Q: Can hair lost from stress grow and/or vitamin B deficiency grow back?
I can tell that during school, I lost a lost of hair due to stress. I wondering if it will grow back. Also, can hair lost from vitamin B deficiency grow back if you put more B vitamins in your system? Answers are appreciated. Thank you.

Q: Does a vitamin B deficiency occur when smoking pot?
Not only have I noticed that the detoxification cocktail is loaded with B vitamins almost exclusively, but the effects of smoking pot are similar to the effects of a vitamin b deficiency. Taking vitamin B can cure many of the side-effects of pot smoking. Are these things related? Does anyone else think this to be more than coincidence?

A: Welli am NO medical doctor,.. nor have i done any research, however… i would assume that YES… it does. Whenever i have smoked and not taking my dialy vitamins, or exercised that day,.. i get a mild panic attack. Why? Well exercising and the vitamins raise your B levels, which also sustain a good hormone and energy level. SO i would assume.. yes, yes it does.

Q: How much Vitamin B should you take to stop hair loss?
When I look at those multivitamins, they always have a high amount of the Vitamin B complex but I read that depending on which Vitamin B, you should take only 6-50 mg per day.

A: The treatment of hair loss is depend upon the causes of hair loss.
And as for as concern with the quantity of vitamin B if you gain it by natural food than it is not so dangerous but if you gain it by some artificial source like medicine and supplement than take care about the quantity of it.

Q: Any reasonably simple recipes that give you a good dose of Vitamin B?
Things that include things like blueberries (not necessarily just blueberries though) or other foods that give you Vitamin B. This is for an assessment task at school. I have to cook it. No drinks! This means NO: milkshakes, thickshakes, alcoholic beverages, yoghurts or smoothies. Thanks in advance!

Q: What is the best Vitamin B complex on the market?
I recently started taking vitamin B-50 complex (Life Brand), but I seem to be having an allergic reaction to it. Does anyone know what the best vitamin company is, that does not have extras (such as herbs, etc.) as fillers? I do not care what the cost is.

Also, where can I buy them?

I only want vitamin B complete. (B-1, B-2, B-3, B-6,B-12)

Thanks!
I have taken vitamin B in the past and no reactions. I can not remember the company though.

A: since you have taken it in the past, try to find a brand that does not have artificial colors in them. Many times, that is the issue with allergy and pill taking. My sister spent 3 trips to the ER with severe hives and allergic reaction all because the brand of Tylenol she was taking had this red dye all over the outside of the capsule.

Q: What benefit did vitamin B-12 provide to pro baseball players?

Q: How much vitamin b allowed in pregnancy im 40weeks?
My fingers have sweeled up and I cant get rings off. I am getting induced tomorrow and dont want to hurt baby. My mum said to take vitamin b to stop swelling. How much is ok in 3rd trimester. Im so close! just worried about fingers circulation getting cut off esp- cos tomorrow gota have drip and drugs for labour!
cant edit this question.
my fingers have swollen
mum said vitamin b stops fluid retention

A: You either have water retention (edema)–due to low potassium diet, or high sodium diet–or preeclampsia.

During pregnancy, the body produces approximately 50% more blood and body fluids to meet the needs of the developing baby. Swelling is a normal part of pregnancy that is caused by this additional blood and fluid. Normal swelling, which is also called edema, is experienced in the hands, face, legs, ankles, and feet.

This extra retention of fluid is needed to soften the body, which enables it to expand as the baby develops. Extra fluid also helps prepare the pelvic joints and tissues to open to allow the baby to be born. The extra fluids account for approximately 25% of the weight women gain during pregnancy.

When does swelling occur during pregnancy?
Swelling may be experienced at any point during pregnancy, but it tends to be noticed around the fifth month and can increase while you are in the third trimester. The following factors may also affect swelling:

Summertime heat
Standing for long periods of time
“Long” days of activity
Diet low in potassium
High level of caffeine consumption
High level of sodium intake

Slight swelling is expected during pregnancy; however, if you experience sudden swelling in your hands and your face, it could be a sign of preeclampsia. It is important to contact your health care provider about any sudden swelling.

