Default b complex

hi all sorry, im sure this has been asked but is there a b complex that you all would recommend?

also my rheum just tested for b6 folate and b12, serum and they were normal
should i have gotten my thiamine tested as well

are there people here who have had high serum values but still have a deficiency or is that really rare

ooh also are there nutritional deficiencies that cause mild tissue swelling? i know hypothyroidism and sex hormones can cause it... or could just having an old nerve injury cause tissue swelling?

tia!

alot of people who have come to these forums have used
Jarrow's with good results:

http://www.iherb.com/Jarrow-Formulas...eggie-Caps/110

The only caveat is that there are a few people who may "flush" or tingle at the 25mg niacin dose. This typically happens with higher doses, but I wanted to mention it to you.

B complex never really helped for me but I'm willing to try Jarrow's. Thanks for the tip.

Hi, I'm not sure what you were using B Complex for. I initially bought it thinking it would raise my B12 level which had tested "Profound Deficiency" --

I used a few B Complex an hour with LOTS of liquid.

A month later... NO CHANGE in my B12 level... but, I no longer had hayfever, I discovered. The Chamisa (wild sage) was in full, YELLOW bloom, all over Santa Fe, and unlike any year in the past, I wasn't sneezing.

So, Now I use B complex before and during every hayfever season.
