B-complex (balanced)
Tier 2 — promising · Multi-B vitamin · Energy · Methylation
A balanced combination of all eight B vitamins in doses close to nutritional requirements (not the megadoses common in energy drinks). B-complex is the default supplemental approach when a single B deficiency is suspected but uncertain, since B vitamins act cooperatively and isolated high-dose single-B supplementation can unmask or worsen deficits in others. Activated (methyl/P5P/benfotiamine) versions are preferred over cheap forms (cyanocobalamin, folic acid, pyridoxine HCl) for genetic variants and long-term use.
Dose: 1 activated B-complex capsule/day with breakfast (doses vary by product)
