Nature Made Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B12) 1000 mcg - 300 Tablets
Vitamin
B-12
(Vitamin B12), or cobalamin, is involved in many body processes
and works very closely with another B vitamin, folic acid. They both
work to synthesize DNA in our body and manufacture red blood cells.
Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B12) is also necessary for the proper functioning of
our nervous system. Therefore, if a Vitamin B-12 deficiency occurs, nerve
function can become impaired and characterized by tingling sensations and
numbness. A Vitamin B-12 deficiency can also cause impaired mental
function.
A deficiency in Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B12) is thought to be quite common
among the elderly, and it is a major cause of depression among this age
group. In addition, as we age, we have a lower amount of stomach acid
secreted that is necessary for Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B12) absorption.
Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B12) deficiency is again likely among the elderly
population, since we loose the ability to absorb nutrients as we age.
Therefore, it is strongly recommended that people over the age of 50
consume a B12 supplement.
A deficiency in Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B-12) may also be mistaken for
dementia-like symptoms or depression, and patients may end up being
mistreated. Folic acid may also mask the symptoms of a B12 deficiency, so
it is recommended that Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B12) and folic acid are taken
together.
In addition, Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B12) may also play a significant role
in heart health. It does so by helping to keep homocysteine levels down in
the blood. Homocysteine is a substance that formed when Vitamin B-12
(Vitamin B-12) and folic acid levels are low, and research has indicated
it may be a possible risk factor for heart health.
Vitamin B-12 (Vitamin B12) is recommended as part of a daily regimen for
Women's Health, Stress, Heart Health, Mood/Emotional Well-Being, Energy,
Fitness.
