B-Vitamins

The B-vitamins are essential for normal metabolic functions and are necessary for the conversion of carbohydrate, protein and fat in to tissue and energy. The B-vitamins are water-soluble and therefore are not significantly stored by the body. Any excess quantities are excreted in the urine.

B-vitamins must be replenished regularly through your diet to maintain essential tissue levels. Tissue levels of these vitamins are rapidly depleted in conditions that interfere with their intake or absorption.
