Vitamins do not provide energy– BUT vitamins of the B complex help in the breakdown of carbohydrates into 
glucose.
This is where the energy boost comes in.
If you are on a low carbohydrate diet, or are avoiding carbohydrates completely, vitamin B and associated B sub groups cannot provide you with an energy boost.
What was earlier assumed to be one vitamin, vitamin B, has proven to be a bunch of separate and distinct vitamins. There is now a subdivision of the vitamin B complex to properly list all independent vitamins in the B category.
There Are 8 Vitamins Defined As the B Complex:
Thiamine or vitamin B1
Riboflavin or vitamin B2
Niacin or vitamin B3
Pantothenic Acid or vitamin B5
Pyridoxine or vitamin B6
Pyridoxamine and Pyridoxal
Biotin or vitamin B7
Folic Acid or vitamin B9, sometimes also referred to as vitamin M and vitamin B12 or Cobalamin.
Yes, I realize vitamins B4, B8, are missing. I don’t know why science does this.
There are Methylcobolamin and Adenosylcobalamin listed as the active forms of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is the only vitamin which cannot be found in plant products, therefore vegans and vegetarians have some trouble replacing this essential nutrient.
Other vitamin B sub-numbers have been assigned to various nutrients, but are currently not believed to be vitamins or essential to human survival. All of the eight vitamins in the B complex are available in several natural sources, such as bananas and potatoes, turkey, tuna and beer yeast. Quit jumping up and down beer fans, the alcohol in beer will only make you sleepy!
