What\'s the big deal about biotin??

I've seen that people take biotin for hair growth, but I've learned that biotin is one of the B-vitamins. I think it's vitamin b8 I'm not sure, but it's one of them. It's needed for other things, not just hair growth. And if you take too much of it, the excess gets... eleminated with your... number 1. So, does it really make a difference if you take more that is needed?

Well, from what I have read...it can't hurt sense it is water soluble and excess will just come out in urine..I think the problem is no one can possibly know how much of a vitamin we CAN absorb.

Anyone who knows more????
