Each berry flavored lozenge contains 5000 mcg methylcobalamin, the activated form of vitamin B12. They are designed to deliver B12 through the mucous membranes in order to bypass the need for intrinsic factor, a protein produced in the stomach known to be needed for maximal GI absorption of B12. The body is able to use methylcobalamin more efficiently than cyanocobalamin, the most common form of supplemental vitamin B12. Methylcobalamin is better absorbed and has a higher retention rate in the body's tissues. Supplementation using methylcobalamin eliminates the need for the liver to convert cyanocobalamin to the active form of vitamin B12. Signs and symptoms of B12 deficiency: Fatigue, Depression, Dementia, Pernicious anemia, Red burning tongue, Muscle weakness, Shortness of breath, Dizziness, Numbness (fingers, toes, etc.), Heart palpitations, Bleeding gums and mouth sores, Nausea and Poor appetite.
