Vitamin B Complex | 90 Tablets

Bulking agent, binder, disintegrant.

Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is a purified, partially depolymerized cellulose. It's an inert, insoluble dietary fiber that is not digested or absorbed by the body. In supplement formulations, its primary role is as a binder to hold ingredients together, a filler or bulking agent to increase tablet size, and a disintegrant to help tablets break down in the digestive tract.

Bone structure, mineral source, bulking agent.

Di Calcium Phosphate is a compound containing both calcium and phosphorus, two essential minerals for human health. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body, primarily stored in bones and teeth, providing structural integrity. Phosphorus is the second most abundant, also critical for bone and teeth formation, energy metabolism (ATP), and cell membrane structure. In supplements, it acts both as a mineral source and a pharmaceutical excipient (filler/binder).

Coenzyme A (CoA) synthesis, fatty acid synthesis and metabolism, energy production.

Vitamin B5 is a precursor to Coenzyme A (CoA), a vital coenzyme in numerous metabolic pathways. CoA is critical for the synthesis and breakdown of fatty acids, as well as for the Krebs cycle (energy production). It also plays a role in the synthesis of neurotransmitters and steroid hormones, and is involved in skin barrier function and wound healing.

Cell signaling, nerve function, fat metabolism.

Inositol (often myo-inositol) is a carbocyclic polyol that plays a crucial role in cell membrane structure and intracellular signaling pathways. It acts as a secondary messenger in various biological processes, including insulin signaling, neurotransmission (serotonin, dopamine), and gene expression. Its role in insulin sensitivity makes it beneficial for conditions like PCOS and metabolic syndrome.

Coenzyme for FAD and FMN, energy production, antioxidant.

Riboflavin is a precursor to the coenzymes FAD (Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide) and FMN (Flavin Mononucleotide). FAD and FMN are vital for various redox reactions (electron transfer) in metabolic pathways, particularly in the electron transport chain, which is central to ATP (energy) production. Riboflavin also plays a role in activating other B vitamins, maintaining healthy vision, and has antioxidant properties.

Coenzyme for NAD and NADP, energy production, DNA repair.

Vitamin B3 exists in two primary forms: niacin (nicotinic acid) and niacinamide (nicotinamide). Both are precursors to the coenzymes NAD (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) and NADP (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate), which are crucial for over 400 enzymatic reactions involved in energy metabolism (ATP production), DNA repair, and cell signaling. Niacin, at pharmacological doses, can lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while raising HDL cholesterol. Niacinamide often causes less flushing.

Amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, red blood cell formation.

Vitamin B6 acts as a coenzyme in over 100 enzymatic reactions, primarily involved in amino acid metabolism, including transamination, deamination, and decarboxylation. It's critical for the synthesis of neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and norepinephrine, influencing mood and sleep. It also plays a role in hemoglobin synthesis and immune function.

Carbohydrate metabolism, nerve function.

Thiamine is a coenzyme in several enzymatic reactions, primarily those involved in carbohydrate metabolism (e.g., pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex in the Krebs cycle). It's crucial for the production of ATP (energy) from glucose. Thiamine also plays a role in nerve impulse transmission and the synthesis of neurotransmitters.

Lubricant, anti-adherent.

Magnesium stearate is a salt formed from magnesium and stearic acid, a saturated fatty acid.

Coenzyme for carboxylase enzymes, macronutrient metabolism.

Biotin is a coenzyme for several carboxylase enzymes that play critical roles in metabolism. These enzymes are involved in gluconeogenesis (glucose synthesis), fatty acid synthesis, and the breakdown of certain amino acids. Its role in the synthesis of fatty acids is particularly relevant to skin, hair, and nail health, as these structures are rich in lipids.

DNA synthesis, cell division, red blood cell formation.

Folic acid (or folate, its natural form) is critical for DNA synthesis, repair, and methylation, and is therefore vital for cell division and growth. It plays a key role in the rapid cell division required during pregnancy, preventing neural tube defects. It also works with Vitamin B12 to produce healthy red blood cells and metabolize homocysteine, an amino acid linked to cardiovascular disease when elevated.

Red blood cell formation, nerve function, DNA synthesis.

Vitamin B12 is essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system and the formation of red blood cells. It acts as a coenzyme in two major enzymatic reactions in the body: the conversion of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA (important for fat and protein metabolism) and the conversion of homocysteine to methionine (essential for DNA synthesis and myelin sheath formation around nerves). Deficiency can lead to megaloblastic anemia and neurological damage.
