Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 supplements provide an important nutrient involved in several essential processes within the body. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy metabolism, supports the normal functioning of the nervous system and plays a role in the formation of red blood cells.
Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is a water-soluble vitamin naturally found in foods such as meat, fish, dairy products and eggs. Because it is mainly present in animal-based foods, some people choose to supplement their intake depending on dietary preferences.
The Role of Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 contributes to normal psychological function and helps support the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. It also contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism and supports the normal function of the immune system.
Maintaining adequate vitamin B12 intake is an important part of balanced nutrition and overall wellbeing.
Vitamin B12 Supplement Formats
Vitamin B12 supplements are available in a range of formats including tablets, capsules, dissolvable nuggets, liquids and advanced formulations. Some supplements use forms such as methylcobalamin or cyanocobalamin depending on the formulation.
