Product Description
| Overview |
Product Description Although the human body does store vitamin B12, it is the most common nutritional deficiency in the developing world and possibly in the U.S. (reports the August 2005 issue of the Harvard Health Letter) Essential to protect the body against anemia and support a healthy central nervous system*, vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin involved in the metabolism of every cell of the body. Helping to support the body’s own production of energy through its role in the metabolism of food, vitamin B12 helps maintain healthy nerve cells and red blood cells and is also needed to make DNA, the genetic material in all cells.

Customer Questions & Answers
-
Question: Which form of B12 is it? The methylcobalamin or the cyanocobalamin form - which is less expensive to make but not as effective?
Answer: On the front of the bottle and on the front of the box, is says in both places that it is Vegan Methylcobalmin. Also, at the top of this page under the "About this item" the very first bullet point states, "...b12 as methylcobalmin..." So, this is the methylcobalmin form, which is said to be the best, the other type, Cyanocobalamin, is synthetic. -
Question: Vegan?
Answer: Yes, 100% vegan. It is made from bacteria formed from saccharomyces cerevisae. This is the best known vegetarian source of Vitamin B-12. -
Question: Is this the methylcobalamin form?
Answer: Swanson lied. No fruits/vegetables contain B-12 in any human-usable form (Except for VERY small amounts in certain types of tempeh & nori). Not even the nutritional yeast they claim sources it on the nutrition label (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The only guaranteed way to get it is from meat, fish, milk, or eggs (non-vegan)... Created in a lab directly (usually Cyanocobalamin which leaves cyanide accumulation in the body... Though it CAN be further altered with other chemicals to turn into Methylcobalamin, though then that's still not food-sourced)... Or certain bacteria which can produce Methylcobalamin as a by-product of being fed certain compounds in a controlled environment. Nutritional yeast doesn't naturally contain B-12; it's always either not present, or fortified manually, & that's USUALLY the synthetic Cyanocobalamin version, unless the company making that yeast specifies that they added Methylcobalamin instead from some other source. So either this company/seller is using pre-packaged fortified nutritional yeast from another company & mistakenly thinking the B-12 came with it naturally, thus they don't know much about their own resources... Or, they make their own nutritional yeast & are lying about the B-12's source, nature, compound, or maybe even about it being there at all. We need real answers. -
Question: Why packaged in such a large bottle, with only about 25% filled with the B-12? Seems very wasteful.
Answer: Yes I agree. I have a subscription for this and it is super wasteful. Would gladly pay more to get a full bottle. -
Question: How many capsules do you take daily?
Answer: I try to take one capsule a day. (Although, sometimes I do forget. :-) ) -
Question: Is 1000mcg a little bit too much? I read that adults only need 2.4mcg per day.
Answer: It just depends, I take 10,000 mcg a day and my body responds really well. I've known others to take more. -
Question: why can't I buy a single bottle?
Answer: I always buy a single bottle. I didn't know they even came in multiples . But I am on autoship. -
Question: Does anyone know if the formula/ingredients have changed in the last year?
Answer: There have no formula changes to Vitamin Code Raw B-12 since July 2014, when the product became Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher, and Certified Vegan. I hope this clarifies. In Health, Erin M. Garden of Lif -
Question: Will this boost my energy levels?
Answer: Most likely it will. Not in a jittery coffee way. There are a number of ingredients that will help will energy and overall feeling better.
