Puritan’s Pride Green Source Overall Review: 3 out of 5.
Green Source contains 1,667% of the Daily Value of Thiamin or Vitamin B1. Vitamin B1 can have very positive effects on the nervous system and the brain. It is a neurotransmitter and is used in the learning process and memory function. Vitamin B1 also produces hydrochloric acid which aids in the digestion process. Finally, it is known to help convert carbohydrates into energy.
Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) also helps convert carbohydrates into fuel, just like all the other B Vitamins. Vitamin B2 also has antioxidant properties, feeding on free radicals that can cause the body harm. Free radicals are created naturally in the body, but also have a negative aspect of damaging DNA and cells and possibly contributing to the process of aging.
As the vitamin’s name suggests, there are “green” elements in the formula: Lutein is one of them. Lutein is a naturally-occurring pigment in green vegetables and other foods – even egg yolks. It can provide the nutrition that our eyes and skin need, and may even reduce the chance of macular degeneration. Some studies may show that it also has antioxidant properties relating to the skin.
