B As Happy As A B!
(c) By Lena Sanchez
 
A simple little supplement that has such huge ramifications, if your body is devoid of sufficient amount!
 
Having suffered from motion sickness for my entire life I was not anticipating a trip across the ocean, even a short distance to Catalina Island by boat. Especially since all I had to do was walk out on a pier and look down through the boardwalk to become nauseous even to the point of vomiting, every time...  I mentioned this to one of my employees as I lamented about knowing I would ruin the day with my motion sickness. She then told me how she combats motion sickness, one each of B1, B6 & B Complex vitamins taken a two to three hours before departing, and for good measure the same the night before... So my husband and I took them the night before and again before we left to go to Long Beach - 45 minute drive - to get on the boat. Lo and behold, it worked. Had a great trip without an inkling of motion sickness, in fact most of others in our group were very ill on the return ride, due to a rough seas, but not husband or myself.
 
I must have been born B deficient, or at least it seemed that way, since my childhood was spent with motion sickness in my fathers wandering travels across country. Any back seat trip meant vomiting and a horrific time.
 
I now no longer experience motion sickness as I take daily supplemental meganutrient vitamins and ionic liquid minerals, which contain MegaB vitamins along with 84 minerals and trace minerals!
 
My older daughter had always suffered with canker/cold sores on her mouth and with my study into B vitamins a few years ago I discovered that was a common symptom of B deficiency... She is free of canker sores as long as she takes her liquid minerals and meganutrient vitamins!
 
In my study I found a lot of other symptoms that point to a B vitamin deficiency.
 
One of the most common classical symptom of B complex deficiency is depression and the tendency to cry without any particular reason, mostly seen in women. This is a trigger to let you know that you are dangerously lacking in B vitamins as and/or a multitude of minerals and trace minerals. 
 
Research conducted at Tufts University suggests that blood levels of various B vitamins that fall at the lower end of the "normal" range can interfere with mental dexterity. Even though it appears to be an acceptable range. A severe deficiency does not have to be present for memory impairment to occur. Taking B vitamins particularly B-12, B-6, folic acid, biotin and niacin may reverse memory problems, according to the study.
 
The participants in the study were given 10 times the RDA of B vitamins for more than a year and those taking the B vitamins demonstrated significant improvements in memory. 
 
A vitamin B complex deficiency puts a tremendous level of stress on the adrenal glands and often those deficient in the B's will also need adrenal supporting supplements.
 
A simple test can verify if you are in the adrenal compromised group;
Lay down and rest for a minimum of five minutes, have your blood pressure taken while lying. Then stand and immediately take the blood pressure to assess low adrenal function. The higher number of the blood pressure measurement should read at least ten points greater upon standing, than it was when lying down. If your blood pressure is not 10 points greater or if it goes down when you stand up, reduced adrenal function is suspect. The degree of hypoadrenalism is often proportionate to the degree the blood pressure drops (Balch, 1997: 91, 92).
 
If that's you, start a quality supplementation of Ionic minerals and MegaNutient vitamins with lots of B vitamins now. Repeat the test after two weeks of supplementing to see if you have progressed up or down.
 
In "Vitamin B Complex in Human Nutrition," Judith DeCava, Ph.D lists many other possible symptoms of a B complex deficiency as:  
Mild to severe depression - forgetfulness - vague fears  - uneasiness to panic - mood swings - rage - morbid  thoughts - hostility - restlessness - apprehension - constant feeling that something dreadful is going to  happen - suspicions - instability - anxiety - mental  confusion - noise sensitivity - inability to handle stress  - hearing noises, voices, etc. - loss of ability to  concentrate - impaired intellect - loss of memory - nervousness -  weakness - fatigue - lightheadedness or dizziness - digestive problems - hypochlorhydria (insufficient stomach acid production) - constipation or diarrhea - stomach pains - decreased or increased appetite - craving for sweets - heart palpitations - chest pains - neuralgia to neuritis - muscular soreness - pain, tingling or achiness - cold hands and feet - heightened sensitivity to touch and/or pain - menstrual complaints - soreness of the mouth - dermatitis - acne - burning or itching eyes - difficulty swallowing - sore throat - hypochondria - headaches - insomnia or sleep disturbances.
 
So "To B as happy as a B" should point the way "To B" if you have any of the symptoms noted above... It's  cheaper than going through a battery of tests that  the doctor will or should order and still fail to detect a  B deficiency... If after faithfully taking Minerals and  vitamins for a few weeks and the symptoms persist then see your doctor and/or do an internal colonic cleanse along with a 7-day cleansing diet! Your intestinal wall can be so blocked that absorption is difficult to impossible and needs to be removed with a colonic cleanse.
