B-Vitamin Complex Premix
Natural Folate, B12, Biotin and B6, sourced from spinach, shiitake mushroom, sunflower seed and lemon peel
A full B-complex claim story at a near-invisible inclusion
The B-vitamins are the foundation of energy, mood and cognitive positioning - and the group where vegan and vegetarian ranges most need a credible natural source.
Folate, B12, Biotin and B6 deliver a broad B-complex claim set at a very small inclusion weight, all plant- and fungi-derived with a recognisable declaration.
Samples are dispatched within a week, with reformulation support included - and at 0.0055 g per portion, the complex drops into an existing formulation without touching taste, texture or process.

Frequently asked questions
Practical answers to the questions buyers ask most when specifying a natural B-complex premix.
Very little. The natural variant needs only 0.0055 g per portion for “Source of” claims across all four B vitamins - the lightest blend in the range, which makes it both cost-effective and effectively invisible in a formulation.
Yes. B12 from shiitake mushroom is a natural, plant-friendly source, making this blend a clean way to add the B12 claim to vegan and vegetarian-positioned ranges where it is a recognised category need.
Functional beverages, supplements, capsules, energy drinks, shakes, snack bars and any product seeking a B-complex positioning. Its very low inclusion weight means it slots into existing recipes without crowding the formulation.

Reformulation support is included
Every BIOVIT wholesale order comes with full technical reformulation support at no extra cost, giving your NPD and technical teams direct access to a qualified nutritionist from brief to production.
Eiméar Sutton (RNutr MSc), our Head of Nutrition, leads the technical work on every account: equivalence mapping against your incumbent synthetic, inclusion-rate modelling, on-pack claim wording aligned to GB and EU regulation, and the small details that decide whether a synthetic-to-natural switch lands cleanly on the production line.
The result: shorter development cycles, fewer reformulation rounds, and a finished product your commercial team can stand behind.
