About our methylated sublingual vitamin B12 tablets
A high potency, active, vitamin B12 supplement providing a combined dose of methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, which are both active forms of B12 of this important vitamin.
Contains 500µg of methylcobalamin and 500µg of adenosylcobalamin.
People at particular risk of vitamin B12 deficiency include those eating a vegan or vegetarian diet, and people with low stomach acid or other digestive conditions which can lead to malabsorption.
- Our Vitamin B12 Sublingual provides the active forms of vitamin B12
- Methylcobalamin is the active form used in the methylation cycle. Methylation reactions occur within every cell in the body
- Adenosylcobalamin is the active form that is used in the mitochondria (which are the energy power houses of cells)
- Sublingual means 'beneath the tongue' - our tiny vitamin B12 tablets will dissolve in the mouth allowing rapid oral absorption and noticeable results
What can contribute to vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency is not uncommon and can be caused by:

- Long-term prescription medications can impair vitamin B12 absorption.
- Vegan and vegetarian diets, as vitamin B12 is primarily bound to animal proteins
