Product Details
This water-soluble B vitamin plays a highly important role in the normal functioning of the brain, nervous system & production of red blood cells
What it is
Most of us obtain enough vitamin B12 through our diet but after the age of 50 some people have difficulty in absorbing it from food. It could be worth supplementing this important vitamin as even a milk deficiency can significantly increase the risk of depression, heart disease & possibly Alzheimer’s disease.
What it does
Vitamin B12 is vital for cell replication & contributes towards normal blood formation. It also plays a vital role in the function of the neurological system as nerve cells need B12 to form a fatty layer that coats them & protect them against damage. Along with other vitamins, B12 also contributes to normal hormosysteine levels in the body. When homosysteine levels are too high this has been linked to memory loss & Alzheimer’s so supplementation may be beneficial in helping maintain a good memory.

Caution
It is advisable to take folic acid along with B12 supplement as a high intake of one can mask a deficiency of the other. If you have been diagnosed with pernicious anaemia, follow up blood tests may be necessary by a doctor.
DID YOU KNOW that animal foods are the main source of vitamin B12 so vegetarians & vegans often benefit for B12 supplement.
