The B group are water- soluble substances, many of which are required by all tissues. Some of the individual B vitamins play specific roles. For ‘example, B1 (thiamin) seems to play a role in cognitive function, Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) plays a role in healing wounds and preventing migraine headaches and also reduces the risk of age-related macular degeneration. Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) is present in nearly all plant and animal foods and helps to balance our lipid levels, especially LDL and triglycerides. The most important function of the B group vitamins is acting as “co-enzymes” or “co-factors” where they facilitate amino acid metabolism and enzyme production. The pace of our 24-hour society puts pressure on our body to keep up. This puts pressure on our digestive system to absorb the nutrients.
