Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is a water-soluble vitamin that helps keep your body’s nerve and blood cells healthy while aiding in DNA synthesis. Since the body doesn’t produce B12 on its own, it must be obtained through diet or supplements.  

**Key Benefits:**  

- **Energy Metabolism:** B12 helps convert food into usable energy, reducing fatigue.  

- **Nerve & Brain Health:** Supports myelin sheath formation, which protects nerve cells.  

- **Red Blood Cell Production:** Prevents megaloblastic anemia by aiding proper red blood cell development.  

- **Heart Health:** Works with folate to regulate homocysteine levels, supporting cardiovascular function.  

**Who May Need It?**  

- Vegans/vegetarians (B12 is primarily found in meat, eggs, and dairy).  

- Older adults with reduced stomach acid (impairs B12 absorption).  

- Individuals with digestive conditions (e.g., celiac disease, Crohn’s).  

Available in tablets, sublingual drops, or injections, Vitamin B12 offers a convenient way to meet daily needs. Always consult a healthcare provider before starting supplements.
