Can I take Biotin and Collagen together?

Why this happens

Biotin is a B-vitamin (B7) that helps the body convert nutrients into energy and supports the production of keratin. Collagen is a structural protein that provides the 'building blocks' for skin and joints. They do not interfere with each other's absorption, metabolism, or excretion.

What you should do

It is safe to take these together. However, be aware that high doses of biotin can interfere with certain medical blood tests (such as thyroid or heart enzyme tests). If you are due to have a blood test, tell your doctor or the lab staff that you are taking a biotin supplement.
