B vitamins

This section holds B-complexes and single B vitamins: B12 (cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin), B6, folate (folic acid, methylfolate), biotin and others. B12 occurs in meaningful amounts only in animal foods, so it is often chosen by vegans.

Each B vitamin has its own authorised claims in the EU; they show on a product when the dose is at least 15 % of the reference intake. High doses of B6 are not advised long-term — watch the total.

FAQ

Methylcobalamin or cyanocobalamin?

Both are vitamin B12. Compare the dose in micrograms.

What do B-50 and B-100 mean?

Complexes with 50 or 100 mg of most of the group — far above the reference intake.

Why is my urine yellow after a B-complex?

That is riboflavin (B2), harmless.

Folic acid or methylfolate?

Different forms of folate; doses are given in micrograms.

Do vegans need B12?

A supplement or fortified foods are usually advised, as B12 is found mainly in animal foods.
