B12Methylcobalamin 5000 mcg Benefits Methylcobalamin is the active form of vitamin B12 for maximum benefit Superior bioavailability to the more common form, cyanocobalamin, which does not convert to enough methylcobalamin to correct some forms of anemia, neurological defects, and aging Lowers homocysteine levels for protective cardiovascular benefits Sublingual tablets allow for fast acting delivery system directly into blood stream Feature SummaryVitamin B12 is the cofactor in enzymatic reactions with diverse physiological functions. It is required for the conversion of methylmalonyl CoA to succinyl CoA, as well as for the conversion of homocysteine to methionine by methionine synthase, which is then converted into S-adenosylmethionine. A B12 deficiency causes impairments in both of these pathways, disrupting neurological function, including poor formation of myelin nerve sheaths, production of toxic levels of homocysteine, and inefficient energy production in all cells.Methylcobala
