Now Foods, Vitamin B-50 Complex, 100 Veg Capsules

Nervous System Health

B-Complex for Maximum Effectiveness

Supports Energy Production

Non-GMO

Vegetarian/Vegan

B-50 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.

Suggested Use

Take 1 capsule daily with a meal.
