B-Complex

•Supports nervous system functions.
•Aids in digestive functions.
•Enhances enzyme reactions controlling energy, circulation, hormones and overall health.

               Many different vitamin B compounds are grouped under the name B-complex. Being soluble in water, the B vitamins are constantly being flushed from the body and must be replaced often, at least daily.  There is no risk of overdose with B vitamins, or any water soluble vitamins because the body excretes what it is not using.  This is why it is so important to replace the B vitamins on a regular basis.  Water soluble vitamins do not need to be taken with a meal in order to be absorbed however, they are more easily lost during cooking, storage, and refining.  Many people are deficient in one or more of the B vitamins due to the refining and packaging of foods.  In addition to the normal excrement of B vitamins, coffee, alcohol, birth-control pills, antibiotics, chemotherapy drugs, seizure drugs, ulcer drugs, and steroids can also lead to deficiency.  Prolonged stress can create a greater need for the B vitamins.  

               B vitamins are particularly important for the nervous system. They are also vital for good digestive function and enzyme reactions that control energy, circulation, hormones and overall health. Their actions are interdependent, so for greatest efficiency the complex should be taken together.
