Biotin, referred to as vitamin H, is part of the vitamin B complex group and might
be interesting to some people since one of the most visible symptoms of shortage
of this vitamin is thinning of hair which can lead to total hair loss. This does not mean that baldness is a sign of vitamin H in short supply. Severe hair loss might just be indicative of biotin being deficient

Vitamin H is used in cell growth, the production of fatty acids, metabolism of fats,
and proteins. It plays a role in the Krebs cycle, which is the process in which
energy is released from food. Biotin is also indicated for healthy hair and skin, healthy sweat glands, nerve tissue, and bone marrow, and assisting with muscle pain. Vitamin H not only assists in various metabolic chemical conversions, but also helps with the transfer of carbon dioxide. Biotin is also helpful in maintaining a steady blood sugar level
