Introduction
So you want to increase your hair growth or make your hair look fuller? The intake of Biotin may be the answer. So lets take a look at what Biotin is and how you can increase your absorption of Biotin the natural way.
Biotin Vitamins
As you may know, Biotin was first discovered in the 1940s and was classified as vitamin H. Upon further analysis of this new vitamin, it was determined that it was more closely related to the vitamin B group. So now, Biotin is considered a member of the vitamin B family.
Biotin And Hair
Biotin has been found to be helpful for your hair by encouraging growth, thickening the shafts of your hair, preventing brittleness and may also help in preventing hair loss.
Since this vitamin is relatively new or newly discovered, research is still going on as to how Biotin is helpful to your body and your hair. It is known that it is important to converting fats and carbohydrates in your body to energy that the body can use. But much more research is needed to determine the overall effects that Biotin has on the body and the hair.
Natural Sources Of Biotin
Most people do not lack in obtaining the required amounts of Biotin needed for the proper functioning of the body. But people who may require additional sources Biotin are people who are being fed by tube or people, such as athletes, who eat large amounts of raw eggs.
The reason raw eggs reduce the amount of Biotin you have is because raw eggs have the chemical avidin that binds with Biotin preventing its absorption. If the eggs are cooked then the chemical avidin is not available to prevent the absorption of Biotin.
The best source of this vitamin is from boiled Swiss chard, tomatoes, lettuce and carrots. Other good sources include cooked chicken eggs, nuts such as almonds and walnuts, berries such as raspberries and strawberries and milk.
Of course if you feel you need additional sources of biotin you can always go to your local herb store and purchase supplements that you can take to increase your intake of Biotin.
Body Requirements
The body's need for Biotin varies depending on your age and your sexuality. For example, infants are required to have at least 5 to 6 µg, while adult females and males are required to have about 30 µg. Females who are pregnant require 35 µg of Biotin.
