Biotin is an essential coenzyme for a variety of carboxylation reactions, and is involved in the metabolism of fats, sugars and amino acids. Biotin is crucial for the utilization of glucose for energy, the breakdown and utilization of fatty acids in energy production, and the synthesis of protein from amino acids.

Biotin (Vitamin H) is an essential water-soluble B vitamin. The name biotin is taken from the Greek word bios meaning "life". Without biotin, certain enzymes do not work properly and various complications can occur involving the skin, intestinal tract, and nervous system. Metabolic problems including very low blood sugars between meals, high blood ammonia, or acidic blood (acidosis) can occur.
