source Edited with CanvaFor the past three months I have been complaining about my hair falling out every day, the discomfort of being afraid of going bald has made me look for a solution to overcome it. One that I have tried is using an anti-hair loss shampoo, but the loss that I experienced did not decrease. I kept looking for references on the internet and found a supplement that can increase hair fertility and reduce hair loss. The supplement I mean is Biotin, one of the supplements whose benefits, uses, and side effects I will discuss in this post as additional information for all of us.
My Previous Post:
After researching more deeply, I finally found out that Biotin is a B vitamin derivative that provides many benefits to the human body. Vitamin B7 contained in Biotin works by forming fatty acids and glucose, helps carbohydrates, amino acids, and breakdown fat in the body.
Biotin Structure - sourceI thought at first that this biotin only existed in supplement form, it turns out that the content is in foods like eggs, milk, fish,bananas, etc. Maybe the reason is in the form of supplements so that it's easy for us to get enough of it because, from food, I think it's a little difficult to get enough of it. After all, some people on a diet will reduce their food portions to reach the target. So it will be easier if you use Biotin supplements even though we have to spend more money to buy supplements, I have felt the benefits of this Biotin after consuming it for the past three weeks.
Biotin Supplement - sourceThe main reason I took biotin supplements was because I wanted to reduce hair loss, and it was true, little by little my hair started to become fertile again even though the results were not visible immediately, but I didn't just use supplements. I routinely use hair health products such as shampoo, conditioner, and vitamins for my hair to support my hair's fertility process. Biotin and vitamin B complex have the benefit of optimizing energy and glucose metabolism. Enzymes containing biotin will help the process of gluconeogenesis in the body, called the process of producing glucose from sources other than carbohydrates.
Another benefit of this Biotin is that it can support the work of the insulin hormone to regulate blood sugar in the body, some information says that biotin content can prevent insulin resistance and reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes.
I do not advise all of you to use Biotin supplements freely, it would be better to consult a doctor or medical expert when using certain supplements including Biotin, because each person will use a different dosage. In addition, always seek clear and valid information from a drug or any supplement before deciding to use it, because our goal is to increase life chances by supporting health.
