Vitamins are substances needed in small amounts for normal body functions that the body cannot synthesize in adequate amounts. In many cases vitamins act as cofactors that are needed in order to allow enzymes to perform their important work of facilitating metabolism in the body. In this case the vitamins are called coenzyme vitamins.
Simply put, Coenzymes are helping enzymes to carry out chemical reactions.
Vitamin B is a vast group that contains quite a few different types of vitamins, which are also known as B complex vitamins. All the vitamins that are a part of this group are related to each other quite closely. Each type of Vitamin B complex is useful in a different way and your body needs each of them. As coenzymes, 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.†
Different foods containing Vitamin B complex (include but not limited to):
- B 1 (Thiamin): Beans, liver, wheat germ, fish, peanuts and oranges
- B 2 (Riboflavin): Green and leafy veggies, dairy products, nuts, beans and meat
- B 3 (Niacin): Nuts, meat, dairy products, beans and peanuts
- B 5 (Pantothenic Acid): Beans, liver and meat
- B 6 (Pyridoxine): Beans, meat and peanuts
- B 7 (Biotin): Clams, liver, eggs and milk
- B 9 (Folic Acid): Vegetables that are leafy & dark green in color, beans, liver & oranges
- B 12 (Cobalamin): Eggs, meat & dairy products such as milk, yogurt & cheese
Vitamin B complex is absolutely essential for the proper functioning of the human body. Therefore, foods containing Vitamin B complex should be an essential part of your daily diet.
Unfortunately, It is quite easy for a person to suffer from the deficiency of Vitamin B, as most people do not obtain adequate amounts of Vitamin B from daily sources of food. †
Dr. Kenawy's B-Complex 100 provides a balanced, high-potency, full-spectrum B-vitamin supplement with USP-Grade nutrients in an easy-to-swallow capsule. As most people do not obtain adequate amounts of Vitamin B from daily sources of food, it is quite easy to suffer Vitamin B insufficiency. Vitamin B complex is absolutely essential for the proper functioning of the human body. Studies indicate that the three main areas that B complex vitamins are required for are – the reproduction of cells, the nerve system and heart health. However, there are several other activities and functions that Vitamin B is also required for. †
†Features:
- B-Complex 100 provides a high-potency, full-spectrum B-vitamin supplement which helps support many different biochemical and physiological processes.†
- Dr. Kenawy’s B-complex contains USP-Grade nutrients, 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, individual components found in protein foods.†
- 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.†
