Designs for Health Methylated Vitamin B Complex - 120 Capsules

Benefits of Methylated B Complex

This high-quality B-complex delivers a wide range of wellness benefits. The methylated forms in this formula support methylation—a vital biochemical process that aids DNA repair, detoxification, and neurotransmitter balance. Many users notice improved energy, clearer thinking, and a more stable mood after adding active B vitamins to their daily routine.* B vitamins also help maintain healthy homocysteine levels, which is important for heart health.* For individuals with MTHFR gene variants, methylated forms like methylfolate and methylcobalamin bypass common genetic limitations, making this formula particularly effective. Trimethylglycine (TMG) and choline are also included to further support methylation pathways and enhance the bioavailability of the B vitamins.

Key Ingredients & Forms

Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin)

Rather than cyanocobalamin (a synthetic form), this product uses methylcobalamin—the naturally occurring, bioactive form that is easily used by the brain and nervous system.

Folate (Quatrefolic)

Quatrefolic is the (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate glucosamine salt, a highly stable and bioavailable form of folate. It is especially beneficial for individuals with MTHFR mutations who cannot efficiently convert folic acid.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate)

As the active coenzyme form, P-5-P supports neurotransmitter synthesis and homocysteine metabolism without requiring hepatic conversion.

Other B Vitamins

The formula also includes B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), and B7 (biotin) to provide comprehensive support for energy production and metabolic health.

How to Choose the Right B-Complex

When selecting a B-complex, it's important to prioritize formulations that use active, methylated forms—especially if you have a known MTHFR polymorphism or experience fatigue despite a healthy diet. Look for transparent labelling that specifies the exact form and dosage of each B vitamin. Designs for Health Methylated B Complex is vegan, non-GMO, and free from gluten, dairy, and soy, making it suitable for most dietary preferences. It is also the #1 practitioner supplement brand recommended by functional medicine professionals, reflecting its quality and clinical trust.*

How to Take B-Complex

Take one capsule daily with a meal to enhance absorption and reduce the likelihood of stomach upset. It is best taken in the morning or early afternoon, as B vitamins can be energising and may interfere with sleep if taken late. This product is designed for long-term daily use, but we advise consulting your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen.

Side Effects and Interactions

B vitamins are generally safe and well-tolerated. High doses of B3 (niacin) may cause temporary flushing or itching, and excess B6 over prolonged periods can lead to nerve symptoms. It is normal for urine to turn bright yellow from riboflavin (B2) supplementation—this is harmless. If you are taking medications, particularly for Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, or chemotherapy, consult your doctor, as B vitamins can interact with certain drugs. Always consult your healthcare practitioner before use. This product has not been evaluated by Health Canada. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, , or prevent any disease.

What Is B-Complex?

B-complex refers to the eight essential B vitamins that work together to support many bodily functions. These water-soluble nutrients play a key role in converting food into cellular energy, supporting a healthy nervous system, and promoting red blood cell formation. A comprehensive B-complex ensures balanced intake, since these vitamins often rely on one another for optimal function. Designs for Health Methylated B Complex goes further by supplying most B vitamins in their coenzymated or methylated forms—meaning they are already in the active state your body can use without needing additional conversion.
