Ouyang (Dashu Bibi) talks about vitamin B family

Why supplement vitamin B "family"

I have talked about vitamin C before. Have you noticed that when we generally talk about vitamin B, we mean vitamin B family, and no one talks about vitamin C family? . Why is it the B group? I think there are two reasons:

First, vitamin B is indeed a large family. We currently know that there are 12 commonly used ones. There are also some that are still being discovered or whose names have been changed.

Second, it is becoming increasingly clear. If a person suffers from B vitamin deficiency symptoms, it is not possible for him to be deficient in just one B vitamin, but to be deficient in all B vitamins.

Research has found that every cell in the human body requires equal amounts of B vitamins. In other words, B vitamins are evenly distributed in all tissues. If the diet is unreasonable, every tissue will be deficient in B vitamins. Because all cells require equal amounts of B vitamins.

Therefore, once this deficiency is not even noticed, it has already caused serious damage to the body. It is not just a disease in a certain organ of your body. For example, if there is a visual problem, it is the degeneration of the entire body.

This kind of physical disease caused by lack of vitamin B complex. It is difficult for adults to realize. It's easy to notice in teenagers because it causes slow growth!

So, if a person has symptoms of vitamin B deficiency, it is impossible to be deficient in only one type of B vitamin, but only in lack of all B vitamins.

It's just that the degree and type of deficiency symptoms vary from individual to individual. For example, beriberi is caused by a lack of vitamin b1, but if you lack b1 in your diet, you may not have beriberi. In fact, beriberi is caused by a lack of all B vitamins, but the lack of vitamin B1 is more obvious!

Why do we emphasize this point? Because any member of the vitamin B family can be taken out to give a lecture alone! When talking about one of the members individually, you have to understand that the symptoms of lack of this member are more obvious. When supplementing nutrients, supplementing it alone will not solve the problem.

What’s interesting is that the members of the B family check and balance each other and at the same time amplify each other. For example, it's like a gunpowder recipe. If the ratio of charcoal, sulfur powder, and nitrate is wrong, it won't work!

The same goes for the B vitamins. B1 will affect the absorption of b2, b2 will affect the absorption of b6, and b6 will in turn affect the absorption of b1. If the proportions are wrong, they will become a mess and hold each other back.

If the ratio is appropriate, the effect will not be as simple as one plus one plus one, but like a dynamite pack. Therefore, there are relatively few B vitamins on the market, and there are many single formulas. It is difficult to achieve this golden ratio!

So living in Melaleuca is a very happy thing! Such a good single B vitamin - Vilido.

B vitamins are water-soluble vitamins. In other words, it only exists in the body for a few hours. What is absorbed by the tissue is absorbed, and what is not absorbed is excreted in the urine.

This is also the reason why urine is yellow when supplementing vitamin B complex, because of the vitamin b2 riboflavin in it. Because the body's daily demand for vitamin B2 is very low, only a few milligrams are needed. Well, in order to achieve the right ratio in the formula, there is no way to mix it casually with at least 20mg. The excess will cause the urine to turn yellow!

Generally speaking, you can know your B vitamin deficiency by looking at your tongue! Generally, people with tongue lesions will experience uncomfortable symptoms such as flatulence and indigestion in their gastrointestinal tract!

Most modern people lack B vitamins. During World War II, the British wheat supply was in short supply. It was necessary to use high-yield whole wheat flour to reduce waste.

British nutrition has improved greatly!

After the war ended, the food supply returned to normal, and bread made of white flour began to be eaten again. The number of deaths from various diseases increased significantly!

In other words, the rice and noodles we eat now are all refined, and our daily food is no longer rich in B vitamins. To put it bluntly, beggars in the past were better than we are now!

How much B vitamins should be supplemented every day? This question is a bit unanswerable! Because every cell in the body needs various B vitamins, the amount depends on how many cells there are in your body.

That is to say, if you are thin and have relatively few cells in your body, you will naturally need relatively less B vitamins!

Note that fat stored in the body does not require these vitamins, which means that the B vitamins you need are proportional to your ideal weight, not your actual weight. The bigger you are and the more actual muscle you have, the more B vitamins you need!

Another point is that the greater the pressure, the greater the vitamin requirement! Stress will greatly increase the body's demand for various B vitamins!

How to check whether the B vitamins are sufficient? All I can say is that if you never feel tired, it means you are getting enough B vitamins. If you feel tired, it means your B vitamins are too low!

Members of the B vitamins

It is unrealistic to discuss the lack of a certain B vitamin, however, the degree of deficiency of certain B vitamins is greater than the degree of deficiency of other B vitamins Serious phenomena exist. Therefore, we still need to talk about each member of the vitamin B family separately.

First of all, this lecture is an introduction to the vitamin B family, and briefly mentions representative issues of each member. Due to limited space, we will not discuss each member in detail!

That is to say, the deficiency symptoms of each member of the vitamin B family will not be mentioned one by one. Anyone who is interested can search online to learn more! I will talk about it slowly when I have the opportunity in the future!

