Vitamin B 12 Benefits
Also known as cobalamin, vitamin B 12 is a water-soluble vitamin found primarily in meats and meat products. Vitamin B 12 is necessary for the synthesis of red blood cells, the maintenance of the nervous system, and growth and development in children. Vitamin B 12 deficiencies may cause anemia and a number of other disorders.
Vitamin B 12, like all our supplements, must undergo rigorous quality control measures before reaching the shelf. Outside expert labs perform comprehensive tests on all raw materials and finished products for optimum potency, purity, and freedom from harmful contaminants such as metals, herbicides, and chemicals.

Why Take a Vitamin B 12 Supplement?
While it is certainly possible for a person to get vitamin B 12 naturally through their diet, some people do not. For those who are not getting enough vitamin B 12 through their current diet, vitamin B 12 supplements may be the solution.
Who Might Need a Vitamin B 12 Supplement?
Although many get sufficient amounts of vitamin B 12 through their diets, certain groups of people may be at risk of developing a deficiency. Individuals from this group include the elderly and individuals with gastrointestinal disorders; in addition, many health care professionals consider a vegetarian diet to provide insufficient vitamin B 12.
Possible signs of a vitamin B12 deficiency may include fatigue, weakness, nausea, constipation, loss of appetite, and weight loss. A B 12 deficiency can also lead to neurological symptoms such as numbness and tingling in the hands and feet. Vitamin B 12 side effects are quite rare, and most often are associated with the liquid form used for B 12 injections. If you are considering adding a vitamin B 12 supplement to your diet, please consult with your physician as it may interact with some medications.
