Key benefits of vitamin B12 and folate

Vitamin B12 and folate are essential nutrients that work synergistically to maintain various bodily functions. According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, and normal red blood cell formation. It also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Folate, on the other hand, contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism, normal amino acid synthesis, and normal cell division. Both nutrients are fundamental for cardiovascular and neurological health.

Different forms: methylcobalamin and folate

Vitamin B12 can come in various forms, such as cyanocobalamin (synthetic) or methylcobalamin (natural active form). This product uses methylcobalamin, the form directly usable by the body, which can improve its absorption and effectiveness. Folate is provided as folinic acid, an active form that does not require hepatic conversion, unlike synthetic folic acid. The combination of methylcobalamin and folinic acid is especially beneficial for people with certain genetic variants that hinder the conversion of inactive forms.

Who can benefit from this supplement?

This product is intended for adults looking to maintain adequate levels of vitamin B12 and folate, especially those on vegetarian or vegan diets, older adults with possible decreased absorption, individuals with chronic stress or fatigue, and those wishing to support their energy metabolism and nervous system. It may also be useful for people with elevated homocysteine levels, always under professional supervision. However, food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced diet.

How to use the drops: dosage and absorption

The liquid presentation allows for easy titration: each drop provides 40 mcg of B12 and 400 mcg of folate. The recommended dose is one drop daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional. It can be taken directly or mixed with water or juice. Its liquid form promotes rapid absorption, especially if kept under the tongue for a few seconds before swallowing.