Preeclampsia is a condition of high blood pressure during pregnancy. Your blood pressure goes up, you retain water, and protein is found in your urine. It is also called toxemia or pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH). The exact cause of preeclampsia is unknown.

Here are the symptoms of preeclampsia:

Mild preeclampsia: high blood pressure, water retention, and protein in the urine.

Severe preeclampsia: headaches, blurred vision, inability to tolerate bright light, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, urinating small amounts, pain in the upper right abdomen, shortness of breath, and tendency to bruise easily. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience blurred vision, severe headaches, abdominal pain, and/or urinating very infrequently .

In order to know if you have preeclampsia or not, your healthcare provider will check your blood pressure, urine levels, and may order blood tests to find out.

Your physician may also perform other tests that include: checking kidney and blood-clotting functions; ultrasound scan to check your baby’s growth; and Doppler scan to measure the efficiency of blood flow to the placenta.

Treatment depends on how close you are to your due date. If you are close to your due date, and the baby is developed enough, your health care provider will probably want to deliver your baby as soon as possible.

If you have mild preeclampsia and your baby has not reached full development, your doctor will probably recommend you do the following:

Rest, lying on your left side to take the weight of the baby off your major blood vessels.
Increase prenatal checkups.
Consume less salt.
Drink 8 glasses of water a day.

If you have severe preeclampsia, your doctor may try to treat you with blood pressure medication until you are far enough along to deliver safely.

Preeclampsia can prevent the placenta from getting enough blood. If the placenta doesn’t get enough blood, your baby gets less oxygen and food. This can result in low birth weight.

Wait until you deliver to start using vitamins, and in your case a Multivitamin/Multimineral formula–specially liquid–will be necessary to help you recover soon.

Good luck! :)

Q: Is good to take Iron supplements,ascorbic acid and vitamin B at the same time?
I take Iron coz’ Im anemic,ascorbic acid to have resistance against and Vitamin B coz Im experiencing lock jaw.

A: Yes, it’s perfectly fine to take all of those together. Vitamin C can help the Iron be absorbed easier in the system and some of the B Vitamins help combat anemia because they help in the production of red blood cells. It sounds like you’re doing the right thing (assuming your doctor has told you the proper dosage to take). Good luck and I hope I helped!

Q: Can You Place a Vitamin B Complex pill Under the Tongue for Energy?
Ive been wondering about energy sprays for under the tongue, and just wanted to know if its possible to place a normal B complex vitamin under the tongue for the same or similar energy results.(not the sublingual). I know that things absorbed under the tongue make their way through the body/glands faster, but I’m not sure if it would be safe for a regular vitamin since it would be a different dosage.

Thanks in advance for any help!

A: It wouldnt dissolve. Putting medication under the tongue IS sublingual. There is a liquid vit. B that you can take and put under the tongue. But you have to remember that B complex has more than just vit B in it. If your just wanting the energy source from Vit. B, then I would just get a reg B-12. It boosts brain power as well as energy. It’s not like slamming back a red bull if thats what your looking for. Hope this helps and feel free to ask any other questions.

Q: Will a vitamin B injection help me avoid the seizures and DT’s associated with alcohol withdrawal?
I am an alcoholic and I’m currently weaning myself off alcohol, I’m afraid to go cold turkey because I tried that once before and had a couple seizures, hallucinations & DT’s, the Dr’s at the time told my family that I might not survive, after 5 days in ICU I did recover and stayed sober several months but about a month ago I sucumbed to my addiction at started drinking heavily again. I want to stop drinking but I don’t want to risk death in doing so. This time I hope to wean myself by gradually reducing my daily intake of alcohol. I’m currently down to 10 beers a day and my plan is to reduce my daily intake by one beer a day until I get down to no beers a day. Is this weaning method safe or do I still run the risk of severe alcohol withdrawal even if I wean myself vs stopping cold turkey. I’ve heard the Vitamin B is essential for the proper function of the nervous system, will a vitamin B shot help minimize the chance of me experiencing severe withdrawal systems? Please advise.

A: You do need B vitamins but they do not prevent seizures alone.

But the bottom line is the following-
You have a history of DT’s therefore you are high risk for more DT’s upon withdrawal.

