Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B-5) is a member of the B-complex family of vitamins and is found in nearly every living cell as a component of coenzyme A (CoA). Vitamin B-5 (CoA) is essential for the generation of energy from fat, carbohydrate, and protein.† Like other B vitamins‚ pantothenic acid is water soluble‚ which means that the body is not able to store it‚ so it must be supplemented in some other way. This vitamin can help support a healthy digestive tract as well as aid in the process of creating energy‚ red blood cells‚ and stress-related hormones that are made in the body’s adrenal glands. Pantothenic acid can assist in the metabolism process, as well as in hormone‚ bile‚ and hemoglobin synthesis.

A long-time favorite of athletes for its amazing energy boost. Pantothenic acid has been investigated for its role in sports performance since it is required for the production of Coenzyme A (CoA), which among other things is required to transport fatty acyls (via the conjugated fatty Acyl-CoA) to the mitochondria so fats can be used for energy production and is used at many other points in the energy production cycle. “Factors controlling the rate of fatty acid -oxidation in rat liver mitochondria” Biochim Biophys Acta, December 8, 1972.

Biotin is a member of the B-complex family of vitamins. Biotin is an essential cofactor in the metabolism of nutrients including carbohydrates, fats, and amino acids. Most notably, biotin has been used to support conditions related to blood sugar metabolism as well as fat metabolism. Biotin can also be manufactured by healthy gut bacteria, hence the importance of probiotics. We use the highest quality USP-grade biotin available.†



Features
Provides 5mg (5,000mcg) per serving.
Easy to swallow capsule.
High-quality, USP-grade biotin.


Benefits
Biotin is an essential cofactor for glucokinase, a key enzyme involved in glucose metabolism and the synthesis of glycogen (storage form of glucose).†
Biotin, as a cofactor for chemical reactions involved in glucose metabolism, has been shown to help support glucose levels already in the normal range.†
Biotin is required for fatty acid synthesis and oxidation (“burning”). Deficiency of biotin has been linked to dry skin and hair as well as poor nail structure (brittle nails).†
Biotin has also been shown to promote normal, healthy nervous system function.†

DGL (Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice) is well-researched for its safe and effective healing support of the gastrointestinal lining.† The stomach lining and intestinal walls are in a constant state of repair, and this repair process is supported by the powerful properties of DGL licorice.† Our unique formula also includes fennel, marshmallow and aloe vera to support overall health of the digestive tract lining.† Deglycyrrhizinated licorice is specially processed and standardized to remove the glycyrrhizin, a compound that may cause undesirable side effects.† This advanced formula is designed to soothe, protect and support gastrointestinal health.†
CONTAINS NO Artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives; no wheat, gluten, milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, crustacean shellfish or fish.

Processed with hot water extraction to remove the glycyrrhizin content to no more than 2%
• Supports healthy structure, function, and integrity of gastrointestinal mucosal lining
• Plant-based formula to support healthy mucous production in the GI tract

L-Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid. It is the primary source of fuel for the cells that line the intestinal tract. It also plays a role in protein and DNA synthesis. Many athletes take L-Glutamine after a workout to promote muscle repair and recovery.

Amino acids are needed by the body to rebuild and repair tissues, muscles, blood proteins, and cell enzymes. L-Glutamine, the most abundant amino acid found in the muscle, is converted to glutamic acid in the body to support cerebral function.† L-Glutamine also assists in maintaining a healthy digestive tract.†

As coenzymes (helping enzymes carry out chemical reactions), B-vitamins are essential nutrients involved in most metabolic reactions. They play an important role in energy production, particularly from the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. These essential nutrients are also important for the production of healthy cells, hormones, neurotransmitters, and other biomolecules. They are needed for healthy nerve, heart, brain, muscle, and other important cell/tissue function. The B-vitamins are water-soluble, and therefore not stored to any significant extent in the body. This is why we need to ensure adequate intake of these nutrients on a daily basis. Due to the excess consumption of refined and processed foods, the average person does not consume optimal amounts of these nutrients. Our B-Complex 100 provides high amounts of essential B-Complex vitamins.



Features
B-Complex 100 provides a high-potency, full-spectrum B-vitamin supplement which helps support many different biochemical and physiological processes.†
Reliance’s B-complex contains USP-Grade nutrients, therefore meets strict standards for purity and potency.
Comes in a sustained release delivery system, allowing slower absorption over several hours to help maintain optimal blood levels of these key nutrients.†


Benefits
Thiamin, riboflavin, and niacin are essential for the production of energy from food. They also help support nerve and heart function, and help the body produce antioxidants.†
Vitamin B6 is needed to make neurotransmitters, chemicals that are essential for normal, healthy brain and nervous system function. B6 also helps support the metabolism of amino acids, including homocysteine, which, when elevated, may increase one’s risk for heart disease.†
Vitamin B12 and folic acid are both needed to make healthy blood cells by supporting DNA and RNA metabolism, and both help support normal, healthy levels of homocysteine; a recognized cardiovascular “toxin”.†
Pantothenic acid is needed to produce energy from fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, while biotin is essential for the metabolism of fatty acids and glucose, and assists in cellular energy production.†
Choline is needed to help support the production of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and serves as an important cofactor in healthy liver detoxification processes.†
Inositol serves as a signaling molecule helping to “direct” cellular function, while PABA serves as a component of folic acid.†

The amino acid L-Arginine has several roles in the body, such as assisting in wound healing, helping remove excess ammonia from the body, stimulating immune function, and promoting secretion of several hormones, including glucagon, insulin, and growth hormone.

Arginine is an amino acid produced in the human body by the digestion or hydrolysis of proteins. Arginine is naturally converted into nitric oxide by the human body, supporting cardiovascular health.† Arginine also supports immune and liver health.† Athletes often supplement with arginine while performing strenuous exercise to promote lean muscle mass.†
