What Does Vitamin B12 Contribute To?

B12 Deficiency Statistics & Who Needs It Most
Vitamin B12 is primarily found in animal products like meat, fish, and dairy. Supplementation is widely recommended for specific groups prone to low B12 status.
According to NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) vitamin B12 deficiency can affect the following groups:
-
Plant-Based Diets: Approximately 11% of individuals on plant-based (vegan/vegetarian) diets suffer from low B12 status.
-
Adults Under 60 (UK): Low B12 status affects roughly 6% of the UK population under 60.
-
Adults Over 60 (UK): Low B12 status increases to 20% in people over 60, as nutrient absorption naturally declines with age.
-
Over 70s: Recommended as essential dietary support due to reduced absorption efficiency and potential dietary changes.
* We recommend speaking with your healthcare provider before taking supplements, particularly if you are on medication.
Why Choose Methylcobalamin Over Cyanocobalamin?
Unlike standard supplements that use synthetic cyanocobalamin, this formula uses methylcobalamin - a natural, bioavailable form of Vitamin B12 that the body can readily utilise. Tablets are used instead of capsules to deliver highly concentrated levels in a compact, easy-to-swallow size.
Formulated and manufactured in the UK to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards, this formula is suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.
