Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) is a member of the B-complex of vitamins, normally needed in only minute amounts. Vitamin B12:

• Is necessary for the formation and regeneration of red blood cells which prevents anemia
  
• Promotes growth and increases appetite in children
  
• Increases energy
  
• Maintains a healthy nervous system

Many elderly people suffering from neurological impairment find that B12 supplementation greatly improves their cognitive function. Published studies show that vitamin B12 in supplement form is absorbed better by elderly people than vitamin B12 that is bound to food. Vitamin B12 is only found in animal source foods and is often deficient in vegetarian diets.

Cyanocobalamin is a synthetic and inexpensive form of vitamin B12 that is easily converted in the body to its bioactive forms, methylcobalamin and cobamamide.

Dosage and use

• One tablet 1 to 4 times daily is suggested for healthy people.
  
• Two tablets daily may be needed for those with B12 absorption problems.
  
• Even though this tablet comes in a form appropriate for sublingual use, it is just as effectively utilized when swallowed whole with a meal.
