Methyl-B12 Lozenge 5,000 mcg Vitamin B12 Methylcobalamin Tablets

Methyl-B₁₂ Lozenge (60 Tablets)

DESCRIPTION
Methyl-B₁₂ Lozenge provides 5,000 mcg of vitamin B₁₂ as methylcobalamin, the active form especially useful for supporting neurological function and homocysteine metabolism.  These fast-dissolving tablets contain a high concentration of vitamin B₁₂.

FUNCTIONS
Studies show that B₁₂ can be absorbed by passive diffusion across intestinal membranes when intake is greatly increased. Methyl-B₁₂ Lozenge is a good choice for those requiring extra vitamin B₁₂. Tablets should be dissolved in the mouth and swallowed. Scored tablets contain natural cherry flavor and xylitol and mannitol as sweetening agents.

Studies indicate that methylcobalamin, a coenzyme form of vitamin B₁₂, may be better utilized and better retained in the body due to its methyl structure. Certain populations, including the elderly, immune-compromised, use of proton-pump inhibitors, and strict vegetarians are often at risk for vitamin B₁₂ deficiency, either due to low dietary intake or impaired absorption. Intrinsic factor, a protein produced by cells in the stomach lining, is needed by the intestines to absorb vitamin B₁₂ efficiently. Certain populations, including the elderly and those unable to effectively produce intrinsic factor due to certain medications, can be more susceptible to B₁₂ deficiency. Methyl-B₁₂ Lozenge provides vitamin B₁₂ in a lozenge form that bypasses the stomach and does not require intrinsic factor for absorption.
