Natural Factors B12 (Methylcobalamin) -- 1000 mcg - 90 Sublingual Tablets

Natural Factors B12 (Methylcobalamin) -- 1000 mcg - 90 Sublingual Tablets

Biologically Active Form of B12 • Support For Nerve Function, Energy Production & Red Blood Cells. The methylcobalamin form, absorbed sublingually (under the tongue), is the most active form of vitamin B12 and is shown to have advantages over cyanocobalamin and all other forms of B12, including injections. It absorbs as readily, but keeps blood levels high. Injections provide a B12 surge, followed by a drop to a plateau level. Methylcobalamin is active immediately upon absorption as compared to cyanocobalamin that must first be converted to methylcobalamin by the body. B12 supplementation is recommended for vegetarians and those suffering from B12 deficiency. All Natural Factors products are manufactured in accordance with the Government of Canada's Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), among the highest standards in the world.

"I haven't experienced any bad effects of trying to take this vitamin. There's no bad taste -- during or after. The only reason I rated 4 stars in effectiveness is because I've taken it only about 3 weeks. I can't say I've noticed a big change in my energy level. I'm still hopeful and plan to continue to try it another couple of months."

"My wife has been taking this product for the last two years. She had some blood tests accomplished and the doctor asked if she recently had a vitamin B-12 shot because the reading was so high--so, we really know the product works! It also dissolves extremely fast."

"After considerable research, I settled on sublingual methylcobalamin. Methylcobalamin is the most absorbable form of B12. Even more is absorbed in the mouth than in the intestines. I was pleasantly surprised by the cherry flavour and the speed with which it dissolved. I noticed an increase in energy within an hour, which lasted most of the day. I also noticed that my sleep/wake schedule shifted to a more natural, daylight-free 8 hours. Before, I sometimes napped in the afternoon because I didn't sleep enough at night. I also noticed a sense of well-being along with the increase in energy. I do not have stomach problems after taking this product."

"I USE THIS PRODUCT BECAUSE AS YOU GET OLDER YOU ARE UNABLE TO OBTAIN THE BENEFITS OF VITAMIN B12 FROM THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM THEREFORE IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU GET THIS IN A SUBLINGUAL FORM. B12 IS SUPPOSSED TO HELP IMPROVE MEMORY FUNCTION-IMPORTANT FOR OLDER PEOPLE. THIS IS ALSO THE BEST FORM OF B12-STAY AWAY FROM CYANCOBOLAMIN."

"Methylcobalamin is currently the best quality and most absorbable form of b-12 on the market. This tiny pink tablet dissolves under the tongue with a faint fruit flavor and is gone in about 60-90 seconds. I have read studies showing that absorbability is the same as a b-12 injection, so I get my b-12 without a doctor visit. As an active person, b-12 noticably helps my endurance, but the biggest benefit is the normalized sleeping pattern it establishes. I have tried other sublingual b-12's, but many have an off taste or take far too long to dissolve. This brand strikes the best balance between effectiveness, taste and price."
