identity: A Dietary Supplement
claim: Vitamin B12 (often referred to as cobalamin) is an essential nutrient. It is critical for nervous system function, assists in the production of red blood cells, and is important in DNA and RNA production (the genetic material).
Vegetarians may be at risk of B12 deficiency because this vitamin is naturally found in foods that come from animals, including fish, meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products. Despite this variety of food sources, microorganisms are the only producers of B12 and its derivatives, and humans depend on them - either directly or indirectly - for this essential vitamin, which cannot by synthesized. Dietary supplements of B12 are produced by natural fermentation, and this vitamin can be produced by healthy soil and gut bacteria. Most forms of life (except for some higher classes of plants) depend on B12 from these sources.
Protocol For Life Balance(TM) Methyl B12 is provided in the biologically active coenzyme form to maximize the body's utilization of this product. B12 coenzymes are cofactors in various important enzymatic reactions. Methylcobalamin is especially important for the maintenance and repair of neuronal tissue in the brain and nerves. The methyl group present in this form of B12 can also aid in methylation, an important mechanism for detoxifying certain substances, such as homocysteine.
warning: Cautions and Interactions

claim: Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that cannot be synthesized by animals or plants, only by micro-organisms. Most of B12's benefits are related to its co-enzyme activity, such as enzymes needed for the production of DNA during cell division. It is also necessary for the methylation of homocysteine, a harmful by-product of protein metabolism. B12 is necessary for the maintenance of a healthy nervous system. Methylcobalamin is better absorbed and retained than other forms of B12.
