Bioactive B-Complex

The products containing a B-complex at NatuGena are:

• Bioactive B-Complex – 1 capsule daily, gentle supplementation, with 7 B vitamins, high-dose NADH and magnesium
• HydroVitamine – 3 capsules daily, high-dose formulation, with 15 B vitamins and vitamin C

HydroVitamine and Bioactive B-Complex provide various B vitamins in selected forms. The products differ primarily in the scope of their formulations, dosage and recommended daily serving.

Composition

• HydroVitamine is the more comprehensive and higher-dosed vitamin B and vitamin C complex, containing a total of 15 ingredients. The formulation contains all eight recognized B vitamins – B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9 and B12. They are complemented by vitamin C as well as vitamin-like compounds and other selected substances such as choline, inositol, PABA, orotic acid and pangamic acid. The daily serving also provides 300 mg of vitamin C.
• Bioactive B-Complex contains seven selected B vitamins: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9 and B12. A special feature of the formulation is the combination with NADH (the bioactive form of B3) and magnesium taurate.

Dosage

• The recommended daily intake of HydroVitamine is three capsules. If a lower amount is desired, just 1–2 capsules per day can also be taken.
• For Bioactive B-Complex, the recommended daily serving is one capsule per day.

Which Product Is Suitable for Which Need?

• HydroVitamine offers a particularly broad spectrum of B vitamins, vitamin C and complementary ingredients. The formulation is more comprehensive overall and provides higher doses, making it suitable in cases of deficiency and for therapeutic use.
• Bioactive B-Complex has a more compact formulation and provides seven selected B vitamins in a more moderate daily serving of just one capsule.

Conclusion: Bioactive B-Complex is therefore suitable for a compact supply of selected B vitamins, while HydroVitamine offers a broader range of ingredients and higher amounts of the vitamins it contains. Which product is the better choice depends on the individual diet, personal needs and specific circumstances.

B vitamins perform numerous important functions in the body. Among other things, they contribute to normal energy metabolism, the normal functioning of the nervous system, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. As the individual B vitamins complement each other in their functions, they are often combined in a B-complex supplement.

Dosage

In general, the recommended intake stated on the packaging applies to adults. Since children’s nutrient requirements vary depending on age, body weight, diet, and individual circumstances, the use and dosage of our products should be discussed with the treating pediatrician in advance. Please note that not all ingredients and products are suitable for children. Suitability should therefore always be professionally assessed on an individual basis.

Many capsules can generally be opened and their contents mixed into food or a drink, such as (coconut) yogurt, applesauce, or mashed potatoes. However, this should not be used as a basis for independently determining the dosage for children.

For drops as well, the amount and frequency of intake for children should be determined individually based on tolerance and need, in consultation with a healthcare professional.
