Biotics Research Bio-3B-G 180 tabs
Biotics Research's Bio-3B-G provides three times the RDA of the thiamin and 100% of the RDA of the B vitamin group, including B2, B3, B6 and B12, all in the phosphorylated forms. As such, it is similar in nature to the product Bio-B-100™ with the above noted increase in thiamin. The Importance of Phosphorylated B Vitamins Bio-3B-G® provides biochemically activate forms of the B vitamins, including riboflavin 5- phosphate and cocarboxylase, in lieu of riboflavin and thiamin, respectively. Consequently, fewer enzymatic steps are needed to achieve a fully functional coenzyme. As an example, the first step in the synthesis of NAD is the biochemical conversion of niacin to niacinamide, which then forms nicotinamide mononucleotide, an intermediate for NAD formation. Riboflavin 5-phosphate is the redox co-enzyme FMN, converted in a single step by flavokinase to FAD, which is more frequently used than FMN. Flavokinase is regulated by thyroxin, and in adults hypothyroidism may be associated w
