Vitamins

 Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) – The Cellular Shield

Vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant that plays a critical role in:

  • Neutralizing free radicals, reducing oxidative stress
  • Regenerating glutathione, extending its antioxidant power
  • Supporting collagen synthesis, which is vital for tissue repair and vascular health
  • Enhancing iron absorption and immune function

In Velocity, vitamin C works synergistically with glutathione and polyphenols to form a multi-layered antioxidant defense system. It also helps maintain the redox balance that supports brain and muscle performance under stress.

B Vitamins in Velocity: The Energy Enablers

B vitamins act as coenzymes—they don’t provide energy directly, but they’re essential for converting carbs, fats, and proteins into ATP (your body’s energy currency). Here’s how each one in your formula contributes:

 Vitamin B3 (Niacin)

  • Converts food into energy via NAD/NADP, key molecules in cellular respiration
  • Supports DNA repair and neurotransmitter synthesis
  • Helps regulate cholesterol and blood flow, enhancing oxygen delivery to tissues

Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid)

  • Forms Coenzyme A, essential for the Krebs cycle and fatty acid metabolism
  • Supports adrenal function, helping the body respond to stress
  • Aids in the synthesis of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter tied to memory and focus

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine)

  • Involved in over 100 enzymatic reactions, especially in amino acid metabolism
  • Crucial for neurotransmitter production (dopamine, serotonin, GABA)
  • Supports immune function and homocysteine regulation, protecting cardiovascular health

 Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin)

  • Essential for red blood cell formation and oxygen transport
  • Supports myelin sheath integrity, protecting nerve function
  • Works with B6 and folate to regulate homocysteine, reducing inflammation and brain fog

Biotin (Vitamin B7)

  • Supports fatty acid synthesis and glucose metabolism
  • Plays a role in gene expression and cell signaling
  • Promotes healthy skin, hair, and nails, but also contributes to steady energy release

Synergy in the Stack

Together, these vitamins:

  • Fuel mitochondrial energy production, amplifying the effects of caffeine, ginseng, and nootropics
  • Support neurotransmitter balance, enhancing mood, focus, and cognitive stamina
  • Regenerate antioxidants like glutathione and vitamin C, extending their protective effects
  • Buffer stress and support adrenal resilience, helping you stay sharp under pressure
