Overview

B Complex Plus delivers a wide range of B vitamins, many in their active and bioavailable forms, at very high potencies. While this ensures effective coverage for B vitamin functions, the extreme dosages for some vitamins might be excessive for general use, potentially leading to unnecessary exposure without additional benefits beyond a certain threshold. The inclusion of Shilajit is at a very low dose relative to commonly studied effective amounts.

The Good

Utilizes active and bioavailable forms of B vitamins, such as methylcobalamin and L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate, which are beneficial for individuals with MTHFR variations or impaired B vitamin metabolism.

Comprehensive B vitamin profile supports multiple physiological functions including energy production, nerve function, and red blood cell formation.

High doses of certain B vitamins can effectively address severe deficiencies or increased needs.

The Bad

Extremely high doses of several B vitamins (Niacin, Biotin, Pantothenic Acid) far exceed typical daily requirements and can lead to side effects or interfere with medical tests.

Niacin at 95mg can cause flushing and may increase insulin resistance with prolonged use.

Biotin at 750mcg can significantly interfere with laboratory diagnostic tests, leading to inaccurate results.
