In general all vitamins are water soluble or fat soluble. The fat soluble vitamins are : A,D,E and K. They are stored in the fat deposits all over the body and also in the liver. Because they are fat soluble they can present some dangers taken in large quantities: toxicity is one of the problem. The B and C vitamins are water soluble. They don't present such a big danger in large quantities because they are excreted with ease in the urine. They are also found in the liver.
The B vitamins are represented by a group of eight different vitamins. We're gone talk about only two important vitamins: B1 - also called Thiamine and B2- Riboflavin. All of them have to role of breaking down the carbohydrates into glucose so that the body will have the needed energy. The nervous system also benefits from them because the B vitamin also breaks down the proteins and fats. They are present in our skin, hair, eyes, mouth and liver.
Like most of the vitamins the best way to take them is not by taking lots and lots of pills but by absorbing them from our well balanced food. A high concentration of vitamin B can be found in: nuts, rice, eggs, fish, fruits and other foods.
Thiamine will break the carbohydrate into sugar and glucose. The B vitamin will form an enzyme after the mix with other substances from our body. These enzymes will speed up the chemical reactions in our body. An important role is that of a neurotransmitter. Even in massive doses these vitamins are not bad for the body because the excretion process will eliminate most of it.
Riboflavin it's important because it breaks down the fats and proteins. The skin and the cornea of the eye are also dependable on this vitamin. A deficiency can cause inflammation of tissue, anaemia and a light-sensitive eye and the place where the body usually stores it is in the kidney and liver.
