B Vitamins: What are they ?
Vitamin B1 - Thiamin
Thiamin is used in all key metabolic processes in the nervous system, heart, blood cells and muscles. It helps convert carbohydrates into energy and is useful in the treatment of nervous disorders. It may also be useful in treating certain types of heart disease.Vitamin B2 - Riboflavin
Riboflavin is a water soluble vitamin. Your body relies on Riboflavin for a wide range of functions, but Riboflavin is not stored in any significant quantity in the body. Riboflavin is crucial to the production of energy, helping to metabolize fats, carbohydrates and proteins.Riboflavin also helps in the production of infection-fighting immune cells, in the production of red blood cells and in the conversion of other B vitamins into their active forms. It also helps antioxidants in protecting cells from damage by highly reactive free radicals.
Vitamin B3 - Niacin
Niacin is a water soluble vitamin needed to release energy from carbohydrates. It is also essential for the creation of sex hormones, controlling blood sugar levels and for healthy nervous and digestive systems.Vitamin B5 - Pantothenic Acid
Pantothenic Acid is a water soluble vitamin that helps maintain normal growth and the health of the nervous system. It can boost energy levels and improve the immune response by encouraging the action of the lymphatic system.Vitamin B6
Vitamin B6 is a water soluble vitamin that is probably involved in more bodily processes than any other vitamin. It functions as a coenzyme, helping to speed up chemical reactions in cells. It is required by over 60 enzymes. There is evidence that it also plays a role in preventing and treating many diseases including heart disease.Some women suffering from premenstrual syndrome (PMS) find that supplementing with Vitamin B6 brings relief from their symptoms. It is thought that this is down to its role in clearing out excess oestrogen from the body.
Vitamin B6 is required for Vitamin B12 to be absorbed.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is a water solube vitamin and is the only vitamin that contains essential minerals. It is also the only B vitamin that the body stores in large quantities, in the liver.Absorption of Vitamin B12 by the body is a very complicated process. Low levels of stomach acid or low levels of intrinsic factor can lead to deficiencies, which is why people over the age of 50 may have difficulty absorbing it from food. However the body generally has good reserves of Vitamin 12.
Vitamin B12 is essential for cell replication, especially red blood cells. It maintains the protective myelin sheath around nerves, helps convert food to energy, and plays a vital role in the creation of DNA and RNA, the genetic material in cells.
Folic Acid
Folic acid is a water soluble vitamin that can protect against birth defects such as spina bifida and cleft palate.Along with Vitamin B12, folic acid appears to control the body's production and use of homocysteine. At high levels homocysteine can damage the lining of blood vessels making them more susceptible to a build up of plaque.
