Source Naturals Dibencozide – Suplemento de vitamina B12 (Adenosilcobalamina), 30 comprimidos sublinguales

Dibencozide by Source Naturals is a coenzymatic form of vitamin B12, known as adenosylcobalamin, designed to support energy production at the mitochondrial level. This fast-absorbing sublingual supplement is ideal for athletes and people with an active lifestyle who seek to optimize their performance and naturally combat fatigue.

What is adenosylcobalamin and why is it important?

Adenosylcobalamin is one of the two active coenzymatic forms of vitamin B12. Unlike cyanocobalamin (the most common synthetic form), adenosylcobalamin is ready to be used by the body without the need for conversion. It acts directly in the mitochondria, where it participates in the metabolism of branched-chain fatty acids and amino acids, essential for energy production during prolonged exercise.

Key benefits of vitamin B12 endorsed by the EFSA

Vitamin B12 contributes to several essential physiological processes, according to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA):

• Normal energy-yielding metabolism: Helps convert food into usable energy by cells.
• Reduction of tiredness and fatigue: Promotes daily vitality and endurance during exercise.
• Normal red blood cell formation: Contributes to oxygen transport to tissues, improving physical performance.
• Normal function of the immune system: Supports the body's defenses.
• Normal psychological function: Helps maintain concentration and mental balance.

These benefits are scientifically backed and make vitamin B12 an essential nutrient for general health.

Why choose adenosylcobalamin over other forms of B12?

There are several forms of vitamin B12 on the market. Cyanocobalamin is the cheapest but requires hepatic conversion to active forms. Methylcobalamin is another active form, ideal for neurological health. Adenosylcobalamin, however, is the preferred form for mitochondrial energy support. Being coenzymated, it does not need transformation, which makes it especially effective for athletes or people with high energy needs. In addition, in this product it is presented in sublingual tablets, which are absorbed directly into the bloodstream, avoiding possible problems of digestive absorption.

Who can benefit from this supplement?

This supplement is suitable for:

• Athletes and active people: To improve energy production during intense training or competitions.
• Vegans and vegetarians: Vitamin B12 is found mainly in animal products, so supplements are essential to avoid deficiencies.
• Older people: B12 absorption decreases with age, so a sublingual supplement can be beneficial.
• People with chronic fatigue or lack of energy: As support to combat daily tiredness.

Note: Vitamin B12 is water-soluble and excess is eliminated in the urine, so it is safe even in high doses, although it is always recommended to follow the instructions.

How to use and recommendations

The recommended dose is 1 sublingual tablet per day, preferably between meals or 30 minutes before training. Place the tablet under the tongue and let it dissolve completely before swallowing. This allows direct absorption through the oral mucosa. It is not recommended to exceed the indicated daily dose.
