The eight vitamins that make up the vitamin B complex are thiamine or vitamin B1, riboflavin or vitamin B2, niacin or vitamin B3, pyridoxine or vitaminB6, Cobalamin or vitamin B12, folic acid, Pantothenic acid, biotin. Other related substances also found in B vitamins are choline, inositol and Para-Aminobenzoic acid.
Each part of the B vitamin
complex has its
own functions in the
body, but when they work together as B vitamins, they provide the body with the nutrients it needs
to maintain good health. The
vitamin B complex consists of water-soluble B vitamins and it is important to
consume adequate amounts of these vitamins on a daily basis. The body cannot store water-soluble
vitamins such as B vitamins,
so they must be supplemented regularly. The
B vitamins
are extremely beneficial for many medical conditions and additional amounts may be
needed at certain times in a person's life.
Of
course, the recommended daily amount of B vitamins varies depending on a person's gender and age.
However, doctors and other health professionals have discovered the benefits
of getting more B vitamins
to help with some ailments.
Many people experience anxiety and stress from time to time, and
research has shown that B vitamins may be helpful in reducing symptoms of anxiety and stress. When a
person is ill, B vitamins
can be extremely helpful in aiding the healing process. Fatigue can be a symptom of many illnesses, as can overeating,
but B vitamins
can help reduce fatigue and overall lethargy.
Interestingly, some skin conditions such
as dermatitis may
also benefit from vitamin B supplementation.
