B-Complex Liquid combines B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12, in a convenient great-tasting liquid form, free of artificial flavors and sweeteners. As a complex, the B vitamins are essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system and are perhaps the most important nutritional factor for healthy nerve cells. The B vitamins also play a role in the conversion of carbohydrates into energy, in the metabolism of fats and protein, and in the maintenance of muscle tone in the GI tract. The B vitamins support the integrity of the skin, hair, and liver. This balanced combination of functionally interrelated B vitamins provides wide ranging benefits, yet is specifically supportive of the nervous system.

• Vitamin B1 (thiamine HCl), processing carbohydrates, fat, and protein via it’s coenzyme form of thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP). Vitamin B1 is required to form adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the key source of energy for the body. Thiamine also promotes neural health.
• Vitamin B2 (riboflavin 5’ phosphate), metabolizing nutrients and participating in electron transport to form ATP. Riboflavin is an integral part of fatty acid catabolism and helps activate vitamin B6.
• Vitamin B3 (niacinamide), supporting cardiovascular health by mediating healthy lipid and carbohydrate metabolism.
• Vitamin B5 (calcium pantothenate), supporting cardiovascular health. Pantothenic acid is vital in the healthy production, transportation, and breakdown of lipids. Furthermore, this B vitamin promotes the production of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
• Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine HCl), supporting amino acid metabolism, nervous system health, and neurotransmitter (i.e. GABA and serotonin) synthesis, which studies have reported may help promote menstrual comfort. Furthermore, pyridoxine supports healthy red blood cells by participating in hemoglobin synthesis and some studies indicate it supports wrist nerve comfort.
• Vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin), supporting healthynerve cell activity and DNA replication. Vitamin B12 is a vital component of the methionine synthase pathway,which supports healthy homocysteine metabolism and S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) production.

These B vitamins play important roles in nearly all of the physiological systems in the body. Some of the key supportive roles include the maintenance of muscle tone in the GI tract, the functioning of the nervous system, and the integrity of skin, hair, and the liver. Furthermore, these compounds are essential for hemoglobin formation, nerve impulse transmissions, mood, hormone synthesis, and energy metabolism.