Since it is a vitamin B family, let’s first talk about its members and what kind of names it has. If you are interested, please note it!

B1, thiamine

B2, riboflavin

B3, niacin or nicotinamide

B5, pantothenic acid

B6, pyridoxine or pyridoxine

B7, biotin

B9, folic acid

B12, cyanocobalamin

The above 8 types are proven, and there are several others. The internationally recognized total number is 12 types, such as inositol, choline, and paba, which are also used as vitamin B complex.

B vitamins, which exist as energy conversion. In other words, we do not eat food for our stomachs. We need B vitamins to convert these foods into energy to maintain the normal functions of the human body.

Vitamin B2

The human body does not only supply oxygen to the lungs, but also has another source, which is the skin. If there is a sufficient source of vitamin D, the skin can help the lungs absorb more oxygen from the air.

The hypoxia of people at plateau is an obvious example. Children in plateau areas look very flushed from a distance, and when they get closer, they have red bloodshot eyes. When vitamin B2 is lacking, capillaries will grow to the surface of the skin!

Dizziness will occur due to insufficient oxygen, and the hands and feet will be cold. Because there is insufficient oxygen, fatigue easily occurs!

Some people’s eyes are afraid of light, are very sensitive to light, itchy, and always feel like there are grains of sand or dirt in their eyes. There is also a lack of vitamin b2. If you are under severe stress for a long time, your eyes will become bloodshot and covered with red filaments.

The lack of vitamin B2 can be seen on the face, such as a garlic nose and dark red or purple tongue. The most obvious symptom of vitamin B2 deficiency is the lack of color in the urine.

If the deficiency is long-term and not serious, you will find that some women’s upper lips are getting smaller and smaller, and their lower lips are very thick. There are also cases where the corners of the mouth will crack and bleed.

Whenever I wake up in the morning, my face becomes oily, especially my forehead, nose, chin, cheeks, and corners of my eyes.

Especially when you wake up in the morning, your eyes will be sticky and you can’t open them due to eye mucus. This is not because of a serious lack of vitamin B2 and just eating some bad oil outside, and then eating a lot of rice and noodles.

Having said that, I have to mention it again: rice noodles are really junk food! Many people have opinions on this statement, so I won’t explain it too much here as space is limited. If you know a little bit about nutrition, you will never get sick!

The more rice and noodles you eat, the greater your demand for vitamin B, because vitamin B is used for energy conversion. You are already deficient in B vitamins, and eating more rice and noodles will cause you to become even more deficient in B vitamins.

Vitamin b3

Homosexuality and eccentricity are not just accidental. Such people may have a lot to be happy about, but they are unable to enjoy real happiness because of a lack of niacin! A lack of vitamin b3 can make people with a surly temperament even more surly.

Lack of niacin often causes oral ulcers and the smell in the mouth is not very pleasant. It can also cause pellagra.

Aggravation of clinical symptoms can lead to mental retardation, depression, hostility to others, or suspicion. People who are suspicious often have a serious vitamin b3 deficiency! Therefore, the combination of vitamin b3 and vitamin c can also keep people calm and regulate mental illness.

Vitamin B5

The lack of pantothenic acid can cause fatigue, headache, dizziness, dizziness, weakness of limbs, accelerated heartbeat, and muscle cramps. And persistent colds and upper respiratory tract infections.

Without pantothenic acid, neither sugar nor fat can be converted into energy. The body cannot utilize paba and choline. Eating a meal will cause special damage to the adrenal glands, which will cause massive bleeding.

Lack of pantothenic acid is also one of the main causes of allergies. Cow's milk-fed babies develop allergies in 60 years. This is because a large amount of pantothenic acid in milk is lost during the heat sterilization process. Allergies in infants and young children will disappear when sufficient pantothenic acid and vitamin C are supplemented.

A lack of pantothenic acid is also a cause of arthritis and gout because the adrenal glands do not produce enough cortisol.

If the adrenal glands are healthy, they can also provide sex hormones to a postmenopausal woman. Men who lack pantothenic acid will be sterile. Women may have miscarriages or give birth to fetuses with malformations.

To summarize, arthritis, gout, hypoglycemia, infection, allergies, and people who are stressed all need to supplement pantothenic acid.

Vitamin B6

Lack of vitamin B6 can cause severe bad breath, headaches, tantrums, dizziness, extreme nervousness, inability to concentrate, seborrheic dermatitis, and even genital rashes . Diarrhea and hemorrhoids are also possible!

Edema, nausea, anemia, mental stress, leg and foot cramps, muscle weakness, and hemorrhoids caused during pregnancy are related to lack of vitamin b6.

The onset of epilepsy is directly related to the lack of vitamin b6. If such patients only supplement vitamin b6 and magnesium, it will directly help their recovery.

Vitamin B6 is very effective in preventing tooth decay, and it can prevent the formation of kidney stones if sufficient amounts of magnesium are consumed.

