From the book "The Vitamin & Health Encyclopedia" by Jack Richardson:

B3 = Niacin
B5 = Pantothenic acid
B13 = Orotic acid
B15 = Pangamic acid
B17 = Laetrile

Vitamin B Factors mentioned - Inositol, Choine & Folic acid

This list is straight from the book.  If someone feels a need to re-open the
Laetrile debate please either reference the above mentioned book or make it
your own seperate subject.  I guess that B13 & B15 are open subjects as Craig
had not mentioned them.
