What makes Energi+ unique? 

Put simply, Energi+ was formulated with the best and most bioactive forms of the B Vitamins, in amounts that coincide with the bioenergetic perspective of optimizing cellular energy production. No corners were cut with Energi+. 

In specific - the following are the major upgrades you get with Energi+, as opposed to other B complex products out there.

1. Thiamine HCl --> Benfotiamine 
2. Niacin --> Niacinamide
3. Folic Acid --> L-5-Methyl Folate
4. Methylcobalamin --> Adenosylcobalamin
5. Cellulose capsule --> Bovine gelatin capsule
6. No silicon dioxide, no filler!

B Vitamin Crash Course

The B Vitamins are involved in so many physiological functions, but they are heavily involved and priceless in the context of energy metabolism

Below is a diagram that illustrates the process of energy production in the cell, and specifically in the mitochondria. It is not all inclusive, but provides a good list of the micronutrients that are required at each step of the energy metabolism process. 


mitochrondria nutrients b vitamins
Beginning with carbohydrates, proteins, or fats, the body must convert these dietary inputs into Acetyl-CoA, which is what kicks off the energy production process in the mitochondria. 

In the mitochondria, The Citric Acid Cycle (TCA) (aka Kreb's Cycle), and the Electron Transport Chain (ETC) are responsible for the majority of our energy (ATP) production

The important thing to note here is:  
There are many many steps involved in these energy processes, and each step of the way is facilitated by an enzyme. Enzymes require micronutrients for their function, like Magnesium, Copper, Zinc, Vitamin C, and of course, the B vitamins. 


PRODUCT SPOTLIGHTS:


Benfotiamine

Benfotiamine is a fat-soluble form of Vitamin B1 Thiamine. Benfotiamine has been extensively studied to have a much higher bioavailable capacity than the standard Thiamine HCl. Since it is fat soluble, and not water soluble, it is able to stay in the system for a longer period of time without being excreted. Research suggests it is 3-4x as effective [2,3]. 

Benfotiamine not only delivers a more bioactive array of benefits from Vitamin B1 around improving glucose utilization, pyruvate dehydrogenase activation, anti-tumor and anti-cancer effects, and neuroprotection [4-7], but also has added benefits of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect. It has been shown to reduce DNA damage [8], and mediate the inflammatory response caused by endotoxin (LPS) and PUFA [9]. 

Alcohol and Vitamin B1 have an inverse relationship, and there is evidence to suggest that B1 deficiency caused by alcohol, can cause iron-mediated brain damage [12]. B1 seems to be a very crucial component when it comes to recovering from alcohol use. Benfotiamine has also been shown to have a liver protective effect [11]. 


Niacinamide

Niacinamide does not need much of an introduction at this point. However, it is important to note that Niacinamide is much preferred over Niacin! Niacin commonly induces a 'flushing' reaction, which is just a nice way of saying inflammatory response [14]. 

Not only does Niacinamide not induce this inflammatory response, but it greatly increases our ability to utilize carbohydrates as energy, lowers free fatty acids in the blood, and increases cellular NAD+ levels. These processes make it an incredible tool, especially for someone who needs help switching to a diet with emphasis on burning carbohydrate efficiently as fuel. 

Important to note though, is that increased Niacinamide intake also requires an increased demand for the methyl donors [15].  Niacinamide must be methylated and therefore can use up high amounts of methyl donors. These donors are choline, methionine, B9 Folate, and B12. This is why Energi+ contains the most biologically active forms of both B9 and B12.


L5-Methyl Folate (MTHF)

L-5-MTHF is the most biologically active form of folate and is found in nature and in whole foods. 

Most supplemental folates are in the form of Folic Acid. The body has to convert folic acid into Methylfolate, and many people struggle with that process due to stress, current biological situation, genetics, and so forth. Unmetabolized folic acid in the body can cause problems [16-17]. 

L-5-MTHF can support methylation, in tandem with B12, which will not only maximize the efficiency of supplemental Niacinamide, but also helps many other processes such as DNA synthesis, hormone conversion, and homocysteine regulation

Adenosylcobalamin

Adenosylcobalamin is the form of B12 that is used directly in the mitochondria to create energy, in the Citric Acid Cycle. 

Most B complexes out there contain Methylcobalamin. Similar to L-5-MTHF, the body must convert methylcobalamin into adenosylcobalamin so that it can be used to create energy in the cell [18-19]. 

This makes Adenosylcobalamin the best choice when it comes to taking a B12 supplement that is going to be easily absorbed by the body, and assist in the energy production process as best possible. 


B Vitamin Cheat Sheet:

- Improve glucose use

B2 Riboflavin
- Required for FAD and FMN which are mitochondrial energy production enzymes
- Assists in carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism
- Facilitates the normalization of MTHFR enzyme activity
- Assists glutathione recycling

B3 Niacinamide
- Stimulates mitochondrial energy production
- Lowers free fatty acids in the blood
- Assists greatly with carbohydrate metabolism
- Increase NAD+
- May lower cholesterol
- Neuroprotection
