Essential for Cellular Health
There are eight B vitamins, each with their own set of important roles in maintaining health throughout the body. Methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B12 that is active in the central nervous system. It is essential to the growth and replication of cells. Our lozenges supply 500 mcg of methylcobalamin each.
Product Details
Vitamin B12 is present in foods of animal origin, including dairy products and eggs. Vegetarians and the elderly are especially susceptible to deficiency of this important nutrient, which may be caused by low dietary intake, inadequate bioavailability or poor absorption of B12.

B12 Supplementation To overcome obstacles to vitamin B12 absorption, the Institute of Medicine recommended in 1998 that vitamin B12-fortified foods (such as fortified ready-to-eat breakfast cereals) and supplements containing vitamin B12 be used by older adults to help meet their B12 requirement.
