Vitamin B Complex - Bioactive - With 4 Cofactors - High Potency - 180 Capsules

High-quality premium vitamin B complex with direct efficacy

The special formulation of the vitamin B complex with bioactive B vitamins ensures its direct efficacy: conversion steps in the body, as often required for synthetic vitamin forms which do not occur in nature or in the human organism, are omitted and the B vitamins are immediately available.

B vitamins are involved in numerous processes in the body. For example, vitamin B1 supports normal heart function and vitamins B2, B3, B5, B6, B9 and B12 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

For vitamin B12 the two natural and bioactive cobalamin forms methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin are used in equal parts. Adenosylcobalamin is the bioactive B12 form most commonly found in body tissues and in foods such as meat. Methylcobalamin, alongside adenosylcobalamin, is the second variant of vitamin B12 that our body requires. It is also a natural, bioactive coenzyme form and the most common form in our blood.

The high-quality branded raw material Quatrefolic® is used as the source of folate - an active form patented by Gnosis.

B vitamins in bioactive form plus cofactors - directly available to the body

The Vitamin B Complex Bioactive from Unimedica contains all eight essential B-group vitamins. The B vitamins are present in their natural (bioidentical) and bioactive forms, with the exception of vitamin B1, which is not authorised as an active form in dietary supplements. The vitamins in bioactive form are directly available to the body and do not first need to be converted into the active form within the organism. As a result, the vitamins can be used more effectively and more rapidly.

The Vitamin B Complex Bioactive is complemented by four cofactors that support the action of the B vitamins: choline, inositol, betaine and PABA act together with the B vitamins. They can be produced by the body in small amounts and possess vitamin-like properties.

For example, PABA works together with vitamin B9 (folate) as a coenzyme in blood formation. Inositol is present in cell membranes and is produced in the liver, brain and kidneys, from where it is distributed throughout the body via the blood. Among other roles, inositol functions as a secondary messenger and as part of neurotransmitters in the brain. Choline fulfils various functions in the human body and supports, for example, the liver’s enzyme systems. Betaine is another form of active choline. It plays a role in various metabolic processes.

Why do we need vitamin B?

The functions of the B vitamins in the body are closely linked. Their cooperation is required to generate energy in the cells, to form DNA and RNA, and to support brain function, the nervous system and many other important metabolic processes. These water-soluble vitamins are precursors for cofactors in enzymatic reactions. This is relevant, for example, in the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats. For this reason it is also advisable to take B vitamins as a complex so that they can exert their effects together - supported by the cofactors betaine, choline, PABA and inositol, which were formerly also classified as B vitamins. B vitamins are involved in many processes in our body. Vitamin B6, folate and vitamin B12, for example, support the immune system; biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal skin and hair. A vitamin B deficiency can therefore manifest in a variety of ways.

Where are B vitamins found in the daily diet?

B vitamins and their cofactors are found in both plant and animal foods. B vitamins are particularly present in eggs, meat, fish and milk, as well as in nuts, wholegrain products and pulses.

Why the Vitamin B Complex Bioactive from Unimedica is a sensible supplement

A balanced diet usually provides adequate amounts of these important vitamins. However, in challenging life situations our requirements increase and healthy eating often falls by the wayside, which can lead to a deficiency. Therefore, supplementation with highly dosed, bioactive B vitamins can be sensible during periods of increased need so that we feel less exhausted and tired.
