Are your skin and nails breaking again and again? Maybe the body is looking for this special vitamin

News India Live, Digital Desk: Amidst today’s hustle and bustle and eating outside, we often forget that the path to our external beauty passes through our internal health. We spend thousands of rupees on facial and skincare products, but if there is a deficiency of a particular vitamin in the body, then no cosmetic in the world works. Today we are talking about Vitamin B-7, which is also known as Biotin in common language. Why is it called ‘Beauty Vitamin’? Imagine, you slept well last night, drank plenty of water, yet this morning you did not see that old glow on your face? Or has the skin become unnecessarily dry and cracked? Actually, Vitamin B-7 is the engine that converts fat, carbs and protein into energy in our body. When it is deficient, it directly affects our most delicate things—like our skin, hair and nails. How does the body give signals? Often we ignore small problems. But if these things are happening with your skin, then be a little cautious: Dryness and cracked skin: If the skin remains dry even after applying moisturizer, it can be a symptom of Vitamin B-7 deficiency. Redness near the eyes and nose: The presence of small red pimples or scaly skin around the nose, mouth or eyes indicates that the body needs biotin. Weak nails and falling hair: Only skin. No, if the nails are breaking from the middle or the hair is losing its shine and falling out, then the matter may be related to Vitamin B-7. Where do we go wrong? Most of the time we think that what we are eating is enough. But do you know that eating too many raw eggs or taking too many antibiotics can also cause biotin deficiency in the body? The bacteria in our stomach help produce this vitamin, and when the digestive system deteriorates, its effect is directly visible on the face. How to compensate naturally? You do not need any magic medicine to overcome the deficiency of Vitamin B-7. Its treasure is hidden in our kitchen itself: Egg Yolk: The yellow part of the egg is a very good source of biotin. Nuts and seeds: Include almonds, walnuts, and sunflower seeds in your diet. These are not only good for the skin but also for the brain. Cauliflower and Sweet Potato: If you are a vegetarian, then these vegetables are best for you. Whole grains: Grains like oats and brown rice provide essential nutrition to the body. A little advice: If you have resolved to take care of yourself on this first morning of 2026, then start with your plate. Vitamin deficiency does not happen overnight, nor is it cured overnight. Be patient and make small changes in your lifestyle. Your skin will automatically start glowing. If the problem seems very serious, then instead of becoming your own doctor, definitely consult an expert. Be happy and keep shining!
