Vitamin B is not a single vitamin, but rather a whole family of micronutrients that includes vitamin B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B6 (pyridoxine), B7 (biotin), B9 (folic acid) and B12 (methylcobalamin).
This vitamin group is involved in many different processes within the body. Its importance in all of these processes has led to it being one of the vitamins that has received the most research and studies. For example, PubMed, one of the leading databases of health-related scientific articles, lists more than 150,000 articles related to B vitamins.
These scientific studies examine the relationship between B vitamins and depression, energy production, aging, brain health, the nervous system, oxidative stress, sports practice, smoking, skin and hair health, and sperm quality, among other factors.
Where to get B vitamins?
B vitamins are present in certain foods such as eggs, sunflower seeds, salmon, chicken, beef, milk, oysters, some legumes, spinach, broccoli, and liver.
Looking at the list of foods rich in B vitamins, one might immediately think that a nutritional supplement based on B vitamins would be especially suitable for people who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet.
Nutritional supplements based on B vitamins can actually be taken by anyone, considering that they provide multiple benefits and are involved in different processes.
