NaturesPlus Vitamina B12 2000 mcg - 60 comprimidos de liberación sostenida - Metilcobalamina activa

What is vitamin B12 and why is it important?

Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is an essential vitamin for multiple bodily functions. It contributes to normal energy metabolism and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. In addition, it plays a key role in the normal functioning of the nervous system and in the formation of red blood cells. As a water-soluble nutrient, the body does not store it in large quantities, so it is important to ensure adequate intake through diet or supplementation.

What makes methylcobalamin special compared to other forms of B12?

Methylcobalamin is the biologically active form of vitamin B12. Unlike cyanocobalamin, which requires conversion in the liver, methylcobalamin is ready to be used directly by the body. This active form is especially relevant for people with certain genetic variations that make it difficult to convert other synthetic forms. NaturesPlus uses methylcobalamin in its tablets, ensuring optimal bioavailability and utilization.

Key benefits of vitamin B12 supported by the EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has approved several health claims for vitamin B12. Among them:

• Energy and vitality: Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy metabolism and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.
• Nervous system: It contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system and normal psychological function.
• Immune system: It contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system.
• Red blood cell formation: Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells.

Who can benefit from B12 supplementation?

Vitamin B12 is mainly found in animal products. Therefore, people who follow vegetarian or vegan diets are at a higher risk of deficiency. Also, older adults, people with digestive disorders or who have undergone gastric surgery may have reduced absorption. In these cases, a high-potency B12 supplement like NaturesPlus can help cover daily needs.

Sustained release format: how does it work?

Each tablet contains 2000 mcg of methylcobalamin in a sustained-release system. This means that the vitamin is gradually released over several hours, providing a constant supply to the body. This technology is especially useful for maintaining stable B12 levels in the blood and optimizing absorption, avoiding peaks and drops.

Dosage and method of use

It is recommended to take one tablet daily, preferably with a meal. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. The tablets are small and easy to swallow. This product is suitable for vegetarians, is gluten-free and free of common allergens.
