Supports Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis
There is a rare autoimmune disease that damages nerve fibers’ protective layers inside human’s brain. It is called Multiple Sclerosis and it is known to infect not only the brain but also the spinal cord as well as the eyes. Myelin is the one responsible for protecting these nerve fibers and biotin is known to produce myelin.
Multiple studies found out that MS respond quickly and positively to people taking a biotin supplement. In this research, they took a dose of biotin daily with 300 milligram. This kind of supplement can help with chronic disability and overall reverse the development of the diseases. Also, there are still limited studies about biotin with MS. More and more research is needed to define its efficacy and safety for people living with MS.
There is a recent study that was published last February of 2016. It suggests that having a high dose of biotin can help stabilize chronic multiple sclerosis. While this might be a smaller scale, with 23 participants, it did give positive results. The study also includes safety and found that it is rapidly absorbed, and the excess biotin is excreted via urine.
