Does vitamin b cause weight gain?

I started taking Vitamin B supplements recently for energy and overall well-being. My neighbor told me that some vitamins can actually lead to weight gain. Does taking Vitamin B cause weight gain? I'm trying to maintain my current weight.

Haan na, thoda appetite badhta hai Vitamin B lene se, toh weight gain ho sakta hai if we eat more. But directly fat gain nahi hota isse. It actually helps in energy levels, so that is good.

Vitamin B complex does not cause weight gain. In fact, it helps convert your food into energy and boosts metabolism. If you are gaining weight, you should look at your daily calorie intake and physical activity.

Some people feel their appetite increases slightly when they start taking Vitamin B, which can lead to weight gain if you aren't careful. Just watch your portions and stay active, and you won't have any weight issues.

I've been taking Vitamin B12 supplements for a month now. My weight has stayed exactly the same, but my daily energy levels have definitely gone up. No need to worry about getting fat from it.

I take Vitamin B supplements because of my thyroid issues. It has never caused me to gain weight; rather, thyroid fluctuations are the main culprit. Make sure to get your thyroid tested regularly if you face unexplained weight issues.
