Great B Complex
I was taking B5 and B12 individually but read that too much of one or two of the Bs can negatively impact natural levels of other B's in your system. So I thought I'd try a B complex - I'm glad I did. This one is convenient and seems to be very effective (I use it to help treat Meniere's disease). I was getting B12 shots for awhile because I always felt better for a day or two after the shot. I think my system absorbed the B12 better that way - I never really felt like I was getting the same boost from the B12 pills. I almost tried B12 patches but after taking this B-50 pill I'm finally starting to feel some of the energy boost I used to get from the shots. I think my system is processing the B12 better when taken with the other B vitamins. And yes, this one includes Cyanocobalamin based B12 but from my research it has been shown to be just as effective as the more expensive forms of B12 and while there is a trace amount of cyanide in this form the cyanide compound you find in Cyanocobalamin in the exact same as one finds in almonds, apple seeds, lima beans, and other foods that we eat all the time and at the same or lower level. I really don't see any value in spending more for methylcobalamin form B12. They don't list the components of the product here on Amazon so here it is from Now Foods' website: Thiamine (from Thiamine HCl) (Vitamin B-1) 50 mg 3333% Riboflavin (Vitamin B-2) 50 mg 2941% Niacin (as Niacinamide) (Vitamin B-3) 50 mg 250% Vitamin B-6 (from Pyridoxine HCl) 50 mg 2500% Folate (Folic Acid) 400 mcg 100% Vitamin B-12 (as Cyanocobalamin) 50 mcg 833% Biotin 50 mcg 17% Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B-5) 50 mg 500% PABA 50 mg Choline (from Choline Bitartrate) 50 mg Inositol 50 mg Other Ingredients: Cellulose, Stearic Acid (vegetable source), Croscarmellose Sodium, Magnesium Stearate (vegetable source), Silica and Vegetable Coating
