B-Complex #3 - 60 caps | Thorne Research
Extra niacin and niacinamide in a comprehensive B-complex formula
unlike many B vitamin products, B-Complex #3 contains the active forms for enhanced bioavailability* B-Complex #3 contains an optimal balance of essential B vitamins with extra vitamin B3 as niacin and niacinamide
B-Complex #3 is yeast free without preservatives, magnesium stearate, or other lubricants and diluents made without flowing agents that can inhibit bioavailability
A component of the water-soluble vitamin B-complex, niacin (vitamin B3, nicotinic acid) is involved in numerous reactions in the body.* Niacin is essential for proper metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.* Furthermore, it is needed for alcohol detoxification; in fact, alcoholism is a prime cause of vitamin B3 deficiency.* Niacinamide may also have unique benefits in carbohydrate metabolism and the support of healthy joints.*
Thorne's B-Complex #3 supplies 20 mg niacin and 275 mg niacinamide and the bioactive forms of the other B vitamins in each capsule to ensure you get the most bioavailable B-complex available.*
B-Complex #3 also consists of a group of eight water-soluble compounds: thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), pyridoxine (vitamin B6), cobalamin (vitamin B12), folate, and biotin. Although each B vitamin is chemically distinct, they often work together in various biochemical functions throughout the body – from cellular energy production, to healthy red-blood-cell formation, to healthy neurological function.* Most B vitamins, with the exception of vitamin B12, are not stored in the body; consequently, they must be acquired daily from the diet in order to maintain optimal health.*
Supplementing with active B vitamins is extremely important to everyone, especially individuals who may not be able to convert non-active vitamins to their active forms in the liver because of compromised liver function, poorly functioning enzymes, digestive disturbances, or age.* Dietary supplements containing these active cofactors have enhanced bioavailability, ensuring the body gets the nutrients it needs.*
