The B vitamins, are vitamins which basic biochemical functions are distinct from each other, and they are called B vitamins because their natural food sources are the same (eg yeast), so any diseases caused by dietary deficiencies are never attributable to the lack of a single vitamin from the group B, but more frequently to a deficiency of all or nearly all.
The B vitamins act as coenzymes because facilitate the metabolism of carbohydrates, which are transformed into glucose used to produce energy. They also help the assimilation of proteins and lipids.
They are fundamental to the proper functioning of the nervous system.
If a person is tired, nervous and depressed, we can suspect a deficiency of B vitamins.
Even a skin disorder such as acne or dry skin can be a sign of deficiency of the group B, that's because vitamins have also a plastic value as they facilitate the construction of new cells, help the skin of the hair and the liver.

The absorption of the vitamins of the B group is facilitated by the presence of Vitamin C, Vitamin E and by the presence of calcium.
These vitamins are water soluble so there are no problems due to overdoses since any excess is disposed of easily.
