Vitamin B complex is a group of eight essential vitamins that help the body work every day.
What they do
- Turn food into energy
- Help make new cells
- Support the nervous system and brain function
- Keep the liver, skin, hair and eyes healthy
Who usually needs them
Most healthy people who eat a balanced diet get enough B complex from food. It is recommended more often for:
- Vegetarians and vegans
- Older adults
- Pregnant women
- People with conditions that affect nutrient absorption
Where to find them in food
Whole grains, eggs, dairy, leafy greens, legumes, nuts, meat and fish are good sources of B vitamins.
They are water-soluble
The body does not store most of these vitamins: it removes the excess in urine. That is why toxicity is uncommon, although some can cause side effects at very high doses.
A practical option
Supplements such as BEDOTRY provide B complex in a simple way to support energy and everyday wellness. If you have a medical condition or take medication, talk to your doctor before starting a supplement.
