Biotin is a water-soluble, B-complex vitamin. Its found in all living cells and is essential for cellular
metabolism.[1]Biotin is also known as vitamin H, coenzyme R, and vitamin B7. Confusingly, it is also
sometimes called vitamin B8, but this is unofficial and relatively uncommon (B8 more often refers to
inositol). Biotin is used by all living creaturesplants, animals, and even single-celled organisms.

In animals, biotin is essential for metabolizing proteins and converting sugar into usable energy.[2] Its
necessary for hormone production and helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels. Biotin promotes
healthy hair, skin, and nails. Mammals, including humans, cannot synthesize biotin and must obtain
it from dietary sources.

Biotin deficiency is rare but dangerous. The vitamin is crucial for normal fetal development and a
deficiency during pregnancy can result in birth defects.[3] Symptoms of biotin deficiency include brittle
nails, hair loss, muscle pain, nausea, fatigue, anemia, and dry skin.[4]

Not All Sources of Biotin Are Equal


There are two forms of biotin found in living cells: free and protein-bound. The latter is just what it
sounds likebiotin bound to protein. Its mostly found in bacteria and animal cells. Free biotin, which
is not bound to a protein, is more common in plants.[5]

The human body can use both forms of biotin, but free biotin is more immediately bioavailable. With
protein-bound biotin, your body must break the bond to convert biotin into a form it can use. Free-
biotin doesnt require this stepits easily absorbed and utilized in the body. Due to their high free
biotin content, plant-based foods are generally better dietary sources of the vitamin than animal-
based foods.[6]

Protein-Bound Biotin Sources


Many foods contain some biotin, but the concentration in most is negligible from a nutritional
standpoint. Other foods have a very high biotin content. Organ meats, like kidneys and liver, are the
most concentrated dietary source.[4] Milk, dairy products, and seafood are other rich, animal-derived
sources.[7] Although egg yolks have a high concentration of biotin, they also contain a chemical that
interferes with biotin absorption. A diet high in egg whites can actually lead to biotin deficiency.[4]

At Global Healing Center, we strongly recommend a raw, vegan diet, however, we understand that
not everyone will choose this lifestyle. If you must consume animal products, at least opt for organic
whenever possible. This can mitigate, though not eliminate, some of the many health risks
associated with the consumption of meat and dairy.

Plant-Based Biotin Foods


Although many types of animal-sourced food contain biotin, its protein-bound biotin. Plants contain
free biotin, which is more bioavailable. This means that getting enough biotin from a vegan diet is
achievable. Considering the multitude of other health benefits associated with a plant-based diet, its
also the healthiest choice.

As weve only recently begun to understand the importance of biotin, nutritional experts are still
refining accurate methods for measuring biotin concentration in food. As such, estimates of biotin
content vary greatly for some foods and are completely lacking for many others. After exhaustive
research, weve compiled this list of the best biotin foods.

1. Nuts
Although biotin concentration varies by the type of nut, nuts, in general, are one of the best dietary
sources of free biotin. One hundred grams of pecans contains about 28 micrograms (mcg) of biotin;
the same amount of peanuts or walnuts contains almost 37 mcg. Nuts are also a great source of
energy, omega fatty acids, and other heart-healthy nutrients.

2. Sunflower Seeds
Heart-healthy, high in magnesium, and rich in antioxidants, a handful of sunflower seeds makes a
great snack. Theyre also an excellent source of biotin. One hundred grams of sunflower seeds
contains 66 mcg of the vitamin.[8]

3. Legumes
Legumes are another excellent source of biotin, especially green peas. Peas have 40 mcg of biotin
per 100 grams when fresh and 70 mcg when dried; lentils offer 40 mcg of biotin. Even better,
legumes are high in folic acid and enhance digestion.[8]

4. Cauliflower
As a cruciferous vegetable, cauliflower is great for detoxing the liver and its loaded with healthy
nutrients, one of which is biotin.[9] A single serving of cauliflower offers 5% of your daily biotin
requirement. Cauliflower is also high in vitamin C and many other health-promoting
compounds.[10] Not only is it great as a raw snack, but there are also many cauliflower recipes you
can enjoy.
5. Bananas
Generally speaking, most types of fruit are not a very good source of biotin. Bananas are an
exception. One, average-sized, peeled banana (about 100 grams) contains 118 mcg of
biotin.[11] Bananas are also a good source of dietary fiber, potassium, manganese, calcium, iron,
magnesium, phosphorus, and vitamins A, C, and B6.

6. Cereals
Many cereal grains are a good source of biotin. Rice bran has a particularly high concentration, 66
mcg per 100 grams. Barley and oatmeal offer 31 and 24 mcg, respectively.[12]

7. Avocados
Avocados are more popular now than ever before and for good cause. In addition to their many
positive qualities, avocados are also a decent source of biotin. One whole avocado contains 2-6
micrograms of the vitamin, so dont be afraid to have a little more organic guacamole.[3]

8. Other Good Sources of Biotin


There are many other good sources of biotin. Carrots, leafy green vegetables, tomatoes,
raspberries, and mushrooms can all contribute significantly to your daily biotin intake. Yeast also has
an incredibly high biotin content, as do yeast-derived products like whole-grain bread.[11]

How Much Biotin Do You Need?


