Does biotin make hair stronger?

Yes, I'm pretty sure biotin does make your hair stronger!! I take vitamins daily and their is a biotin supplement in it.

Biotin acts as a coenzyme in several metabolic reactions. It functions in the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates, the breakdown of proteins, and the conversion of amino acids from protein into blood sugar for energy. Which reconstructs the protiens in your body; hair, nails, skin...etc.

Milk, liver, egg yolk, yeast, and dried peas and beans are good sources of biotin. Nuts and mushrooms contain smaller amounts of the vitamin. Bacteria in the intestinal tract can also make biotin.

Another thing that helps with your hair is gelatin. Most people who are vegatarians should go to the grocery store and get the plain gelatin thats found in jello and you boil it. Gelatin is found in horse hooves! Ever know that?!?!
