As coenzymes (helping enzymes to carry out chemical reactions), B-vitamins are essential nutrients involved in most metabolic reactions. They play an important role in energy production, particularly from the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. These essential nutrients are also important for the production of healthy cells, hormones, neurotransmitters, and other biomolecules. They are needed for healthy nerve, heart, brain, muscle, and other important cell/tissue function. The B-vitamins are water-soluble and therefore are not stored to any significant extent in the body. This is why we need to ensure adequate intake of these nutrients on a daily basis. Due to the excess consumption of refined and processed foods, the average person does not consume optimal amounts of these nutrients. Our B-Complex 50 provides moderate amounts of essential B-Complex vitamins.
Features
B-Complex 50 provides a moderate-potency, full-spectrum B-vitamin supplement which helps support many different biochemical and physiological processes.†
B-complex contains USP grade nutrients and, therefore, meets strict standards for purity and potency.
Easy to swallow capsules.
Benefits
Thiamin, riboflavin, and niacin are essential for the production of energy from food. They also help support nerve and heart function, and help the body produce antioxidants.†
Vitamin B6 is needed to make neurotransmitters, chemicals that are essential for normal, healthy brain and nervous system function. B6 also helps support the metabolism of amino acids, including homocysteine, which, when elevated, may increase one’s risk for heart disease.†
Vitamin B12 and folic acid are both needed to make healthy blood cells by supporting DNA and RNA metabolism, and both help support normal, healthy levels of homocysteine; a recognized cardiovascular “toxin”.†
Pantothenic acid is needed to produce energy from fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, while biotin is essential for the metabolism of fatty acids and glucose, and assists in cellular energy production.†
Choline is needed to help support the production of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and serves as an important cofactor in healthy liver detoxification processes.†
Inositol serves as a signaling molecule helping to “direct” cellular function, while PABA serves as a component of folic acid.†
