PILLAR Ultra B Active

PILLAR ULTRA B ACTIVE – High-Potency Energy & Performance Support

ULTRA B ACTIVE is a high-strength vitamin B complex formulation featuring activated forms of vitamin B2, B6, and mecobalamin (B12), combined with other essential B-group vitamins to optimize energy levels, combat fatigue, and support nervous system health.

Who It's For & What It Does

Designed for athletes, active individuals, and anyone experiencing fatigue or energy dips, ULTRA B ACTIVE delivers the activated B vitamins your body needs to efficiently metabolize carbohydrates, proteins, and fats – turning food into usable energy while supporting cognitive function and nervous system health.

Perfect for vegans, vegetarians, and anyone following plant-based diets, as vitamin B12 is generally not found in plant foods.

Premium Activated Formula

ULTRA B ACTIVE features upper-level doses of the most bioavailable forms:

• Mecobalamin (Vitamin B12): 300 mcg
• Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (Vitamin B6): 15 mg

These activated forms are more readily absorbed and utilized by your body compared to standard B vitamin supplements.

Why B Vitamins Matter for Athletes

Vitamin B is crucial for athletes due to its role in numerous metabolic processes directly related to performance, including:

• Energy production
• Red blood cell formation
• Muscle building and repair
• Protein and amino acid metabolism
• Carbohydrate conversion to fuel

During exercise, your body relies on B vitamins to break down amino acids for energy in muscles and convert lactic acid to glucose in the liver – making adequate B vitamin levels essential for sustained performance and recovery.

The Science Behind the Activated Forms

Mecobalamin (Activated Vitamin B12) – The bioavailable and metabolically active coenzyme form of vitamin B12, more readily absorbed by the liver than standard cyanocobalamin. Best known for boosting energy levels and supporting red blood cell formation. Essential for vegans and vegetarians, as B12 is generally not found in plant-based foods.

Benfotiamine (Activated Vitamin B1) – The activated form of thiamin plays a critical role in converting carbohydrates into energy. Without adequate thiamin, nervous system function is compromised, impairing everyday abilities like walking, cognition, and speech.

Riboflavin-5-phosphate (Activated Vitamin B2) – The activated form that supports your body in converting food into energy. It also helps other vitamins perform their functions, including folate, vitamin B6, niacin, iron, and vitamin K – making it a key player in overall nutrient metabolism.

Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (Activated Vitamin B6) – The most biologically active form of vitamin B6, essential for protein and amino acid metabolism. During exercise, PLP-containing enzymes are necessary for the gluconeogenic process – breaking down amino acids for muscle energy and converting lactic acid to glucose in the liver. This metabolically driven process is crucial for sustained athletic performance.
