Vitamin B12 1000mcg Timed Release Tablets, 60 Tablets

Key Benefits of Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 contributes to several important functions in the body. According to EFSA, vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal red blood cell formation, and normal homocysteine metabolism. It also has a role in the process of cell division and normal psychological function. This makes it a vital nutrient for maintaining energy levels, mental clarity, and overall vitality.

Our timed-release tablets provide 1,000 mcg of cyanocobalamin, a well-absorbed form of vitamin B12. The slow release helps maintain steady levels throughout the day, supporting these key bodily functions consistently.

This product is a food supplement and should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, , or prevent any disease.

Who Should Consider a Vitamin B12 Supplement?

While anyone can benefit from ensuring adequate B12 intake, certain groups are more at risk of low levels:

• Vegetarians and vegans: As B12 is predominantly found in animal products, those following plant-based diets may not get enough from food alone. This supplement is free from animal-derived ingredients, making it a suitable choice.
• Older adults: With age, the stomach produces less acid, which can reduce B12 absorption from food. Supplementing with a pure form helps maintain healthy levels.
• Individuals with digestive issues: Conditions such as Crohn's disease, coeliac disease, or atrophic gastritis can impair absorption. A timed-release formula offers consistent support.
• Those needing an energy boost: If you often feel fatigued, B12 may help your body efficiently convert nutrients into energy.

How to Choose the Best B12 Supplement

Not all B12 supplements are created equal. Here are key factors to consider:

• Form of B12: This supplement contains cyanocobalamin, a stable and well-researched form that the body converts into active coenzymes. It is the most cost-effective and widely used form in oral supplements.
• Dosage: At 1,000 mcg per tablet, this product provides a high-dose suitable for correcting deficiencies or ensuring adequate intake, especially for those with absorption concerns.
• Delivery method: Timed-release tablets release B12 gradually over several hours, mimicking natural absorption and reducing the spike-and-crash associated with immediate-release formulae.
• Purity and additives: This formula is free from gluten, lactose, sugar, and artificial colours or flavours. It is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
• Value: With 60 tablets per bottle (a two-month supply at one tablet daily), this product provides convenient, long-lasting support.

What Is Vitamin B12 and Why Do You Need It?

Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is an essential water-soluble vitamin that your body cannot produce on its own. It must be obtained through diet or supplementation. Natural sources include meat, fish, eggs, and dairy, but many people struggle to get enough from food alone. A deficiency can lead to fatigue, weakness, and cognitive difficulties, making supplementation a practicable solution for maintaining optimal health.

Each tablet in this formula provides 1,000 mcg of vitamin B12, a potent dose designed to meet and exceed daily requirements. The timed-release delivery ensures a steady supply of B12 to your system, maximising absorption and efficacy.

Recommended Dosage and How to Take B12

For adults, the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for vitamin B12 is 2.4 mcg per day, but therapeutic doses for supplementation often range from 500 to 5,000 mcg. This product provides 1,000 mcg per tablet, a dose that is safe for daily uses and well within established tolerable upper intake levels.

Take one tablet daily with a meal and a full glass of water. The timed-release formulation works best when swallowed whole—do not crush or chew the tablet. Consistency is key for maintaining steady B12 levels.

If you have a known deficiency or medical condition, consult your health care provider before starting any new supplement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I take more than one tablet per day? While B12 is water-soluble and excess is generally excreted, it is recommended to follow the serving size of one tablet daily unless otherwise directed by a health care professional.

Is this supplement safe for long-term uses? Yes, vitamin B12 is safe for long-term supplementation at recommended doses. There are no known adverse effects from prolonged uses.

Does timed-release mean it works better than regular tablets? Timed-release formulations can provide a more even distribution of B12, which may benefit individuals with absorption issues or those who prefer a sustained release over a single dose.
