Eight vitamins, many roles
What the B vitamins are responsible for
B vitamins work closely together in metabolism. The overview shows which functions the individual vitamins contribute to according to authorised claims.

Each tick stands for an authorised health claim under Regulation (EU) No 432/2012: Energy = contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism. Nerves = contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system. Psyche = contributes to normal psychological function. Fatigue = contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Immune system = contributes to the normal function of the immune system. Skin = contributes to the maintenance of normal skin. A dash means: not listed in this overview. Amounts per daily serving (2 capsules).
Good to know
B vitamins in everyday life
The eight B vitamins are chemically very different, but are grouped together because of their shared role in metabolism.
Small stores, regular requirements
B vitamins are water-soluble. The body stores only limited amounts of most of them, which is why a regular intake through the diet is important. Vitamin B12, on the other hand, can be stored in the liver for long periods.
Vitamin B12 in a vegan diet
Vitamin B12 is found in significant quantities almost exclusively in animal-based foods. The German Nutrition Society (DGE) recommends taking vitamin B12 supplements on a long-term basis for those following a vegan diet. Intake from food can also decrease in older age.
Folate often in short supply
In the German National Nutrition Survey II (2005 to 2007), many adults did not reach the recommended intake for folate through their diet. Good sources are green leafy vegetables, pulses and wholegrains.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin
Our daily serving of two capsules contains 4.1 µg of vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and normal functioning of the nervous system.
What is methylcobalamin?
Methylcobalamin is one of the two forms that the body uses as a coenzyme. It is sensitive to light, so the jar should be kept tightly closed in a dark place.
What forms of vitamin B12 are there?
In the EU, four forms are authorised as sources of vitamin B12 in food supplements: methylcobalamin, adenosylcobalamin, hydroxocobalamin and cyanocobalamin. We have opted for methylcobalamin.
How is B12 produced?
Neither plants nor animals can produce vitamin B12 themselves; only certain microorganisms can. It is therefore produced for use in food supplements through fermentation using bacteria.
Dosage explained
What you should know about combining supplements
To help you understand the quantities correctly, here are the key points at a glance.
What’s in two capsules
All eight B vitamins are present in amounts exceeding their nutrient reference values; the exact figures are listed in the nutritional table.
BfR proposed maximum levels
The German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) proposes maximum levels per daily dose for food supplements. For vitamin B6 and folic acid, our daily serving is above these; for nicotinamide, it is above the value the BfR gives for pregnant women. The proposals are not legally binding. They do show, however, that you should not take these vitamins additionally via other supplements. BfR proposed maximum levels
Do not double up
Multivitamin and magnesium products also often contain B vitamins, in our range for example the multivitamin complex and the magnesium 4-fold complex with vitamin B6. Add up the amounts and only combine several supplements after consulting a doctor.

Diet first
Where to find B vitamins
A varied diet is the foundation. These food groups make a particularly significant contribution to your intake.
Wholegrains, oats & pulses
Provide, among others, vitamin B1, vitamin B6, niacin and folate. Lentils, chickpeas and oat flakes are good everyday sources.
Green vegetables
Spinach, kale, broccoli and lamb’s lettuce are important sources of folate. Folate is sensitive to heat; brief cooking preserves it.
Nuts, seeds & mushrooms
Sunflower seeds, peanuts and mushrooms provide, amongst other things, biotin, niacin, pantothenic acid and vitamin B2.
Animal-based foods
Meat, fish, eggs and dairy products provide vitamin B12 and vitamin B2. Unfortified plant-based foods are not a reliable source of vitamin B12; fortified products can help meet your requirements.

Frequently asked questions about the vitamin B complex
According to the recommended daily intake, take two capsules daily, whole, with plenty of water. You can choose any time of day; many people take them in the morning with breakfast.
One jar contains 90 capsules, which is 45 daily servings of two capsules each. At two capsules a day, it lasts 45 days. All amounts in the nutrition information refer to this daily serving.
Simply take two capsules as usual the next day. Do not make up for a missed serving. Don’t take more than two capsules a day.
Methylcobalamin is one of the two forms that the body uses as a coenzyme. That is why we have chosen this compound. All forms of B12 authorised in the EU are sources of vitamin B12.
A B-complex contains all eight B vitamins in a single daily serving, while a B12 supplement contains only vitamin B12, often in significantly higher amounts. Which is right for you depends on whether you wish to supplement your B vitamins in general or specifically target vitamin B12, for example if you follow a vegan diet.
The B-complex is intended for regular use in accordance with the recommended daily intake. Stick to the daily serving of two capsules and take any other supplements you’re taking into account. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions or are taking medication regularly, discuss taking this supplement with your doctor.
The recommended daily intake is two capsules a day; the daily serving and the percentage values are based on this. You can see how much is in a single capsule in the nutrition table under the ‘1 capsule’ column. So yes, in principle you can take just one capsule.
A reliably formulated vitamin B12 supplement is essential for a vegan diet. The amount and type of supplement that’s right for you depend on your diet and your vitamin B12 status. Your doctor can check your status using appropriate laboratory tests.
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) can cause your urine to turn a bright yellow colour after taking it. This discolouration is normally harmless. If you notice unusual discolouration or experience any additional symptoms, please have the cause investigated.
Our multivitamin complex already contains all eight B vitamins. Together you would roughly double the amounts, and for vitamin B6 and folic acid go well beyond the BfR proposed maximum levels. A combination therefore only makes sense after consulting a doctor.
We do not recommend this product for pregnant women. It contains niacin (nicotinamide) in an amount that the BfR does not recommend for pregnant women. There are specially formulated supplements available for pregnancy and breastfeeding, such as those containing folic acid and iodine. It is best to discuss the appropriate supplement with your doctor.
Some medicines affect the balance of individual B vitamins, for example metformin or stomach acid blockers affect the absorption of vitamin B12. If you take methotrexate, agree any additional folic acid with your treating doctor. If you take medication regularly, discuss taking this product with your doctor or pharmacist beforehand.
Biotin can distort certain laboratory test results, particularly in high doses. You should therefore inform the staff before a blood test that you are taking a biotin-containing supplement.
Yes. The capsules contain buckwheat sprout powder and a plant-based capsule shell made from hydroxypropyl methylcellulose.
A powder made from sprouted buckwheat. It forms the basis of the capsule filling. The amounts of the eight B vitamins contained in a daily serving are listed in the nutritional table.
The vitamin B complex is intended for adults. The dosage is not intended for children and adolescents. The note on this reads: For adults; not recommended for pregnant women.
Store in a cool, dry place, protected from light and out of the reach of young children. You will find the best-before date on the base of the jar.

ich trinke täglich ca. 1 Esslöffel davon oder gebe die Menge meinem Frühstück hinzu (ohne erhitzen!), aufgrund der vielen polyphenole enorm wertvoll für eine gesunde fettaufnahme

Ich habe das erste mal bestellt bei euch
Ich habe das erste mal bestellt bei euch, Lieferung kam zügig, die Kapseln haben genau die Dosierung die ich täglich benötige. 5000 IE D3 plus 200my K2. Die Kapseln reichen für 90 Tage, so muss ich nicht so oft bestellen. Zur Wirkung kann ich nicht viel sagen, da ich schon seit Jahren D3 nehme und seit dem auch nie mehr krank war. Die Kapseln sind einfach zu schlucken. Also alles gut.
