But because vitamin B is in the background, you don’t hear a lot about this. It’s not the sexy vitamin that’s out there. This is me doing my sexy dance in the GI tract. Vitamin B is used to help digest and metabolize the food that you’re eating to get your best nutrients in your body.

It also helps out to produce energy by burning fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Now taking center stage in this process, there are three main types of vitamin B, vitamin B one, which is th vitamin b2, which is riboflavin and vitamin b3, which is niacin. Diamond is found in everything from lentils, red meats and sunflower seeds. We get rival flavin from nuts, dairy, meats, and plants. And niacin is found in beans, nuts, and fish. And without these we will feel run down, sluggish, tired, have no energy, and our gut would be totally out of whack. In fact, if you’re having gut issues or even energy issues, this may be the reason why you’re having these problems and they’re very critical in terms of your GI tract.

Vitamin B one or thymine helps to enhance and regulate your appetite. Vitamin, B3 or niacin helps to regulate fats and sugars to make sure they’re metabolized correctly and you digest those properly. So where exactly do you get vitamin B? We can get them in a lot of healthy foods that are out there, whether it’s dark greeny vegetables, seafood, dairy, and some meats.

Now it’s important to note that vitamin B is water soluble, and what that means is that it doesn’t store those vitamins in your fats like in your belly here. And this is why you need a constant supply of vitamin B to make sure you can make up the deficiencies you may have, but not having it stored in your body. So specifically to your gut health, how does vitamin B affect your GI tract?

And if you’re deficient in this particular vitamin, it can lead to a condition called pellagra and this can cause severe vomiting and diarrhea. Vitamin B6 is also known as perine. And once again, this helps out your digestive tract to break down the proteins that it may be eating. Biotin is another vitamin B, this helps to break down cholesterol. It also helps to metabolize other ingredients including proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. So vitamin B12, also known as cabal, is also a very calmly known Vitamin B. You may have heard about, it’s in the component of vitamin B12 shots. Now vitamin B12 plays a role in your nervous system to metabolize certain proteins to help metabolize carbohydrates and to regulate folic acid.

And in fact, if you are a vitamin B12 deficient, you actually may become anemic or your blood cell counts become lower and that can lead you to be tired, fatigued, and just not feeling very good.
