Super B-Complex | Methylated Vitamin B complex with folate

About

Super B-Complex high potency Vitamin B complex tablets contain a synergistic blend of 8 highly bioavailable B-vitamins with vitamin C to provide comprehensive energy support.  The folate and vitamins B6 and B12 in Super B-Complex are in their most active forms and at dosages scientifically shown to maintain healthy homocysteine levels. Elevated homocysteine is a risk factor for heart disease and disrupts neurotransmitter function, affecting brain function and mood balance. Super B-Complex is particularly synergistic with our omega-3 supplements.

Each product contains 60 tablets, providing a 1-month supply at a daily dosage of 2 tablets.

• HIGH STRENGTH FORMULA: the most advanced B complex formulation with all 8 B vitamins & Vitamin C for antioxidant protection
• BIOAVAILABLE FORMS: Super B-Complex delivers maximum levels of key nutrients: 
  • ​Quatrefolic® provides the body-ready form of folate, as [6S]-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (most standard supplements contain folic acid)
  • The active form of riboflavin, riboflavin-5-phosphate
  • Vitamin B6 as pyridoxal-5-phosphate with cofactor activity
  • Vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin, for enhanced uptake
• HIGH DOSE B6, B12 & folate support efficient homocysteine metabolism and methylation pathways, for heart health & brain function
• SPLIT DOSE FOR ENHANCED ABSORPTION: vitamin B12 uptake is optimised by taking tablets twice daily, morning & evening
• SUSTAINED RELEASE: offers longer-lasting action
• CONSISTENT PRODUCT QUALITY GUARANTEED: GMP manufactured – quality standards that medicines manufacturers must meet in their production processes to ensure products are of consistent high quality

Directions for use

Adults should take 1 Super B-Complex tablet twice daily with food. Children aged 7-16 years should take 1 tablet daily. Split dosing of our vitamin B complex tablets is advised for optimal uptake and consistent intake is recommended for optimal results.

It is not advisable to exceed the recommended dose unless advised by a healthcare practitioner.

Indications

Super B-Complex is a high strength blend of eight essential B-vitamins with vitamin C designed to support the nervous system and mental performance, contribute to normal energy metabolism, aid psychological and neurological function and help reduce tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin B complex tablets play an important role in many other functions within the body, including the maintenance of normal red blood cells and normal blood cell formation, hormonal function and normal collagen synthesis.

• Vitamin B6 contributes to normal cysteine synthesis and, with folate & B12, to normal homocysteine metabolism
• Vitamin B1 contributes to the normal function of the heart
• Vitamins B2 & B7 contribute to the maintenance of normal red blood cells, and folate and vitamins B6 and B12 to normal blood cell formation
• Vitamins B2 & C contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress
• B-vitamins & vitamin C support normal psychological function
• Vitamin B12 contributes to normal neurological function
• B-vitamins & vitamin C contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system
• Vitamin B6 contributes to normal hormonal function
• Vitamin B5 contributes to normal mental performance and to the normal synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D and some neurotransmitters
• Vitamins B6 , B12, C & folate contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system
• B-vitamins & vitamin C contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system
• B-vitamins and vitamin C contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
• Vitamins B6, C & folate contribute to normal collagen synthesis and the normal function of blood vessels

Active and methylated vitamin forms explained

• Vitamin B1 helps produce energy from food; involved in DNA synthesis & supports cardiovascular function. We use thiamine hydrochloride as it is highly water-soluble and absorbed by both diffusion and active transport mechanisms
• Vitamin B2 supports cellular energy production & antioxidant activity.  We use riboflavin-5-phosphate as it is the form that’s instantly ready for the body to use – whereas plain riboflavin in most supplements needs to be converted to riboflavin-5-phosphate to be utilised. This conversion is reduced in those with digestive issues.
• Vitamin B3 supports over 200 chemical reactions in the body, including energy production & fatty acid synthesis. We use nicotinamide as it is the non-flushing form of vitamin B3 that also plays a role in inflammation regulation.

• Vitamin B5 has a crucial role in the function of the nervous system and in neurotransmitter production; it’s also involved in energy production. We use calcium D pantothenate. Pantothenic acid exists as both D and L forms but only D-pantothenic acid is biologically active, while L-pantothenic acid may inhibit the action of the D form.
• Vitamin B6 is involved in over 100 cellular reactions throughout the body. The pyridoxine form is required to metabolise amino acids and glycogen, for normal nervous system, hormone and red blood cell function.  We use pyridoxal-5-phosphate as this is the only active form of vitamin B6 offering cofactor activity. Metabolism of other forms of B6 is often compromised in humans, preventing conversion to pyridoxal-5-phosphate.
• Vitamin B7 is important for the health of hair, skin and nails and supports healthy carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism. We use D-Biotin. There are eight different forms of biotin but only D-biotin occurs naturally and has full vitamin activity.
• Folate is required for DNA synthesis, the formation of red blood cells and for the metabolism of amino acids, although better known for its critical role in pregnancy for the formation of the spinal cord and nervous system. We use [6S]-5-methyltetrahydrofolate as Quatrefolic – the body-ready form of folate which is better absorbed than folic acid and avoids undesirable accumulation in those with the MTHFR genetic mutation.
• Vitamin B12 plays a critical role in the pathways of the body that produce cellular energy – needed for DNA synthesis, red blood cell formation and for healthy nervous system function. We use methylcobalamin as this is the naturally occurring form of  B12, which is the preferred form of the central nervous system.  Methylcobalamin is also better absorbed and retained within tissues than the standard form, cyanocobalamin.
• Vitamin C is needed for the growth and repair of tissues in all parts of the body, and has antioxidant and immune-stimulating effects. We use ascorbic acid – in this case to stabilise the B-vitamins and prevent oxidation. Ascorbic acid is a standard form of vitamin C and in doses lower than 200mg is well absorbed; it’s only when taking high dose vitamin C that uptake channels become saturated and then other formulations such as ester-C are recommended.
