Where is it used?
It is found in multivitamins, energy and stress-support products.

What do we know from the available evidence?
B vitamins are not stimulants, and higher doses do not automatically produce more energy.
The evidence varies by goal, and we should not equate marketing with clinical data.

Some B vitamins, such as B6, can cause problems at very high doses taken over a long period.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, chronic conditions or medication use are reasons to seek individualized professional advice.
