a mixture of water-soluble vitamins originally thought to be a single vitamin but now known to be a mixture of several compounds with vitaminic activity.
A large group of water soluble vitamins that function as co-enzymes, including thiamine (B1); riboflavin or vitamin G (B2); niacin or nicotinic acid (B3); pantothenic acid (B5); pyridoxine (B6); cyanocobalamin (B12); biotin or vitamin H; folic acid or vitamin M (Bc); inositol; choline; and others.
a group of vitamins including thiamine, niacin, riboflavin, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, biotin, and folic acid; plays a variety of important roles in the body, including in hormone production, metabolism, and functioning of the nerves, muscle, heart, and digestive system
Consists of several organic substances that work together in maintaining the health of all cells in the body. Thiamine, B1, is essential for proper nerve function. Riboflavin, B2, is important for the health of mucous membrane. Niacin, B3, is responsible for the health of skin, nerves and digestive tract. Pyridoxine, B6, is also important in skin and nerve health. Biotin is utilized by body processes that breakdown fats, amino acids, and carbohydrates. Pantothenic acid is important in the breakdown of fats, proteins and carbohydrates for energy. Vitamin B12 is important for the normal production of certain amino acids and fats and in the formation and maintenance of the nervous system. Folic acidâ€(tm)s main function is to maintain the cellsâ€(tm) genetic code and regulate cell division and the transfer of inherited traits from one cell to another.
Also called the B-group vitamins. A group of eight vitamins: thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), folic acid (B9), cyanocobalamin (B12), and biotin (H). These vitamins are essential for the breakdown of carbohydrates into glucose and for healthy state of skin, hair, eyes and liver.
All known water soluble vitamins except C; includes thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), pyridoxine (B6), niacin, folic acid, cobalamin (B12), pantothenic acid and biotin.
