Answer Hi,
The B vitamins are a set of water soluble vitamins that are essential in metabolism and maintenance of cell integrity including nerve cells.
Defficiency of each vitamin results is a specific set of symtoms. For example: Vitamin B12 ceficciency causes anemia, vitain B1 defficiency causes beriber, Vitamin B3 is useful in keeping cholesterol levels in check.
