Vitamin B Complex

Shop vitamin B complex supplements at Evergreen, with capsules, tablets and liquid formulas from trusted brands. B complex supplements combine several B vitamins in one formula, with options including methylated, activated and wholefood B complexes.

Vitamin B Complex Supplements

B complex supplements combine several of the B vitamins in one formula, making them a convenient option if you're looking for broader B-vitamin support rather than supplementing with one B vitamin individually.

The B-vitamin family plays a wide range of roles in the body. Depending on the individual vitamin, these include supporting normal energy metabolism, nervous system function, psychological function and helping to reduce tiredness and fatigue.

At Evergreen, you'll find B complex vitamins from trusted supplement brands in a range of strengths and formats.

What Is Vitamin B Complex?

There are eight recognised B vitamins:

• B1 – thiamine
• B2 – riboflavin
• B3 – niacin
• B5 – pantothenic acid
• B6 – pyridoxine
• B7 – biotin
• B9 – folate
• B12 – cobalamin

A B complex supplement typically combines several or all of these nutrients, although the amounts and forms used can vary considerably between products.

If you're looking for one particular B vitamin rather than a combination, you can also explore our individual Vitamin B Supplements ranges.

What Do B Vitamins Do?

B vitamins are involved in many everyday processes in the body, but they don't all perform exactly the same roles.

Several B vitamins, including B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7 and B12, contribute to normal energy metabolism – helping your body release energy from the food you eat.

Vitamins B2, B3, B5, B6, B12 and folate can also help reduce tiredness and fatigue.

Several members of the B-vitamin family contribute to normal nervous system or psychological function too, although their individual roles differ.

Our A–Z of Vitamins and Minerals provides a useful introduction to the individual B vitamins and where they're found in food.

How to Choose a Vitamin B Complex

There's no single B complex that's right for everyone. Formulas can differ considerably, so compare the individual B vitamins, their amounts and the forms used rather than looking only at the words "B complex" on the front of the pack.

You may also want to consider whether you'd prefer a capsule, tablet or liquid formula and whether you're specifically looking for an activated, methylated or wholefood B complex.

Methylated and Activated B Complex

You'll see terms such as methylated B vitamins and activated B complex on some supplements. These products contain certain B vitamins in forms that have already undergone particular chemical changes associated with their active forms in the body. For example, methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B12, while 5-MTHF is a form of folate.

That doesn't mean everyone automatically needs a methylated or activated formula. It's better to compare the overall formulation and choose a product appropriate for your individual needs.

Liquid B Complex

Liquid B complex supplements offer an alternative for people who prefer not to take tablets or capsules. Always check the serving size and the amounts of individual B vitamins provided, as these vary between formulas.

Wholefood and Organic B Complex

Some B complex supplements use ingredients derived from wholefood or organic sources. If this is important to you, check the individual product information carefully, as formulations and certifications differ between brands.

B Complex or Individual B Vitamins?

A B complex can be useful when you want several B vitamins together in one supplement. Individual B-vitamin supplements may be more appropriate when you're specifically looking for one nutrient, such as Vitamin B12, Vitamin B6 or folate.

This is also why it's worth checking other supplements you already take. Multivitamins frequently contain several B vitamins, so look at your total intake before combining multiple products.
