Super B-Complex. Help?

My mom takes Super B-Complex tablets that claim to help convert food into energy. Does anyone know anything about this? Are they just like a type of vitamin (they're by the Nature Made brand)? Just wondering if I'd see any benefits to taking them. :)

    I take them along with the One A Day Energy vitamin and if I do not take them I am tired all day. I know it isn't just missing the One A Day vitamin because I used to take just that and not the Super B Complex. I definitely get more energized when I have the vitamins in me.

    I took a B-complex, but I just recently listend to a podcast by the Nutrition Diva called Quick and Dirty Tips and she basically said it is an extreme overdose and you don't need them. I think the title of the podcast is the truth about B-vitamins or something like that.

    I also take them (the Nature Made brand). I notice that I do feel more energized... but that doesn't mean I'm burning more calories. If you take it regularly, you might loose any sluggish-ness that you have... That tends to make me want to go to the gym more. :)
