B vitamins!
Let me introduce you to B-complex, a supplement that provides all 8 essential B vitamins. What are these vitamins and why are them important? Glad you asked! B vitamins are water-soluble vitamins that are easily absorbed by the body and must be replenished everyday. These are just some of the main functions of these vitamins:
- B1 (thiamin) -converts sugar to energy, essential for nervous system, cardiovascular and muscular function.
- B2 (riboflavin) - breaks down carbohydrates, fats and protein for use by the body, converts carbohydrates into ATP
- B3 (niacin) - helps the body make hormones in the adrenal glands and other parts of the body and is effective in improving circulation and reducing cholesterol levels in the blood.
- B5 (pantothenic acid) - essential to the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, as well as for the synthesis of hormones and cholesterol
- B6(pyridoxine) - needed for protein metabolism, essential for red blood cell metabolism, and is important for proper functioning of the nervous and immune systems.
- B12 (cobalamine) - required for proper red blood cell formation, neurological function, and DNA synthesis.
- Biotin - needed for the formation of fatty acids and glucose
- Folic Acid - helps produce and maintain new cells, especially important during infancy and pregnancy. Folate is needed to make DNA and RNA, the building blocks of cells, and helps prevent DNA changes which could cause cancer.
And here's more of the Shaklee difference in regards to B-Complex. While folic acid is not easily absorbed, Shaklee has a patented folic acid coating that makes it more accessible and bioavailable.
