B12 is a generic term for a number of related compounds that are essential for the production of fatty acids in myelin and for DNA synthesis.

The B complex vitamins are thiamine (B1), ribo avin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), folate (B9), cyanocobalamin (B12) and biotin.

Supplementation with folate should occur prior to conception and throughout the first twelve weeks of pregnancy to reduce the risk of neural tube defects (NTDs) in newborns.

Saw palmetto may improve symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or chronic prostatitis and may be used in conjunction with other medicines to improve benefits.
