Hiya,

I read somewhere that if you take a Vitamin B Complex you need to take a Calcium tablet as well to aid the vit b absorption?

Is this correct? I asked my Dr whilst I was with him but he didn't answer, he just stuck it on my prescription?!

Confused

Yes, calcium helps absorption of vitamin b, and vitamin d helps absorption of calcium!

Thank you Lotster!! :o

Also does it boost your appetite as mine has been non-existant for ages now!

I have heard this. As well as that it boosts energy and relieves stress.

I believe Brewers Yeast (source of B Vits) is good for boosting appetite.
