Vitamin B Complex
The B vitamins are a family of water-soluble vitamins involved in numerous processes throughout the body.
Different B vitamins perform different functions, but collectively they are particularly important for normal energy metabolism, nervous-system function, psychological function and the formation and maintenance of healthy cells.
The exact benefits of a B Complex treatment depend on the individual B vitamins contained within the prescribed preparation.
ENERGY METABOLISM
Several B vitamins contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
Rather than providing artificial stimulation, B vitamins participate in metabolic processes that allow the body to obtain and use energy from carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
TIREDNESS & FATIGUE
Several members of the B-vitamin family contribute to reducing tiredness and fatigue.
Where inadequate vitamin status is contributing to symptoms, correcting this may help restore normal physiological function.
NERVOUS SYSTEM
B vitamins including B1, B2, B3, B6, biotin and B12 have recognised roles in normal nervous-system function.
The nervous system controls communication between the brain and body and is involved in everything from movement and sensation to cognition.
PSYCHOLOGICAL FUNCTION
Several B vitamins contribute to normal psychological function.
They participate in metabolic pathways required for normal brain and nervous-system activity.
SKIN & MUCOUS MEMBRANES
Depending upon the formulation, certain B vitamins contribute to the maintenance of normal skin and mucous membranes.
HORMONAL ACTIVITY
Vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity.
