The B Vitamins are considered to be the âstressâ vitamins, based on the perceptions that these vitamins are more rapidly depleted in people who are more âstressedâ. Multivitamins like Stresstabs trade on this image. Among the B vitamins, B12 is often held out as as an almost miraculous energy booster.
Pick up a bottle of vitamin B supplements and youâre likely to see some sort of claim that the pills inside will boost your energy. Peruse the energy-drink section of the grocery store and youâll find that many of them have added B vitamins and make the same claim. Trouble is, B vitamins donât give you energy. No vitamin gives you energy. Calories give you energy. Specifically, calories in the form of glucose, which is found in carbohydrate-containing foods (grains, beans, vegetables, fruits, dairy).
