Description
The B Vitamins help with the healthy functioning of the nerves, skin, eyes, hair, liver, and mouth. Muscle tone in the gastrointestinal tract and proper brain function are also directly related to the B Vitamins. B Vitamins are particularly important to the elderly as these nutrients are not as well absorbed as we age. There have been recent studies linking deficiencies of B Vitamins (particularly B-12) and the B Complex vitamins and Alzheimers disease.
Comments....
- B1 (Thiamine) -- Antibiotics, sulfa drugs and oral contraceptives decrease thiamine levels in the body. A high-carbohydrate diet also increases the need for Thiamine.
-
- B2 (Riboflavin) -- Oral contraception and strenuous exercise affect Riboflavin levels in the body. Riboflavin is easily destroyed by alcohol, antibiotics and light
- B6 (Pyridoxine) -- Estrogen therapy, anti-depressants, and oral contraceptives may increase the need for Pyridoxine. Diuretics and cortisone drugs affect the absorption of B6 in the body
- B12 (Cyanocobalamin) -- Anticoagulants, anti-gout medications, and potassium supplements may block the absorption of B12 in the body. Vegetarians need B12 supplements as Cyanocobalamin is found primarily in animal sources
- Biotin -- Antibiotics, sulfa drugs, saccharin, raw egg whites, and fats and oils that have been subjected to high heat affect Biotin levels and absorption in the body
- Folic Acid -- Oral contraceptives may increase the need in the body for Folic acid. Alcohol affects the absorption of Folic acid in the body. Inositol -- Large amounts of caffeine may affect the levels of Inositol in the body
- Para-Aminobenzoic Acid (PABA) -- Sulfa drugs may cause levels of Para Aminobenzoic acid to be lowered

B Vitamins are water soluble, meaning any excess is not stored but excreted or lost through perspiration - thus, the B Vitamins must be supplied as the body needs them, on a regular basis. Thiamin toxicity is uncommon as excess is readily excreted.
The B-Compound vitamins are probably the single most important set of factors needed for proper maintenance of the nervous system, proper functioning of the cell and its energy metabolism. Any kind of mental or physical stress as well as poor eating habits greatly increase the body's need for B Vitamins. | | | | | | |
