About this ingredient
Vitamin B-12, also known as Cobalamin, is an essential water-soluble B vitamin that plays an important role in red blood cell formation, normal nervous system function, DNA synthesis, and cellular metabolism. It also helps the body process certain nutrients and supports normal neurological and metabolic functions.
Vitamin B-12 is naturally found primarily in animal-derived foods such as meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and dairy products. It can also be obtained from fortified foods and dietary supplements. Common supplemental forms include cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin, and hydroxocobalamin.
