Who Should Consider a B12 Supplement?
Whilst many people obtain sufficient B12 from animal-based foods like meat, fish, eggs and dairy, some groups may benefit from supplementation. Vegetarians and vegans often struggle to meet their B12 requirements through diet alone, as plant foods lack this vitamin naturally. Older adults may experience reduced stomach acid, impairing B12 absorption from food. Additionally, individuals with conditions such as Crohn's disease, coeliac disease, or those who have undergone gastrointestinal surgery may have increased needs.
If you belong to one of these groups, or if you experience persistent fatigue, low energy, or mood changes, discuss your B12 status with a health care professional. A blood test can determine whether supplementation is appropriate for you.
How Does the Rapi-Melt Form Work?
Blackmores B12 Rapi-Melt delivers vitamin B12 in a fast-dissolving tablet designed for sublingual uses – simply place it under the tongue or allow it to melt in the mouth. This innovative format enables absorption directly through the sublingual mucosa, bypassing the digestive tract. For those with digestive sensitivities or difficulty swallowing pills, the Rapi-Melt provides a gentle and easy alternative.
Each melt delivers 1000mcg of vitamin B12 with a pleasant cherry flavour. The tablets dissolve quickly, making them ideal for on-the-go uses with no water required. Take one melt per day, or as directed by your health care professional.
How to Uses Blackmores B12 Rapi-Melt
For best results, place one melt under your tongue or against your cheek and allow it to dissolve completely. Do not chew or swallow whole. Uses once daily, preferably at the same time each day. If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medications, or have a medical condition, consult your health care professional before uses.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in uses. This product is intended for adults and children over 12 years of age, unless otherwise directed by a doctor.
Frequently Asked Questions About Vitamin B12
Can I take B12 on an empty stomach?
Yes, vitamin B12 is water-soluble and can be taken on an empty stomach. In fact, sublingual forms like Rapi-Melt may be absorbed more effectively when taken without food.
Is it safe to take 1000mcg of B12 each day?
Vitamin B12 is generally safe at high doses, as excess amounts are excreted in urine. However, it is wise to follow the recommended dosage and consult a health care professional if you have any concerns.
What Is Vitamin B12 and Why Do You Need It?
Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is an essential nutrient that contributes to many bodily functions. It contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, helps to reduce tiredness and fatigue, supports the normal function of the nervous system, aids in the formation of red blood cells, and supports normal homocysteine metabolism. Since your body cannot produce B12, it must be obtained through diet or supplementation.
