Product analysis

57 out of 100

Anti-Fatigue combines B vitamins and vitamin C to support normal energy metabolism and help address low nutrient intake. Licorice has neither an amount nor a form disclosed, making that part of the formula harder to assess.

AI assessment of the formula, label and price. How scoring works

Nutrient Quality44

Vitamin B5 is supplied in a well-supported usable form. The quality of the other nutrients is less certain, while the niacin and licorice forms are not disclosed.

Ingredient Transparency85

Most nutrient amounts and forms are clearly listed. Licorice is missing both details, and the niacin form is also absent.

Value For Money34

The vitamin C and B5 amounts are relatively expensive at the whole-product price. Value for the remaining nutrients cannot be established confidently.

Customer Satisfaction69

Customer ratings are positive, though based on a modest review pool. The feedback does not establish fatigue relief.

Product Focus65

The B vitamins and vitamin C mainly support normal nutrition and energy metabolism. Benefits for tiredness are most relevant to low intake, and generous amounts do not establish extra energy or productivity.

Advanced B Complex

AOR Advanced Orthomolecular Research Advanced

Benfotiamine, riboflavin 5-phosphate, P-5-P, methylfolate, methylcobalamin, and pantethine create a more refined and complete B-complex. The concentrated niacin and other B-vitamin amounts still require deliberate use, but the profile is more balanced than the original's extreme pantothenic acid and B12 dosing.

83 Performance

Multi-B Benfotiamine 150 mg

BenfoComplete.com

Benfotiamine and methylcobalamin improve form quality while moderate amounts of B2, B6, folate, and B5 create a more coherent formula. Folic acid and pyridoxine are less preferred forms, but the product avoids the original's licorice uncertainty and extreme B5 dose.

70 Performance

Coenzymate B Complex Peppermint

Source Naturals

Active riboflavin, P-5-P, hydroxocobalamin, and methylcobalamin provide stronger form quality and broader B-vitamin support. Ambiguous duplicate totals and folic acid reduce clarity, but the formula is more targeted and balanced than the original.

78 Budget

Super Stress B-Complex with Vitamin C

Swanson

A complete B-complex with 500 mg of vitamin C offers broader coverage and lower serving cost than the original. Pantothenic acid is reduced from the original's unusually high amount, though 25 mg of pyridoxine remains a long-term-use consideration.

76 Budget

B-Complex with Vitamin C Stress Formula

Solgar

Vitamin C and a clearly dosed B-complex provide a close stress-and-energy alternative with better serving value. The standard vitamin forms and undefined herbal blend limit ingredient quality, but the formula avoids the original's undisclosed licorice amount.

79 Budget

B-100 Complex

21st Century

Broad B-vitamin coverage provides a cheaper, fully measured alternative to the original unbalanced formula. The 100 mg pyridoxine amount is a substantial drawback for prolonged use, even though pantothenic acid and B12 are less extreme than in the original.

79 Value

Sublingual Liquid B Complex

Nature's Bounty

A low-cost liquid format provides active riboflavin plus measured niacin, B6, B12, and pantothenic acid without an opaque botanical addition. Cyanocobalamin remains a basic B12 form, but the lower B6 and B5 amounts create a more practical balance.

79 Value

Sublingual Liquid B-12 2000 mcg with B-Complex

Solgar

Active riboflavin and a broader liquid B-complex provide stronger coverage and favorable serving value. The B12 amount is still very high and uses cyanocobalamin, but the formula is fully measured and omits the original's unspecified licorice.

78 Value

Super Stress B-Complex with Vitamin C

Swanson

Vitamin C and a complete B-vitamin panel offer more even nutrient coverage with strong serving value. Conventional forms and elevated pyridoxine are trade-offs, but the stated formula is easier to assess than the original's licorice-containing profile.
