Q. Is vitamin B7 the same as vitamin H?

Answer

Yes they are the same. Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin that aids in the metabolism of lipids carbohydrates and proteins. It is also known as vitamin H or vitamin B7. Because the body cannot retain water-soluble vitamins regular consumption is required. Vitamin B7 is not synthesized in human cells. However biotin may be synthesized by gut bacteria and it is widely available in dietary sources. Some medical disorders may respond well to biotin treatment. There is little proof that nail and hair supplements work yet some individuals take them anyhow. Individual biotin pills B vitamin combinations and multivitamins are all options for getting the daily dose of this vitamin.