The standing orders we used in the Jail Clinic in Houston were the following:

Librium beginning very high and tapering over two weeks is crucial to preventing DT’s and early seizures.

Phenytoin loading dose immediately then maintenance dose. This is an old line seizure medicine.

Thiamine to prevent brain damage- which is given by IM injection 100mg/day before anything else to prevent Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome.

B Complex tablets which is the source of Niacin, twice a day, for 10 days, then daily.

Multivitamins with minerals and trace elements twice daily for 10 days, then daily.

Balanced plate lunch diet three times a day.

Daily physical examination for neurological status, and close management of concurrent chronic diseases (usually Diabetes, COPD, Hypertension, Liver disease and Heart Disease as a base-line).

Observation, supervision and on duty medical providers 24/7.

Immediate referral to Ben Taub General Hospital for complications and medical or surgical emergencies.

This is NOT a prescription, but is a functional outline of one protocol that worked 100% without seizures, DT’s or fatalities over a year period that I worked there.

Absolutely positively do not try this at home.
That is rock solid, do not even think of doing it at home: you need prescription meds, close 24/7 medical attention and care to prevent seizures and DT’s which is a medical emergency and kills.

The best treatment for the seizures and DT’s of alcohol withdrawal is prevention. Prevent them during the fragile period and you do not have fatalities. Allow them to begin and you have serious problems.

Rock Solid Advice- you should not only not go through withdrawal with your history at home,
you should not do it in any hospital or clinic that does not do this every day with good success and outstanding prevention of seizures and DT’s altogether.

Since this is your life in the balance: find the in-house treatment facility which not only treats but totally prevents the life threatening complications of alcohol withdrawal.

They exist. It can be done. Do it right and live.

Good Luck on the rest of your life and remember Hoss, God Loves You. That makes a difference.

Q: Why does urine turn bright yellow when taking a Vitamin B Complex?
It also has a vitamin C. Is the body not absorbing the Vitamin B, and is being excreted?

A: Well, I view it as your body is reaching full capacity, and you pee out the rest, like an overflow. Then you know you’re good.

Q: How long should i take a multivitamin or vitamin B before my court date for drug test?
Im an avid user of THC and ive quit smoking for about a week and i have a court appearance tomarow on the 31st, ive heard to drink water and then take the vitamins before to put color in the urine. Exactly how long before should i take the vitamins (monster Chaos has LOTS of vitamin b)

A: If you are a regular marijuana user and stopped last week, you will test positive for THC tomorrow. Vitamins and water will not fool a toxicology test. Sorry but that’s reality.

Q: What are good natural sources of B-12 vitamin?
I have a slightly elevated cholesterol level.
I have made the switch from Vegetarian to Vegan and plan to spend the time to get all nutritional needs met.
I have heard that walnuts have vitamin B-12.
Any other natural foods or nutritional supplements that you know of for B-12?
Thank you in advance for all thoughtful answers to come!

A: Congrats on becoming a vegan! No walnuts do not contain b12 neither does most nutritional yeast. Walnuts do contain omega 3 though!

Some good sources of B-12 are fortified cereals, fortified soy/rice milks, meat substitutes/soy analogs, some brands of fortified brewer’s & nutritional yeast (such as Red Star & Twinlab). Sea vegetables like seaweed, dried nori, & spirulina, may contain vitamin B12, but their content varies and may be unreliable, lactic acid fermented products such as like tempeh, msio, beer & sauerkraut, but their content as well varies and may be unreliable. Marmite, So Delicious Dairy Free Yogurt, Manging Star foods, and other vegan store bought foods also contains B12 (Cyanocobalamin).

Q: Is it alright to have a multivitamin and a vitamin B complex?
I don’t think that I can really overdose with vitamin B with that ( I only eat like two meals a day). But I was just wondering if it would be alright?

A: Hi,

Check how much b12, b6 and folic acid your multivitamin provides you. You’re right it would be hard to overdose on b vitamins if you use both as directed.

However it is never really a good idea to have much more than the recommended amount of any vitamin or mineral since that just means that your body needs to work extra hard to get rid of it which puts stress on either your kidneys or your liver (depending on which substance the body is trying to get rid of).

So the answer is, yes it is ok to have b complex and multi, but do you really need to?
