Healthy Eating & B-Complete vitamins

We hear much about making sure to incorporate our B vitamins into our diet, but which ones and why? B vitamins are water soluble meaning the body doesn’t store them and they need replaced each day. B vitamins are known as the  B-complex and have essential roles in cellular functions more specifically in the brain and nervous systems. Once again, the intake of the B-complex vitamins are not high levels, ranging from 2.4 mcg to 18 mg. But deficiencies can be expressed by fatigue, heart issues, irritability, sleep disturbances, confusion, headaches, anemia, personality changes, dermatitis, depression, anxiety, and the list goes on. Needless to say B-complex vitamins have great roles to play in our overall health.

Where to obtain the B-complex vitamins: cereal and bread grains (unprocessed), yeast, green vegetables, mushrooms, almonds, soy beans, nuts, seeds, legumes, avocados, sweet potatoes, lentils, fruits, Brussels sprouts, green leafy vegetables, etc. Let’s sum it up this way, Genesis 1:29, God simply states: “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.” What God intended us to eat, fruits, grains, seeds, nuts, legumes and vegetables, all provide the basic nutrients that “brings health to the flesh and strength to the bones.” Proverbs 3:8.
