A member asked:
How long must biotin remain in the body before it is effective? i take it daily and drink lots of tea daily which probably flushes it out.

Don't worry about: The tea. Besides those who consume large amounts of rare egg whites or those with a malabsoprtion syndrome you should be absorbing biotin without issue. The tea shouldn't be causing issues. Be aware if you are taking large amounts of biotin to address certain issues, it's like that biotin deficiency isn't the case.
