Description

Vitamin B-12 (cyanocobalamin) is a water-soluble vitamin required for the maintenance of a healthy nervous system and for energy production from fats and proteins.

Vitamin B-12 is also essential for DNA synthesis during cell division and thus is particularly important for rapidly multiplying cells, such as blood cells. In addition, adequate intake of vitamin B-12, along with folic acid and vitamin B-6, is critical for the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, thus supporting a healthy cardiovascular system.

While B-12 is stored in the liver, dietary sources are only from animal sources (meat and dairy products). Therefore, supplementation with B-12 may be especially important for strict vegetarians.
