Description
Solgar Formula Vitamin B-Complex ""50"" High Potency is a food supplement supplied as 50 vegetable capsules, each providing 50 mg of the major B vitamins. B vitamins work interdependently in the body, so taking them together in one B-complex capsule, rather than as several separate supplements, is generally considered the more effective approach.
Key Features
- High-potency 50 mg dose: Each capsule provides 50 mg of thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), pantothenic acid (B5), vitamin B6 and niacin (B3), a higher potency than many standard B-complex formulas, alongside vitamin B12, folic acid and biotin.
- One capsule a day: A full B-complex in a single daily vegetable capsule, taken with a meal.
- Vegan, vegetarian and kosher: Suitable for vegans and vegetarians, certified kosher, and supplied in a vegetable-based (non-gelatine) capsule shell.
- Free from common allergens: Made without gluten, wheat, dairy, soya, yeast, preservatives, or artificial flavours or colours.
- Includes a powdered plant base: Contains kelp, alfalfa, acerola, parsley, watercress and rose hips alongside the core B vitamins.
Why does this supplement combine several B vitamins instead of just one?
B vitamins are interdependent in how the body uses them, so Solgar's formula combines thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, biotin, folic acid and vitamin B12 in one capsule rather than requiring separate supplements for each.
Is Vitamin B-Complex ""50"" suitable for vegans and vegetarians?
Yes. It's suitable for vegans and vegetarians, is certified kosher, and uses a vegetable-based capsule shell rather than gelatine.
Does this supplement contain vitamin B12 and folic acid?
Yes. Each capsule provides 50 mcg of vitamin B12 (as cyanocobalamin) and 400 mcg of folic acid, alongside the other B vitamins.
What is the powdered plant base in this supplement?
Alongside the core B vitamins, each capsule contains a small amount of a powdered plant base made from kelp, alfalfa leaf and stem, acerola extract fruit, parsley leaf, watercress leaf and stem, and rose hips fruit.
