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.
Doctor's Answer: Vitamins are classified as either fat soluble (vitamins A, D, E and K) or water soluble (vitamins B and C). This difference between the two groups is very important. It determines how each vitamin acts within the body. The fat soluble vitamins are soluble in lipids (fats). These vitamins are usually absorbed in fat globules (called chylomicrons) that travel through the lymphatic system of the small intestines and into the general blood circulation within the body. These fat soluble vitamins, especially vitamins A and E, are then stored in body tissues.
