Today,
more than ever, people realize that taking supplements has a
direct impact on their lives! And for those who drink coffee and
alcohol, eat sweets and are stressed out to the point that they
are making themselves sick, taking supplements like B-100 makes
perfect sense. With life the way it is and with what occurs in
our everyday lives B vitamins are essential for an amazing
number of our bodily functions.
The
B-complex vitamins are actually a group of eight vitamins, which
include thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pyridoxine
(B6), folic acid (B9), cyanocobalamin (B12), pantothenic acid
and biotin. Unlike minerals, B vitamins are organic (carbon
containing) molecules that are best known to function as
catalysts for chemical reactions that occur in our bodies. A
catalyst is a substance that allows a chemical reaction more
efficiently and in less time than it would take under normal
conditions. If these catalysts are missing, as in what might
occur in a vitamin deficiency, normal body functions do not
occur as they should and we can become susceptible to disease.
The natural B-complex vitamins can be found in brewer's yeast,
liver, whole-grain cereals, rice, nuts, milk, eggs, meats, fish,
fruits, leafy green vegetables and many other foods. And you
might wonder “well then, why you should I take this product as a
supplement?” The answer is simple; food just isn’t what it was
one hundred years ago. Much of what we eat today is highly
processed and in many cases can be devoid of any significant
nutrient content at all. Plus, if we do get a food that contains
any naturally occurring amounts of this vitamin complex, it
usually gets destroyed in the cooking process or by the addition
of alcohol or sugar to the meal. B-Vitamins in general are best
known to assist in carbohydrate metabolism, maintaining the
nervous system, the skin, mucous membranes, the eyes, nerve
sheaths, the GI tract, DNA, hemoglobin synthesis and liver
health, formation of blood cells and protein metabolism just to
name a few. B vitamins are also produced naturally by bacteria
within our own intestines. But again due to the nature of the
world today and the amount of antibiotics and other drugs that
are prescribed and are known to destroy B-Vitamins, it is
imperative that we look to balance the scales by finding a
quality supplemental source such as you would get from
Nutri-Force.†
