Biotin Warning - lab testingUpdated 2 months ago
Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, is a water-soluble vitamin often found in multivitamins, prenatal vitamins, and dietary supplements marketed for hair, skin, and nail growth. According to the FDA, high levels of biotin can interfere with certain lab tests and cause incorrect test results which may go undetected. Thus, MegaFood has taken the initiative to place the statement, "Biotin is an important nutrient. Biotin may interfere with lab tests. If you are taking medication or planning to undergo lab testing, consult with your doctor before use," on all MegaFood products that deliver greater than a 100% recommended daily value of biotin. The 300 mcg of biotin delivered in a serving of MegaFood B-Unstressed is a safe amount to take daily.
