MRM Biotin

In Energy Production Biotin is involved in the metabolism of both sugar and fat.* In sugar metabolism, biotin helps move sugar from its initial stages of processing on to its conversion into usable chemical energy.*

Biotin is required for function of an enzyme in the body called acetyl Co-A carboxylase.* This enzyme puts together the building blocks for the production of fat in the body. Fat production is critical for all cells in the body since the membranes of all cells must contain the correct fat components to function properly. Fat production is especially critical for skin cells since they die and must be replaced very rapidly, and also because they are in contact with the outside environment and must serve as a selective barrier.

Support of Nervous System Activity Because glucose and fat are used for energy within the nervous system, biotin also functions as a supportive vitamin in this area.*
