Background:
As coenzymes (help enzymes carry out chemical reactions) B-vitamins are essential nutrients involved in most metabolic reactions. They play an important role in energy production, particularly from the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. These essential nutrients are also important for the production of healthy cells, hormones, neurotransmitters and other vital biochemicals. They are needed for healthy nerve, heart, brain, muscle and other important cell/tissue function. The B-vitamins are water-soluble and therefore, not stored to any significant extent in the body. This is why we need to ensure adequate intakes of these nutrients on a daily basis. Due to the excess consumption of refined and processed foods, the average person does not consume optimal amounts of these nutrients. Our B-Complex-50 and B-Complex-100 provide moderate to high amounts of essential B-Complex vitamins.
Features:
Available in B-Complex 50 and B-Complex 100 strengths.
B-Complex 50 provides a moderate-potency and B-Complex 100 a high-potency, full spectrum B-vitamin supplement which helps support many different biochemical and physiological processes.
B-complex contains USP grade nutrients and, therefore, meets strict standards for purity and potency.
Benefits
Thiamin, riboflavin and niacin are essential for the production of energy from food. They also help support, nerve and heart function and help the body produce antioxidants.*
Vitamin B6 is needed to make neurotransmitters, chemicals that are essential for normal, healthy brain and nervous system function. B6 also helps support the metabolism of amino acids, individual components found in protein foods.*
Vitamin B12 and folic acid are both needed to make healthy blood cells, by supporting DNA and RNA metabolism and both help support normal, healthy levels of homocysteine; a recognized cardiovascular “toxin”.*
Pantothenic acid is needed to produce energy from fats, carbohydrates and proteins, while biotin is essential for the metabolism of fatty acids and glucose and assists in cellular energy production.*
Choline is needed to help support the production of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and serves as an important cofactor in healthy liver detoxification processes.*
Inositol serves as a signaling molecule helping to “direct” cellular function while PABA serves as a component of folic acid.*
Oftentimes it is difficult to meet the recommended daily requirements for all essential nutrients. Taking a comprehensive multivitamin mineral formula on a daily basis is one way to ensure you receive all of the essential vitamins and minerals that are critical for maintaining health and wellness. Our Vita-Min 75 is a comprehensive high-potency multivitamin/mineral formula which provides high levels of most essential nutrients including the B-complex vitamins as well as vitamins A, C, D and E. This formula includes patented and trademarked ingredients, all of which are backed by scientific studies demonstrating their efficacy and safety.*

Product # 373: Coenzyme-B-50 Complex
Background:
B-vitamins are required for numerous biochemical and physiological processes including the metabolism of macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats and proteins) to make energy, support of healthy nervous system function and for cardiovascular function.* Typically B-vitamins are used as needed and any excess is excreted. This makes it very important to consume these essential nutrients on a daily basis. Once B-vitamins are consumed they cannot perform their necessary functions until they are converted into their active coenzyme forms. Aging, chronic disease and other factors may limit one’s ability to convert B-vitamins into their coenzyme forms. Our Coenzyme-B50 Complex provides the active coenzyme forms of several essential B-vitamins. This bypasses the need for conversion, improves absorption, bioavailability and function.*
Features:
High potency B-complex vitamin.
Contains additional B-complex vitamins in their coenzyme form.
Improved absorption and bioavailability.
Benefits:
Provides the coenzyme forms of thiamin, riboflavin, B6, pantothenic acid and B12. This offers enhanced absorption, bioavailability and biological activity of these nutrients.*
B-vitamins take part in numerous biochemical reactions, mostly related to the production of energy through nutrient metabolism. The metabolism of carbs, fat and protein requires B-vitamins in their coenzyme forms.*
Coenzyme B-vitamins do not require metabolic conversion, and therefore may offer an advantage to certain populations such as the elderly, those with metabolic diseases such as diabetes, and many others.*
Optimizing B-Vitamin Utilization with Alchepharma's Coenzymated B-Complex: A Potential Intervention for Enhanced Energy and Wellbeing
Introduction: B vitamins are essential micronutrients involved in diverse biological processes, impacting energy production, neurological function, and general well-being. However, individual variations in absorption and conversion can limit their effectiveness. Here, we explore the scientific rationale behind Alchepharma's Coenzymated B-Complex, a novel formulation designed to overcome these limitations and deliver optimal B-vitamin benefits.
Challenges with Traditional B Vitamins: Traditional B vitamins require metabolic conversion before active utilization. This process can be hindered by genetic factors, particularly MTHFR polymorphisms, affecting approximately 30% of the population. Additionally, age-related declines in intrinsic factor can further compromise B12 absorption.
The Advantage of Methylated B Vitamins: Alchepharma's Coenzymated B-Complex leverages fully methylated B vitamins, bypassing the conversion step for significantly faster and more complete absorption. This approach holds particular promise for individuals with MTHFR variations or compromised absorption.
Beyond Essential B Vitamins: This formula transcends a basic B-complex by incorporating synergistic nutrients like Choline, Inositol, PABA, and Alpha Lipoic Acid. Choline and Inositol contribute to neurotransmitter synthesis and membrane health, while PABA supports folate metabolism. Alpha Lipoic Acid, a potent antioxidant, enhances B-vitamin activity and offers additional cellular protection.
Scientific Support for Methylated B Vitamins: Growing evidence suggests numerous benefits associated with methylated B vitamins, including:
Improved energy levels and reduced fatigue: Studies demonstrate enhanced cellular energy production and metabolic efficiency upon B-vitamin supplementation.
Enhanced cognitive function and memory: B vitamins play crucial roles in neurotransmitter synthesis and neuronal signaling, potentially improving cognitive performance and memory consolidation.
Elevated mood and reduced stress: B vitamins support the production of mood-regulating neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, potentially contributing to emotional well-being and stress management.
Support for healthy homocysteine levels: Elevated homocysteine is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. B vitamins, particularly B12 and folate, play a critical role in homocysteine metabolism, offering potential cardiovascular benefits.
Potential benefits for nerve function: B vitamins are essential for maintaining healthy nerve sheaths and supporting nerve signal transmission. Studies suggest potential benefits for neuropathy and nerve health maintenance.
Quality and Safety: Alchepharma's Coenzymated B-Complex adheres to rigorous quality standards, being vegan-friendly, gluten-free, and free of artificial ingredients. Furthermore, it is manufactured in a GMP-certified facility, ensuring safety and consistent quality.
Conclusion: Alchepharma's Coenzymated B-Complex offers a scientifically founded approach to B-vitamin supplementation, incorporating methylated forms for enhanced absorption and additional synergistic nutrients for comprehensive support. While individual needs may vary, this formula holds promise for individuals seeking to optimize their energy levels, cognitive function, and overall well-being, particularly those with MTHFR polymorphisms or compromised B-vitamin absorption.

B-Complex for Maximum Effectiveness
Supports Energy Production*
B-100 Caps provide a full complement of B-vitamins plus choline and inositol. These vitamins work to support energy production, maintain healthy homocysteine metabolism, and promote the health of the nervous system.* B-vitamins are water soluble, and with the exception of B-12, have limited storage in the body and thus require daily replenishment. While B-12 is stored in the liver, dietary sources are of animal origin only (meat and dairy) and supplementation with B-12 may be especially important for vegetarians.