People with blood sugar problems have a particularly high demand for vitamin b6. The skin on the hands and feet is dry, easy to crack, very tired, unable to wake up, has a lot of scalp, and the skin will be oily, indicating insufficient vitamin B6 and abnormal protein metabolism.

Especially when antibiotics are given by intravenous injection, the beneficial bacteria will die on a large scale, resulting in the inability of many B vitamins to enter normally from the intestines. This lack of B complex will lead to insufficient B6 and vitamin B6, leading to pancreatic damage and uncontrolled blood sugar.

Many people drink strong tea and coffee to promote urination, but this increase in urination causes a large loss of B-complex, which leads to the overflow of uric acid.

Gestational hyperglycemia is caused by the increased needs of the B family due to pregnancy, which are not properly met. The adjustment is easy, just a lack of vitamin b6.

If b6 is not lacking, the pancreas will not be damaged and blood sugar will be stable.

The effect of large doses of B vitamins on patients with blood sugar is very obvious.

Vitamin B1

Vitamin B and other B vitamins have a synergistic effect, and the combined effect is better than using it alone.

Vitamin b1, its main function is to help growth, aid digestion, and improve mental state.

When there is a lack of vitamin b1, sugar in the body cannot be converted into energy and fat. When the body cannot supply sufficient energy, the result is fatigue, sleepiness and general weakness

For people who lack vitamin b1, their fatigue symptoms are very obvious after supplementing this vitamin.

When this energy conversion is insufficient, brain cells cannot obtain energy, which can lead to changes in temperament, depression, confusion, and forgetfulness.

Due to energy conversion problems, the contraction of the stomach and intestinal wall muscles slows down, and food cannot be fully mixed with digestive juices and enzymes. This results in vitamins being destroyed, proteins unable to be digested, and minerals unable to be absorbed. This produces flatulence.

The stomach does not participate in the absorption of food nutrients and only absorbs part of the protein. The small intestine is responsible for digestion and absorption. The large intestine has only one function, which is to recycle water from waste (feces). When the contractions of the large intestine wall slow down, waste can stay longer than normal and water can be drawn back into the bloodstream. The longer the waste stays in the large intestine, the drier and harder the stool will become, which is constipation!

Heart disease may also be caused by a lack of vitamin b1. In the case of mild lack of vitamin b1, the heart may stop beating.

Nervous tissue is the only place where sugar is converted into energy, so a lack of vitamin b1 often leads to neuritis. There are many types of neuritis, such as trigeminal neuralgia, shingles pain, sciatica, and low back pain.

Supplementing vitamin B1 can also relieve the symptoms of motion sickness, airsickness and seasickness. The direct manifestation of vitamin B1 deficiency is athlete's foot.

Choline and inositol

A lack of at least four B vitamins will affect hair color. It’s paba, biotin, folic acid and pantothenic acid. If the cofactor matrix of the synthesized B vitamins is incomplete, it will be difficult to restore the hair to its original color.

Just like vitamin C, if it is incomplete, it will not shorten the cold cycle and have other effects.

Male baldness is related to the lack of inositol. If you supplement enough B vitamins and inositol, you will no longer lose your hair. Alopecia areata causes hair to grow back.

Without choline, the kidneys are often injured, resulting in nephritis. Severe kidney damage can occur with continued deficiency.

Many doctors do not understand nutrition and do not know how to give choline and B vitamin supplements to patients with nephritis. Let some patients eat low-protein food. These patients know that nephritis is fatal, and they are too frightened to do anything. He doesn't know what to eat except some refined foods.

These refined foods will only make the patient's disease more serious. Because these refined foods lack high protein and choline.

With low-protein foods lacking choline, excess fat will be crowded into the liver, leading to fatty liver. Only by supplementing a completely reasonable diet and nutrients rich in protein can the damaged liver be repaired and restored

I will not go into details about other vitamin members. Choline, folic acid, inositol, vitamin b12, etc. There would be too much space to expand one by one, so we will discuss them in the following topics. In particular, pregnant women have a greater demand for vitamin B and cause the most problems. This will be a separate topic in the future.

The main sources of B vitamins are animal livers, yeast, cereals, and dairy products.

If you have symptoms of a certain B vitamin deficiency, then you need to use the entire B vitamins to treat it!

It is as illogical as using an amino acid to treat protein deficiency!

Vilito

Finally, I recommend Melaleuca’s Vilito:

Vilito is a powerful supplement for B vitamins

This One bottle is equivalent to:

3 jins of corn’s vitamin B1

1 jin of peas’ vitamin B2

2 jins of beans’ vitamin B3

2.7 pounds of spinach contains vitamin B6

6 pounds of snow peas contains vitamin B7

7.1 pounds of chicken contains vitamin B12

Think about it, not to mention working overtime and staying up late. Relieve fatigue during long drives. It’s better than drinking Red Bull! Red Bull also costs 6 yuan, but this one is only 8 yuan! Awesome!
