Description:
Dietary Supplement. Stress. Foundational. Energy. Gluten Free. Basic B Complex. Unlike Many B Vitamin Products. Basic B Complex Contains the Active Forms for Enhanced Bioavailability Basic B Complex Contains an Optimal Balance of Essential B Vitamins Basic B Complex is Yeast Free Basic B Complex consists of a group of eight water-soluble compounds: thiamine (vitamin B1). riboflavin (vitamin B2). niacin (vitamin B3). pantothenic acid (vitamin B5). pyridoxine (vitamin B6). cobalamin (vitamin B12). folate. and biotin. Although each B vitamin is chemically distinct. they often work together in various biochemical functions throughout the body – from cellular energy production. to healthy red-blood-cell formation. to healthy neurological function. Most B vitamins. with the exception of vitamin B12. are not stored in the body; consequently. they must be acquired daily from the diet in order to maintain optimal health. Supplementing with active B vitamins is extremely important to everyone. especially individuals who may not be able to convert non-active vitamins to their active forms in the liver because of compromised liver function. poorly functioning enzymes. digestive disturbances. or age. Dietary supplements containing these active cofactors have enhanced bioavailability. ensuring the body gets the nutrients it needs. Thorne Research’s Basic B Complex contains the entire B-complex. including the activated forms of vitamin B2 (riboflavin 5′-phosphate). vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5′-phosphate). folic acid (L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate). and vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin). as well as 80 mg choline citrate. Although choline is often grouped with the B vitamin family. it is not officially a B vitamin.

Better form of Vitamin B-6. On the 13th Month of January 2018; The only B complex I’ve found that contains the active form (P-5-P) of vitamin B-6. The cheaper form of B-6 (Pyridoxine HCL) makes me really tired. Also, Thorne supplements do not contain magnesium stearate, a waxy filler often made from cottonseed oil, which I am allergic to.

High availability. On the 8th Month of May 2018; We use several Thorne products and find them all well-researched (by Thorne) in terms of getting the best mix of vitamins and minerals to support the effectiveness of the main ingredient. We selected this B complex because of the balanced mix, and reasonable doses, not mega-doses, and Thorne’s commitment to quality. I have one first thing each morning, helps me get going, and another around noon if its been a stressful day.

Nice product. On the 20th Month of December 2018; I like this product. My understanding is that the vitamins contained with the product are the more bio-available variants. This Brand is recommended in the book “Drug Muggers:…”. I was a bit concerned that some of the vitamins were so much higher than the recommended daily allowances, but having done a bit of reading on that I am happy that the quantities are safe. I’m even more confident that the product is well thought out. Being in Australia, postage can be quite expensive but that is not the case with ; and the product was delivered very quickly too.