Compared to other vitamins, much is still unknown about biotin. There is currently no official daily
recommended intake of biotin and hypotheses of what it should be vary drastically. The U.S.
National Library of Medicine recommends a daily allowance of as little as 30 micrograms.[13] At the
other end of the spectrum, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recommends a daily allowance ten
times higher300 micrograms for adults.[14]

Based on my experience, I tend to believe that our biotin requirements are at the high end of that
scale. As a water-soluble vitamin, biotin doesnt accumulate in your body like a fat-soluble vitamin.
That means you need to replenish your supply regularly. If you take in more than you need, your
body will simply excrete the excess biotin through urine. Individual requirements vary, but I
recommend using the following chart as a general frame of reference for your daily biotin intake:[14]

Life Stage Adequate Intake (AI) for Biotin, Daily

Infants 50 mcg

Children under 4 150 mcg

Adults and Children Over 4 300 mcg

Generally speaking, adults need more biotin than children, and pregnant or breastfeeding women
may need more than other adults. Many health conditions or deficiencies influence the amount of
biotin you need. Its best to consult your trusted healthcare professional for guidance with your
personal biotin needs.

4 FOOD GROUPS HIGH IN BIOTIN

Eggs
Eggs are a good source of protein and biotin. Even cooked eggs still maintain an
excellent supply of biotin as well as zinc, iron and other B vitamins. Scrambled eggs
with mushrooms are a great way to benefit, as mushrooms are also a biotin-rich food.
Even if you do not want a whole meal based on eggs, it is very easy to add chopped
hard-boiled eggs to a salad or snack.
Almonds, Nuts and Legumes
Nuts and nut-based butters such as peanut butter are high in nutrients, fiber, protein,
biotin and vitamin E. In particular, almonds are great for a healthy scalp and hair.
Legumes such as black-eyed peas and kidney beans, edamame and stir-dried tofu
make great snacks and are packed with vitamins and minerals including biotin. These
are particularly important for those on a vegetarian diet.
Whole Grains
Nibbling on whole grains such as wheat, oats and barley are a healthy source of biotin
and vitamins and will contribute to a healthy head of hair. Include rice, oats and bulgar
in your meals where possible and start the day with a whole-grain cereal, preferably one
enriched with B vitamins including biotin.
Milk and Meat
Dairy products, meat and oily fish such as salmon and tuna all provide plenty of biotin.
Cheese, yogurt, chicken and liver are particularly high in this nutrient.
Once you are nourishing your hair with biotin-rich foods from the inside, it is only a
matter of time before shiny, healthy hair will follow. Use nourishing hair care products
which do not strip the hair of its sheen, to ensure you are feeding your hair and scalp
from the inside and maintaining it from the outside.

List Of 31 Biotin Rich Foods For Hair Growth Great Foods With Biotin
Biotin is also called vitamin B7, coenzyme R, or vitamin H. It was discovered around seventy years
ago. Since then, it has been dedicated that biotin has a lot of roles inside the body. It is determined
as part of the B complex which is responsible for boosting the hair, skin, liver, nerves, and eyes. The
reason is that biotin is a coenzyme that is responsible for providing energy inside the body by
supporting the body with breaking down fats and carbs and turning them into glucose. It can also
allow working proteins to produce essential amino acids, making it an essential tool in learning about
type-2 diabetes.

8 Foods Rich in Biotin


Fitday Editor

Nutrition
Vitamins and Minerals

Biotin is a water soluble B vitamin that is essential for bodily health. It helps the body to process fat
and sugars, and it helps form a critical process in fat production in the body. Since biotin is so
involved with creating the building blocks for basic body functions at a cellular level, it's very
important to have a sufficient supply of this nutritional element.

Biotin is particularly necessary for pregnant women. When an expecting mother has an inadequate
supply of biotin in her diet, certain conditions might be manifested in both the adult and the infant,
where skin discolorations can indicate a biotin deficiency, which can have some negative effects.

National health experts recommend 30 micrograms of biotin a day for pregnant and lactating
women. Because this is a water soluble compound, it can't easily be saved in the body long-term, so
it's important to get it into a regular diet.
Here are some of the top choices for a regular intake of biotin.

1. Swiss Chard - This green plant is a top producer of biotin. It's also a great part of a healthy
salad choice that will provide antioxidants and help balance a diet.
2. Carrots - Carrots contain a supply of biotin, as well as beta-carotene, which helps with
general eye health.
3. Almonds, Walnuts and Other Nuts - A variety of nuts supply the body with biotin, and are a
portable way to get proteins and other nutrition into a diet.
4. Chicken Eggs - Eggs are a source of biotin, although it's important to note that eating a diet
unusually high in egg whites can actually be a catalyst for a biotin deficiency. That's because
a specific element in the egg whites binds to the element and prevents it from being
distributed properly. It's important to always consider how eggs are added to a diet in order
to prevent this kind of vitamin deficiency.
5. Goat's Milk and Cow's Milk - In addition to calcium and other healthy items, milks are also
a source of biotin for the body.
6. Berries and Fruits - Some types of berries, including strawberries and raspberries, can get
the body a significant amount of biotin. These fruits also provide antioxidants and health
benefits, as part of a natural, whole food approach to eating. Experts recommend buying
local and organic when possible.
7. Halibut - In addition to being "brain food," this fish also contains large amounts of biotin.
Think about adding it as an occasional entre.
8. Vegetables - Other vegetables like onions, cucumbers and cauliflower all contain biotin, and
are healthy ways to fit this vitamin into meals.

The above are some of the healthiest ways to introduce biotin into a regular diet that will provide
general health benefits, and also make sure that a biotin deficiency will not affect a pregnancy.
Expecting mothers can learn more from their medical providers in terms of what to expect during the
gestational term, and how to use a well-planned diet to guard against various health risks for herself
and the baby.

Learning more about how to balance a diet and include essential vitamins and minerals will help
each individual stay stronger and healthier over time, without having to rely on more extensive
solutions for supplementing a diet that may be inadequate.
