Now Foods Methyl B-12 5.000 mcg 60 lozenges

Methylcobalamin (B-12) plays an active role in the formation of red blood cells, the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system, and the regulation of the immune system.

According to international literature, methylcobalamin has metabolic benefits and potential therapeutic applications that are not offered by other forms of vitamin B-12. Although cyanocobalamin is the most common form of vitamin B-12 in dietary supplements, it is necessary to convert it to methylcobalamin or adenosylcobalamin.

Methylcobalamin participates in the synthesis of methionine. This contributes to the reduction of homocysteine ​​levels, which is recognized as a risk factor responsible for the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases. It is also important for the formation of the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin.

Nutritional deficiencies, enzyme defects, and tissue abnormalities can reduce the body's ability to synthesize these active forms. Cobalamin deficiency can cause megaloblastic anemia, peripheral neuropathy, irritability, dementia, depression, increased risk of myocardial infarction, and stroke.

The biologically active form Methyl B-12 is a potent donor of methyl groups to the myelin sheath, which insulates nerve fibers and regenerates damaged neurons.
