Vitamins belonging to the water-soluable B complex include B1 thiamin, B2 riboflavin, B3 niacin, B5 pantothenic acid, B6 pyridoxine, B7 biotin, B8 inositol, B9 folic acid, and B12 cobalamin. Choline, while technically not a vitamin, is often included in this group as it functions in close relationship with folic acid and cobalamin.
Vitamins in this group play many important roles in our body. Several are involved in the metabolic processes which convert carbohydrates, proteins and fats into energy. As well, B vitamins play a vital role in the formation and production of red blood cells, which are important for carrying oxygen to the cells. Several B vitamins play a role in the production of hormones, and regulation of cholesterol levels, and others support the integrity of nerve cells and healthy functioning of the central nervous system.
Perhaps because they are water soluable (and thus not stored in the body), and the fact that they play an important supporting role in the production of energy and central nervous system function, B complex vitamins may be susceptible to depletion during times of stress or intense activity.
CaliVita® Mega B Complex contains the complete range of B vitamins in the optimum ratios, in a time-release tablet that ensures a steady absoption rate.
