Mexican scientists have proven that that peanuts, when combined with the yeast extract in Australia’s favourite home-grown spread, are chockers with biotin – a vitamin involved in plenty of metabolic processes, including converting nutrients into energy. In addition, biotin naturally boosts levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (aka IGF-1) in the body; a growth hormone that stimulates muscle gain and repair, reduces fat and even improves endurance levels. (Fun fact: it’s so effective that it’s prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency in its synthetic form.)
