle cells.
