Biotin is a water-soluble B vitamin that can have a beneficial effect on
a number of structures and functions in the body.* In a clinical
trial, 45 patients with brittle fingernails received oral
supplementation of 2.5 mg biotin for 1.5-7 months. Ninety-one percent
showed "definite improvement," exhibiting firmer, harder fingernails
after an average of two months of supplementation.*
Biotin in a
higher amount, such as Is present in Thorne's Biotin-8, supports glucose
metabolism by stimulating glucose-induced insulin secretion in
pancreatic beta cells and by accelerating glucose metabolism in the
liver.* Biotin also enhances muscle insulin sensitivity by increasing
uptake of glucose by the muscle cells.*
