Energy production and B vitamins

B vitamins act as a coenzyme, and are essential for processing carbohydrates, lipids and proteins in order to generate energy. When exercising, it is the energy source substance ATP (adenosine triphosphate) that becomes the driving force for moving the muscles. For your body to be able to break down carbohydrates and lipids, and continue ATP production, it is very important to get a good balance of B vitamins.
