What it is

Vitamin B is a group of water-soluble vitamins essential for human health. They are found naturally in many foods like whole grains, meat, eggs, and dairy. They can also be added to foods or taken as supplements.

Why it's used

B vitamins are often added to foods to increase their nutritional value, acting as a nutrient. They are commonly found in fortified cereals, energy drinks, and nutritional supplements.

Health notes

The FDA recognizes B vitamins as essential nutrients and permits their addition to foods. They play crucial roles in metabolism and nerve function. JECFA has evaluated various B vitamins and set acceptable daily intakes for some. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects from typical dietary intake, but very high doses from supplements can sometimes cause side effects.

Allergen info

B vitamins are not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
