Beauty Before Age
Are you curious about how to achieve beauty before age? We’ve all heard the expression that age is but a number, which is true, however, through some research and personal experience, I have found that biotin has helped me retain the skin and hair of my younger years. Biotin is a supplement used to support the growth, strength, and gloss of hair, skin & nails. I began taking biotin about two years ago. I was tired of my hair and nails growing slowly. I had recently chopped my hair and regretted it. Through my research on the internet, I discovered biotin worked well for many others! I was desperate, so I gave it a try. To my surprise, it worked! In the first year, I grew my hair an additional six inches! I was so pleased with the results and have raved about biotin ever since. I continue taking biotin, and my hair is stronger and thicker than ever. Similarly, my nails have gone from thin and brittle to strong and fast-growing! Now that you know how biotin can help you, let us talk about what biotin is.
What is Biotin?
Biotin, also known as vitamin H or B7, is of the B complex vitamin family. It helps the body convert food into energy which, in return, supports hair growth, nail growth, and clarity of the skin. If a person is biotin deficient, they can experience hair loss and rashes. Biotin derives from the Greek word “biotos,” which means ‘life’ or ‘sustenance.’ If you are wary about taking supplements, fear not. You can find natural biotin in foods such as salmon, avocado, eggs, bananas, milk, and more. Biotin is especially crucial during pregnancy as it assists in embryo growth!
How much should you be taking?
Now, let’s talk about usage. There is no evidence suggesting that one can take too much biotin. Medical research has not found solid evidence that ingesting too much biotin is toxic to the human body, indicating biotin is a very safe supplement. Understandably, the recommended daily amount for biotin is 30 to 100 micrograms in adolescents and adults. You can find biotin at just about any store you regularly buy supplements. Remember to consult with your doctor or family physician before taking any vitamin supplements. Just because it worked for me doesn’t mean it will automatically be your fix. It’s certainly worth a try though!
