Description
VeganSafe B-12 is a certified organic, vegan formula that contains methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, the two most bioactive forms of B-12. Although most of us simply know vitamin B-12 as the B vitamin responsible for energy production, it’s important to understand that “vitamin B-12” is actually a catch-all term for a class of vitamins known as cobalamins — and they’re not equal in their benefits.

FAQ’s
Why is B-12 absorption a problem for some people?
B-12 is the largest vitamin known and difficult to absorb. Additionally, the gut produces something called intrinsic factor, this helps the body absorb B-12. Without intrinsic factor, B-12 just exits the body. As we get older, the availability of intrinsic factor decreases and the risk for B-12 deficiency increases.
Who needs B-12?
We all do! However, some folks need to pay special attention. Those who drink, take antibiotics, use antacids, or smoke, vegetarians and vegans, persons with trouble sleeping, pregnant and breast-feeding women, the elderly, people who suffer from celiac disease or have difficulty digesting gluten and absorbing nutrients, and people who are affected by harmful organisms may all be advised to keep their B-12 needs met.
Does B-12 affect homocysteine levels?
Homocysteine levels are an independent stressor on the cardiovascular system and can be responsible for poor heart and cardiovascular health. Vitamin B6 and folic acid work synergistically with vitamin B12 to promote normal homocysteine levels.
