Jarrow Formulas Methyl B-12
Jarrow Formulas Methyl B-12 is a chewable vitamin B12 lozenge with a natural lemon flavour. It uses methylcobalamin, the active coenzyme form of B12, and dissolves in the mouth rather than being swallowed whole.
Key features
- Vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin, an active coenzyme form
- Natural lemon-flavoured chewable lozenges
- Three strengths: 500mcg, 1000mcg and 2500mcg per lozenge
- Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
- Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism
Methylcobalamin is often picked over cyanocobalamin, the more common synthetic form, because it is better absorbed and retained. B12 is mostly found in animal foods, so vegetarians and vegans often look for a supplement. A lozenge is also handy for anyone who finds tablets awkward to swallow.
Available as 100 lozenges in 500mcg, 1000mcg or 2500mcg strength.
