Wisdom From the Well

Did you know about B vitamins and their importance for your health? Here's some great information from Hippocrates Wellness.

The number 8 not only represents infinity, it's also the number of B-Vitamins responsible for many essential functions within your body.

It’s so easy to mistake ailments of nutritional deficiency as a character trait, fooling you into thinking “this is just the way I am”.

The good news is, it’s not! Your body is constantly striving to achieve optimum, vibrant health.

The way you feel directly influences the way you project yourself into the world and consequently the way you treat others. When you improve your health, every aspect of your life improves.
This is so true, pay attention friends.

Every day your body needs to get the right amount of vitamins and nutrients to keep it healthy and working efficiently.

So how do you strike that balance?

B-vitamins aid in the release of vital energy extracted from the food we eat to nourish and support our immune and nervous systems. The individual B-vitamins are thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), vitamin B6, biotin (B7), folic acid (folate), and vitamin B12.

Deficiencies can cause fatigue, anxiety, depression, skin defects and brain fog, leaving you feeling unbalanced and depleted. B6, for example, helps the body to make neurotransmitters like serotonin, which influences our mood and helps take us to our ‘happy place’, whereas B12 is required to form red blood cells and DNA.

B-vitamins are water-soluble, so be sure to drink adequate levels of filtered water or distilled water every day.

Eat organic, whole foods - including plenty of organic dark green leafy vegetables, raw oranic nuts and seeds, organic ripe fruits, whole grains, quinoa, spirulina, chia and millet.

And friends make sure to take raw vegan B12, essentail for your neurons. Vitamin B12 is an important nutrient for our health, supporting DNA synthesis, central nervous system function and energy production. It is found in many foods, but a lot of people still become deficient in it, which can lead to serious health problems if not treated.

Vegans and vegetarians can be particularly at risk for vitamin B12 deficiency, as the main sources of this nutrient tend to be animal products — even though sometimes this is because the animals are given supplements themselves!

1

Fatigue: as it can decrease normal red blood cell production and impair oxygen delivery.

2

Headaches: are one of the most commonly reported symptoms.

3

Yellow or pale skin: can occur in anemia-related vitamin B12 deficiency due to a lack of red blood cells.

4

Gastrointestinal issues: like nausea, diarrhea, constipation, gas, and bloating.

5

Depressive symptoms: as it can affect your central nervous system and impact your mental health.

6

Mouth and tongue pain / inflammation: a B12 deficiency could cause glossitis, a medical term for a red, inflamed and painful tongue.

7

Difficulty concentrating and brain fog: especially in older adults as B12 deficiency risk increases with age.

8

Hand and foot paresthesia: a burning ‘pins and needles’ sensation, usually felt in the hands and feet.

9

Muscle cramps and weakness: as B12 deficiency can impact sensory nerve and motor function.

10

Erectile dysfunction: due to increased levels of homocysteine in the body.

11

Impaired coordination: as B12 deficiency can affect neurological function.

12

Vision disturbances: which could be caused by optic nerve damage.
