Vitamin B1

• Vitamin B1 is also known as thiamine, which is known to promote production of the amino acids necessary for a healthy nervous system. Although thiamine deficiencies are rare, they can cause sensory disturbances, paralysis and a loss of memory. Foods that are rich in vitamin B1 include brown rice, whole wheat bread and pork.
  
  

Vitamin B2

• Although vitamin B2, also called riboflavin, is generally associated with healthy digestion, a deficiency can lead to medical problems that have a negative impact on the nervous system. The nervous system requires a great deal of energy to operate effectively. Most of this energy is comes from the consumption and processing of food in the digestive tract. A healthy digestive system leads to a healthy nervous system. Foods high in vitamin B2 are broccoli, yogurt and cheese.
  
  

Viatmin B6

• Vitamin B6, also known as pyridoxine, supports the nervous system by providing essential materials for the synthesis of neurotransmitters, which are the chemical messengers that carry information across the system. Foods that contain vitamin B6 include potatoes, legumes and fish.
  
  

Vitamin B12

• Vitamin B12, or cobalamin, is an essential component of myelin, which is the material that covers and protects the nerves. While a deficiency in vitamin B12 can lead to neurological damage, a sufficient amount promotes strong nerve function. Foods that contain vitamin B12 are red meat, eggs and milk.
