Biotin which is also know as vitamin B7 is part of the the B complex group which is needed for a range of health benefits such as digestive, metabolic and nerve health. Biotin is water soluble and excess quantities are excreted in our urine. Because we are unable to store the extra biotin, including small quantities in our daily diet is important. Getting it from food is the best form, but otherwise supplementing is another option.
 
Biotin plays an important role in converting the foods we eat to energy by acting as a coenzyme that can metabolise different macronutrients (carbs, protein and fats)
 
Foods that contain biotin are :
 
Egg yolks
Liver (organ meats)
Salmon 
Cheese 
Yeast
Avocados
Raspberries
Cauliflower
Pork
Whole wheat bread
