B vitamins help to sustain the health of the skin, hair, nerves, mouth and eyes. Many of the vitamins in the B Vitamin Complex aid in the metabolism of fat, carbohydrates and proteins. They are also vital ingredients necessary to produce red blood cells. Because the B-complex vitamins work with each other and with other nutrients, it is important that they be taken together in order to aid other nutrients in their bodily functions.

Each B vitamin has a unique function and they are all necessary for amino acid metabolism, cell division, energy production and much more.

Vitamin C plays a necessary role for your general health. It is water soluble so the body cannot store it. You need it on a daily basis through either through diet or supplementation.

Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) is an important water-soluble B-complex vitamin that is often deficient in the diet. It helps iron function properly and it regulates red blood cell formation. It works in conjunction with Vitamin B12 and C to metabolize protein. Folic Acid helps to form the nucleic acid of RNA and DNA. It is a vital nutrient for women who are pregnant or may be pregnant. It plays a crucial role in fetus development and may help prevent birth defects. If taken months in advance of conception, it may reduce the occurrence of neural tube defects (NTDs) by as much as 70%.

Along with Vitamins B6 and B12, it helps to break down homocysteine, a harmful amino acid. Higher levels of homocysteine are often associated with osteoporosis, heart disease and strokes.
