Fatigue can be a symptom of a multitude
of illnesses, including fibromyalgia,
as well as simply overdoing things; however,
a B complex vitamin can help alleviate
general tiredness and lethargy. Additionally,
if a person has been unwell, or suffers
from symptoms associated with fibromyalgia,
a B complex vitamin can be extremely valuable
in aiding the recovery process.
Fibromyalgia Symptoms and
B Vitamins
The B complex vitamins are extremely beneficial for
a number of conditions, including fibromyalgia and
may be needed in additional quantities at certain
times in a person's life. Many health care professionals
are now discovering the benefits of taking a B complex
vitamin to help overcome certain illnesses.
Each B vitamin is capable of performing its own individual
function within the body, but when they work together
as a complex of vitamins, they help provide essential
maintenance necessary for the body to remain healthy.
Additionally, fibromyalgia sufferers may find a B
complex vitamin helpful for stress and anxiety.
Research has found that a B complex vitamin can be
beneficial in helping alleviate the symptoms of anxiety
and stress that many people suffer from, including
those with fibromyalgia. People who are chronically
stressed often have low levels of B vitamins, which
can lead to depression, irritability, and improper
nerve function. The family of B vitamins is comprised
of nutrients that help support the immune system,
the nervous system, and healthy skin and hair that
are generally affected by stressful conditions.

The Benefits of Vitamin B
B-vitamins are essential components of numerous key
enzyme systems, without which the body cannot function.
Each B-vitamin fills a different complementary need,
which is why they should most often be taken together.
B-vitamins act as coenzymes, helping enzymes to react
chemically with other substances, and are involved
in energy production.
The family of B vitamins can help maintain the health
of the nerves, skin, eyes, hair, liver, and mouth,
as well as healthy muscle tone in the gastrointestinal
tract and proper brain function.
About Vitamin B-50 Complex
There are eight water soluble vitamins
that make up a B complex formula. They are
thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3),
pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6),
cobalamin (B12), biotin, paba. Choline and
inositol are considered “silent”
B vitamins and are generally included in
a B complex formulation. The body cannot
store these water soluble nutrients; therefore,
a regular intake may be required.
Each B complex vitamin is capable of performing
its own individual function within the body,
but when they work together as a complex
of vitamins, they help provide essential
maintenance necessary for the body to remain
healthy. The B complex vitamins are extremely
beneficial for a number of conditions and
may be needed in additional quantities at
certain times in a person's life. Many health
care professionals are now discovering the
benefits of taking a B complex vitamin to
help overcome certain illnesses.
B-Vitamins Defined
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin)
- required for cell growth and release of
energy, formation of red blood cells, and
synthesis of antibodies.
Vitamin B3 (niacin)
- stabilizes cell membranes, insures proper
circulation, and maintains healthy skin.
Aids in the function of the nervous system
and helps to reduce cholesterol.
Vitamin B5 (panthothenic
acid) - a non toxic nutrient needed to breakdown
fat to covert into energy. An anti-stress
vitamin.
Vitamin B6 - needed
for the synthesis of neurotransmitters such
as serotonin and dopamine. These neurotransmitters
are required for normal nerve cell communication.
Vitamin B12 -
helps maintain healthy nerve cells and red
blood cells. Works in close partnership
with folic acid in synthesis of the building
blocks for DNA and RNA. Essential for the
integrity of the maintenance of the nervous
system and for the production of energy
producing molecules.
Folic Acid (folate)
- a non-toxic nutrient that protects our
chromosomes from DNA damage. Also helps
with depression and the prevention of neural
tube defects in newborns.
Biotin - is involved
in the synthesis of fatty acids, energy
production, and cell growth. Some preliminary
studies suggest that this nutrient may help
improve glucose metabolism.
Paba (para amino
benzoic acid) - a member of the vitamin
B-complex that has been used in conditions,
such as infertility (female), Peyronie's
disease, scleroderma, graying hair, and
vitiligo (white patches on skin). It is
also used on the skin in sunscreens.
Choline - used
to treat high cholesterol, improve memory,
protect the liver and gallbladder, and helps
support nerve transmission.
Inositol - a direct
precursor of phospholipids which are a major
component of cellular membranes. It also
acts as a lipotropic which converts fats
into other useful products. inositol helps
establish healthy cell membranes, which
facilitates nerve impulses and has been
shown to be helpful for depression.
