As such, ensuring sufficient intake of the B-Vitamins may help in maximising our energy levels and general vitality. The amount of these vitamins necessary to achieve maximal energy efficiency is not known, but as they have low toxicity a greater and faster effect may be achieved with higher than 100% RDA intake.
