B vitamin complex/Increased metabolism?

I just started taking B Complex yesterday, too. I friend told me it really helped her, so I thought I'd give it a try. I also take Fish Oil and Red Yeast Rice (for cholesterol) and a probiotic.

Try pineapple for breakfast, it's a great metabolism booster!

Like anything else, you don't want to go overboard on the B vitamins. The question is, what's the right amount for you as an individual? It may not be so easy to tell without some lab tests. I used to think I was getting plenty from my multivitamin, but when my doctor ran tests on me last fall she said I either wasn't absorbing it or needed more for whatever reason. She had me switch to a sublingual dose instead of the pills and re-tested me a couple of months later and it was in the right range. There's a lot of great info on nutrition and ways you can try to boost your metabolism on the realage.com site. Search for Vitamin B there, and Vitamin B overdose, if you want to see some of the studies on it.
