B Vitamin Crash Course

B vitamins play crucial roles in numerous physiological functions, particularly energy metabolism. They are essential in the process of energy production within the cell’s mitochondria.

Energy Production Process

Energy production begins with the conversion of carbohydrates, proteins, or fats into Acetyl-CoA, which initiates the energy production process in the mitochondria. The Citric Acid Cycle (TCA/Kreb’s Cycle) and the Electron Transport Chain (ETC) are responsible for the majority of our ATP production.

Each step in these energy processes is facilitated by enzymes that require micronutrients such as magnesium, copper, zinc, vitamin C, and B vitamins.

Product Spotlights:

Benfotiamine
Benfotiamine is a fat-soluble form of Vitamin B1, offering higher bioavailability than Thiamine HCl. It remains in the system longer, providing benefits like improved glucose utilization, pyruvate dehydrogenase activation, neuroprotection, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects. It’s also beneficial for alcohol recovery and liver protection.

Niacinamide
Niacinamide, preferred over Niacin, doesn’t cause the ‘flushing’ reaction associated with inflammation. It enhances carbohydrate metabolism, lowers free fatty acids, and increases cellular NAD+ levels, making it ideal for those needing to efficiently burn carbohydrates for energy. Increased Niacinamide intake requires more methyl donors, hence Energi+ includes biologically active forms of B9 and B12.

L-5-Methyl Folate (MTHF)
L-5-MTHF is the most biologically active form of folate, supporting methylation, DNA synthesis, hormone conversion, and homocysteine regulation. It is more effective than folic acid, which many people struggle to convert into methylfolate.

Adenosylcobalamin
Adenosylcobalamin, directly used in the mitochondria for energy production, is the most effective form of B12. It bypasses the conversion required by methylcobalamin, ensuring better absorption and assistance in the energy production process.
