Read alot about how vit. b complex is good for you whilst on cycle in helping increase appetitte, help with joints, breaking down carbs, etc. I think there is even a dbol that incorporates vit b. but I could be wrong there! Well, I bought some vit b complex pills. The only thing is when I looked at the RDA's on the back one pill provides up to 3333% of vitamin b's like thiamin. Combined with my diet that gives me a huge intake of vitamin b complex every day. Here are my questions: is such a high dose beneficial or dangerous? can the body process the extra vitamin b? The reason I ask is that for the last 4 days that I've been taking these pills my pee has been almost pholorescent (sic) yellow, and I'm drinking tonnes of water so its not dyhydration. I'm on cycle right now so I thought I'd better check up on this, just in case!! Thanks    | ||

That's normal, what your body doesn't use it pisses out. Is this your first time taking vitamins?  | ||

You should only be taking 100mg of B vitamins a day. The best way to do this is with a B - complex. High doesages can cause toxicitity to the liver.There is no extra beneficial rewards for excess amounts of B unless you are unhealth to start with. The main use for it is to increase the bodies ability to fight unwanted free radicals. To increase the bodys immune system. The yellow pee is normal, it is usually caused by the natural esters that are found in the vitamin. [This message has been edited by aten8 (edited February 24, 2001).] | ||

I was only talking about the b5....It's not toxic as far as I know. There are many people here that take 5000mg a day. I personally take 2000mg ed to keep acne at bay. Fuzz | ||

There is a particular B vitamin in the mix that always causes you to pee yellow. I can not remember whether it is thiamine or riboflavin, but one of those turns your urine yellow. Look it up. | ||

For water souluble vits, the amount you take is really not a concern for you. Go ahead and load up. Vit C, and B are good ones. The fat souluble vits, are the ones that you need to be concerned with. As metioned earlier, what ever of the water sol. vits. you take that you body doesn't need, you will piss them out. Fat soulble don't exit the body that easy. If you don't know, or can't remember what the fat soul. vits. are, just remember DEKA, I know you can remeber Deca... Vit D, Vit E, Vit K, and Vit A are the fat souluble vitamins. You need more than the RDA on these, but just don't over do it. |
