B vitamins for health and well-being
As an important aid to everyday stress, the body needs the B vitamin complex in sufficient quantities. A total of eight substances belong to the group. If the body is well supplied with all vitamins, health and well-being are well supported, both physically and mentally. But what makes the individual vitamins so special? What is the daily requirement of these vitamins and what results in a temporary or permanent excess requirement? What happens in the event of a deficiency or overdose? We will inform you about the most important facts about this important and essential substance.

Which substances belong to the group?
Each B vitamin is an essential nutrient that performs important functions in the body. They are water-soluble vitamins that the body can only store to a limited extent. For this reason, you should always ensure that you have a good supply of B vitamins through a balanced diet for your health.
They are divided into:
- Thiamine (vitamin B1)
- Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)
- Niacin (Vitamin B3)
- Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5)
- Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6)
- Biotin (vitamin B7)
- Folic Acid (Vitamin B9)
- Cobalamin (vitamin B12)
What functions do they have in the body?
Thiamin (B1)
Vitamin B1 – Thiamine is important for normal metabolism and is involved in the production of energy from carbohydrates and proteins. It also plays an important role in the transmission of stimuli in the nervous system.
Riboflavin (B2)
Vitamin B2 – riboflavin – plays an important role in energy balance. It contributes to the normal production of energy from glucose and fatty acids and is involved in the body's production of special proteins that are needed in the lens of the eye.
Niacin (B3)
Niacin as vitamin B3 provides the body with a basic substance for the formation of the amino acid tryptophan, which can be processed in the body into serotonin. Niacin also contributes to the normal function of the nervous system, promotes the maintenance of normal skin and mucous membranes and supports energy metabolism by reducing tiredness.
Pantothenic Acid (B5)
Pantothenic acid - vitamin B5 - is involved in the formation of numerous amino acids, such as the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. However, B5 is also responsible for the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and amino acids and is involved in numerous cell reactions. Pantothenic acid is also a component of coenzyme A, which is required for energy metabolism.
Pyridoxine (B6)
Pyridoxine – Vitamin B6 is involved in the central processes of metabolism. The vitamin supports the body in converting proteins and contributing to normal fat metabolism. In addition, the vitamin promotes the normal function of the immune system and contributes to the formation of messenger substances in the nervous system.
Biotin (B7)
Biotin is known for its effect on cell growth. It contributes to the growth of skin and hair, supports normal nerve tissue and cell division. Vitamin B7 is mainly bound to proteins in the body, activates enzymes and is involved in the formation of fatty acids and in normal metabolism.
Folic acid (B9)
Folic acid is one of the most important nutrients for the organism, as it is necessary for the formation of folate. The body produces folate from the vitamin B9 it consumes, which is necessary for vital metabolic processes such as cell division and blood formation. It is also involved in the formation of various amino acids.
Cobalamin (B12)
Cobalamin is the only B-complex vitamin that the body can store in the liver for a limited period of time, which can last for several years. Vitamin B12 is important for the normal formation of red blood cells, is involved in cell division, the development of nerve cells and various metabolic reactions.
A look at the tasks quickly reveals the overlap in the areas of responsibility for the individual B vitamins. In order for the individual substances from the B complex to perform their tasks well, they complement each other in their functions.
- Riboflavin (B2), pyridoxine (B6) and cobalamin (B12) contribute to normal red blood cell formation.
- Pyridoxine (B6), folate (B9) and cobalamin (B12) contribute to the normal function of the immune system and normal homocysteine metabolism.
- Folate (B9) and cobalamin (B12) contribute to normal cell division.
What is the daily requirement?
The B vitamin group consists entirely of water-soluble substances which are excreted from the body in the urine if an overdose occurs. With the exception of vitamin B12, the body cannot store any of the group's substances, which is why a good supply must be ensured over the long term through a balanced and varied diet.
According to the German Nutrition Society (DGE), the daily requirement is recommended as follows:
The non-specific symptoms associated with zinc deficiency make it difficult to detect the deficiency without basic laboratory tests. Zinc deficiency can also lead to reduced sense of taste and hair loss. Skin changes are also associated with the deficiency.
Vitamin | Women | women and men | Men |
---|---|---|---|
Thiamin (B1) | 1.0 ug | 1.1 – 1.3 ug | |
Riboflavin (B2) | 1.0 - 1.1 mg | 1.3 - 1.4 mg | |
Niacin (B3) | 11 - 13 mg | 14 - 16 mg | |
Pantothenic Acid (B5) | 6 mg | ||
Pyridoxine (B6) | 1.4 - 1.6 mg | 1.2 mg | |
Biotin (B7) | 30 – 60 ug | ||
Folic acid (B9) | 300 ug | ||
Cobalamin (B12) | 4 ug |
A temporary or permanent increase in the recommended daily amount can arise for various reasons. For example, athletes may have an increased need for vitamin B when building muscle, while pregnant women should pay particular attention to ensuring they have a good supply of folic acid (vitamin B9). Other influences include:
- Stress and unhealthy lifestyle
- consumption of alcohol and nicotine
- vegetarian or vegan diets and diets
- Gastrointestinal disease
- medication intake
A deficiency usually initially manifests itself with non-specific symptoms such as tiredness, forgetfulness and concentration problems, headaches, increased susceptibility to infections, loss of appetite, skin changes or irritable moods during stress due to insufficient resilience. Overdoses are not to be expected, as it is not stored in the body and excess is excreted via urine.
Why use liposomal nutritional supplements for nutrition?
Even with a balanced and varied nutrient intake, the question often arises as to whether the B vitamins can be absorbed well by the body. The digestive process begins with the saliva in the mouth, while the intestines can only absorb limited amounts and substances.
Liposomes are substances that encapsulate nutrients regardless of their solubility in water or fat, thus surrounding them with a phospholipid layer. Phospholipids are components of every cell membrane in the body. In addition, the intestine can completely absorb liposomes and absorb nutrients encapsulated in them into the body. The body is therefore familiar with liposomes, which is why liposomes work towards good bioavailability in the body.
Liposomal nutritional supplements use the absorption function of liposomes for the good delivery of vitamin B. The bioavailability of the vitamins supplied is thus improved. The body can therefore absorb the supplied nutrients, such as a selected vitamin B preparation, better and make them available to the organism than is the case with conventional nutritional supplements.
