Solution
The correct option is C Tocopherol
Vitamin B complex is composed of eight B vitamins:
Vit B-1 (thiamine), Vit B-2 (riboflavin), Vit B-3 (niacin), Vit B-5 (pantothenic acid), Vit B-6 (pyridoxine), Vit B-7 (biotin), Vit B-9 (folic acid), Vit B-12 (cyanocobalamin).
Vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) is a fat-soluble vitamin and a potent antioxidant in protecting cells from oxidative stress, regulating immune function. Hence, Tocopherol does not belong to the vitamin B group.
