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.
Vitamins come in two forms: water-soluble and fat-soluble. The water-soluble vitamins are vitamin C and the B-complex vitamins. If you take in more than your body can use of these, they end up passing through you as expensive urine. Vitamins A, D, E and K, on the other hand, require fat to dissolve. Your body stores these vitamins, and if you take too much, the amount in your body can build to a harmful level. Tolerable Upper Intake Levels The highest amount of a vitamin you can safely take per day is known as the tolerable upper intake level, or UL.
