The FDAâs decision to give the thumbs up to spirulina as a source of blue color in candy and gum finally gives US firms a natural alternative to artificial FD&C Blue #1 ('brilliant blue') and opens up new opportunities in natural greens, say color suppliers.
Actually I just looked it up to make sure and yes biotin is created in the large intestine by bacteria. Also vitamin K is as well, but vitamin K is a fat soluble vitamin where biotin is water soluble. Source(s): http://www.vivo.colostate.edu/hbooks/pat... Plus having CF makes me take a lot of vitamins plus its an interesting topic to me.
There are fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins. Fat-soluble vitamins are stored in the fat tissues of our bodies, as well as the liver. Fat-soluble vitamins are easier to store than water-soluble ones, and can stay in the body as reserves for days, some of them for months.. Fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed through the intestinal tract with the help of fats (lipids). Water-soluble vitamins do not get stored in the body for long-they soon get expelled through urine. Water-soluble vitamins need to be replaced more often than fat-soluble ones. Vitamins A, D, E and K are fat-soluble.
