YOUTUBE Biotin and Thyroid Tests

Many people with Hashimoto's begin taking biotin mainly in hopes that it can improve hair, nails, and skin.
Biotin as a supplement is formulated and sold under a number of names, including vitamin B7, B-complex vitamins, and sometimes may be listed as part of an herbal supplement formula to improve hair and nails.
Biotin is a B vitamin, and many multivitamins contain approximately 50 mcg.
There are some problems with this supplement, however. Many Hashimoto's people who are taking megadoses of biotin can in fact experience falsely high results in a variety of laboratory tests, including thyroid labs, and especially free T4.
Biotin interference with lab tests could be causing misdiagnoses - and even mistreatment - so its use should be monitored.
It is always vitally important to disclose any Biotin formulas you are taking to your prescribing physician - so they know to watch for this possible interference on thyroid lab tests. You don't want this falsely high result to negatively impact your medication. And, it may be necessary to discontinue the Biotin supplement in order to get a normal lab test result.
Working with a Board Certified Holistic Nutrition professional is another way to make sure you are not experiencing any negative drug/nutrient, lab/nutrient or nutrient/nutrient interactions.
Thanks for watching!
