Like all the B vitamins, vitamin B12 (also known as cobalamin) plays a critical role in psychological function, energy release, and immunity. Since this vitamin is mainly found in animal-based foods, such as meat, fish, and dairy, nutritionists often recommend vitamin B12 to those on plant-based diets.
Vitamin B12 tablets are also increasingly recommended to the over 70’s, who may have a compromised diet.Our high-performance vitamin B12 tablets provide 100µg, a popular amount to take alongside a multivitamin.
We’ve chosen to formulate our Vitamin B12 100µg in small, easy to swallow tablets – not capsules – since they can deliver highly concentrated levels of vitamin B12 in a convenient, one a day dose.
In the UK low vitamin B12 status is around 6% in people aged less than 60 years, rising to 20% in those aged over 60 years and around 11% for those on plant-based diets.
Our formulation uses the methylcobalamin form of vitamin B12 as a natural alternative to the more commonly used synthetic form cyanocobalamin.
Our formula is made in UK factories working to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), ensuring our strict quality standards are always met.
This product is suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.
