We examined the effects of folic acid supplementation on blood clot events in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Analyzing data from over 2,000 patients, we divided them into daily and weekly supplementation groups for a mean follow-up of 5.8 years.
Our findings indicated that patients receiving daily folic acid had a lower rate of arteriovenous access thrombosis compared to those on a weekly regimen. However, we found no significant differences between the groups concerning major cardiovascular events or overall mortality.
More research is needed to fully understand the potential of folate in preventing thrombosis in this population.

We investigated how folic acid (FA) affects blood clotting in response to carbon black exposure. Adult mice were exposed to filtered air or carbon black for 28 days. We found that carbon black increased blood clotting and spurred the development of a certain type of blood cells in the spleen. Interestingly, while carbon black lowered folic acid levels, administering FA helped restore normal coagulation by inhibiting certain enzymes in spleen macrophages. This suggests that folic acid could be beneficial in protecting against increased clotting risks related to carbon black exposure.

In this case, we observed a 19-year-old man who developed severe peripheral neuropathy and central pulmonary embolism after using nitrous oxide recreationally. Elevated levels of homocysteine and methylmalonic acid indicated vitamin B₁₂ inactivation due to the substance. After discontinuing nitrous oxide and undergoing treatment with B vitamins for six months, the patient showed remarkable recovery, with symptoms significantly reduced. This highlights that even low levels of nitrous oxide use can lead to serious health issues, including increased blood clot risks. Awareness is crucial for young individuals who may use this substance.

This Vitamin B Complex is excellent for blood diseases. The form of methylcobalamin is well-absorbed. Although some dizziness may occur initially, it resolves over time. I plan to reorder.

Flushing symptoms noted
5 people found this helpful
I bought this product due to its excellent five-star ratings. Unfortunately, it caused severe flushing like being too close to a campfire and I struggled to breathe. My blood pressure rose dramatically, making me think I might need hospitalisation. Thankfully, after lying down for about 15 minutes, the effects subsided. Following the experience, my urine was bright fluorescent yellow.

We examined the impact of vitamin B12 deficiency on cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) through a case series involving three patients. Each case presented symptoms like headaches and, in some instances, visual disturbances. All patients showed elevated homocysteine levels and had low vitamin B12. Treatment included anticoagulation therapy and vitamin supplementation, leading to positive responses and, in two cases, resolution of thrombosis. This suggests that monitoring vitamin B12 levels, particularly in vegetarian diets, is crucial and could help prevent CVST.

Vitamin B12 aids in thromboembolism recovery
We observed a rare case of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) associated with hyperhomocysteinemia and iron-deficiency anemia due to autoimmune gastritis.
The patient, a 47-year-old woman, experienced serious symptoms like impaired consciousness and motor difficulties. After thorough examinations like CT and MRI, she was treated with anticoagulants and given iron and vitamin B12 supplements.
Remarkably, the patient showed significant improvement and was discharged without neurological deficits, highlighting the potential role of vitamin B12 and iron in managing conditions linked to blood clots.

Improved blood circulation
3 people found this helpful
Excellent! I take this complex of B vitamins for the second time, for myself and my mother, who has blood vessel issues. The improvement in blood circulation is felt almost immediately, with prolonged use enhancing the condition of skin and hair. Additionally, this complex has a diuretic effect, so I recommend taking it in the morning or daytime, but not before bed. It also enhances appetite and digestion, making food assimilation easier. Caution is advised with prolonged use due to potential excess of B vitamins. Overall, there's a positive effect on the nervous system and skin healing, possibly aiding recovery during colds by improving blood circulation.

Excellent pregnancy support
1 people found this helpful
I recommend this dietary supplement for its effect on my psychological state, enhancing stress resistance and mood, alongside improving blood counts. We monitored my homocysteine levels—critical during and outside of pregnancy—which significantly improved thanks to this product. It is vital for proper fetal development to use folic acid, B6, and B12, all included in this complex.

Increased blood pressure
2 people found this helpful
It didn’t suit me, apparently due to the niacin (B3), which dilates blood vessels. Initially, it was fine, but the following day my blood pressure surged. As someone with hypertension, I found that after taking this vitamin complex, my blood pressure increased sharply. The subsequent doses did not provide the same beneficial effect as the first intake.

Essential for mutations

I call fellow users "mutants" for their folate cycle mutations. This vitamin is vital for those like me with specific gene mutations affecting B9 and B12 absorption. I now monitor my homocysteine and control blood clotting better since I began this regimen.

Increased blood circulation
2 people found this helpful
The complex has a decent composition, but there’s niacinamide (B3), which can cause reactions like skin reddening and increased heartbeat, lasting 15-20 minutes. While discomforting, increased blood circulation is a potential benefit. If taken after a heavy meal, the likelihood of reaction may decrease.

Blood circulation boost
1 people found this helpful
Initially, when I took two capsules on an empty stomach, I experienced a niacin flush with spots on my arm, but this resolved within 30 minutes. I switched to one capsule and monitored the situation, noting an improvement in my blood circulation. I intend to continue this regime, as I feel physically well.

Tachycardia risk

It didn’t work for me, possibly due to the high dosages of vitamin B. After half an hour, I experienced tachycardia and blood pressure increased.
