B vitamins are necessary for the wellbeing of the skin, hair, muscles and bones

B vitamins are needed for the wellbeing of the skin, hair, muscles and bones. They contribute to maintaining normal function of the nervous system and they are also important for brain health, the heart and arteries. B vitamins are needed for numerous vital functions and as the B vitamins often function together, it is important to ensure a sufficient intake of all of them.

B vitamins are needed for the formation of each cell in our bodies – especially the nerve cells. It is therefore vital that pregnant women get enough B vitamins, especially folate, which is needed more than usual during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
