Biotin is a water-soluble B vitamin found naturally in foods such as eggs, liver, nuts and wholegrains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-q\" id=\"swbio-faq-amount\"\u003eHow much biotin is in each capsule?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-a\"\u003eEach capsule contains 5000µg (5mg) of D-biotin. That is 10,000% of the EU Nutrient Reference Value, which is set at 50µg per day. Note that US labels for this product show 16,667% because the US Daily Value for biotin (30µg) is lower than the EU reference figure — the product is identical, the reference value differs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-q\" id=\"swbio-faq-claims\"\u003eWhat does biotin do?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-a\"\u003eUnder EU Regulation 1924\/2006, biotin holds authorised claims stating that it contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal macronutrient metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal psychological function, and the maintenance of normal hair, normal skin and normal mucous membranes. These are the only health statements permitted for biotin in Ireland and the EU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-q\" id=\"swbio-faq-nails\"\u003eDoes biotin have an authorised claim for nails?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-a\"\u003eNo. The EU register authorises biotin claims for the maintenance of normal hair and normal skin, but a claim for normal nails was assessed and not authorised. We state only what the register permits, so no nail-related claim is made for this product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-q\" id=\"swbio-faq-legal\"\u003eIs 5000µg of biotin legal in Ireland?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-a\"\u003eYes. D-biotin is a permitted vitamin form for food supplements under EU Directive 2002\/46\/EC, and no EU maximum permitted level has been set for biotin in supplements. This product is sold in Ireland as a food supplement under FSAI rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-q\" id=\"swbio-faq-vegan\"\u003eIs it suitable for vegetarians and vegans?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-a\"\u003eNo. This version uses a gelatine capsule shell, so it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. Swanson also produces a vegan-capsule version of this product for some markets, so US listings often show \"vegan capsules\" for the same product name. The version we stock is the gelatine capsule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-q\" id=\"swbio-faq-dose\"\u003eHow do I take it, and how long does a bottle last?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-a\"\u003eTake one capsule per day with water, with or without food. At one capsule daily, a 100-capsule bottle lasts just over three months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-q\" id=\"swbio-faq-bloodtest\"\u003eCan biotin affect blood test results?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-a\"\u003eYes, this is worth knowing at high intakes. Biotin supplements can interfere with certain laboratory immunoassay tests, including some thyroid and cardiac tests, potentially causing falsely high or falsely low readings. If you are having blood tests, tell your doctor or the laboratory that you take a biotin supplement — they may advise pausing it for a period beforehand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-q\" id=\"swbio-faq-precautions\"\u003eAre there any precautions?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"swbio-faq-a\"\u003eThis product is for adults aged 18 and over. Consult your healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or have a medical condition.
