I just notice possible typo as Maynard pointed out. It is ･ﾓ(two dots) instead of a little circle on upper right of ･ﾒ which is letter ･ﾔ. I guess this is a source of your confusion. If looked up Google or else thinking the word is ･ﾔ(p)･ｪ･ﾁ･

Great. Many thanks. Incidentally, I did try a google search for ピチオン with a 'p' and lots of hits came up, so it's not just me that got it wrong! They were all clearly some kind of nutrient but it still didn't help with the actual English term.

Explanation:
See the article :QUOTE
Vitamin H - biotin - is required for
Vitamin H is used in cell growth, the production of fatty acids, metabolism of fats, and proteins. It plays a role in the Kreb cycle, which is the process in which energy is released from food.

Biotin is also indicated for healthy hair and skin, healthy sweat glands, nerve tissue, and bone marrow, and assisting with muscle pain.

Vitamin H not only assists in various metabolic chemical conversions, but also helps with the transfer of carbon dioxide. Biotin is also helpful in maintaining a steady blood sugar level.UNQUOTE
