MORE ABOUT VITAMIN B12
Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that you must obtain through diet or supplements. It’s responsible for many bodily functions and may benefit your health in various ways, such as by preventing major birth defects, supporting bone health, improving mood and maintaining healthy skin and hair. Getting enough vitamin B12 through your diet is crucial. However, if you struggle to obtain enough or have a condition that affects absorption, supplements are a simple way to increase your B12 intake.
Vitamin B12 has many roles in your body:
• Supports the normal function of your nerve cells
• Prerequisite for red blood cell formation
• Plays a critical role in DNA synthesis.
ENERGY BOOST
Vitamin B12 supplements have long been touted as the go-to product for a surge of energy. If you’re significantly deficient in vitamin B12, taking a supplement or increasing your intake will likely improve your energy level.
BRAIN & COGNITIVE FUNCTION
Aides in support of neurons and cognitive function. May improve memory in those who are deficient.
RED BLOOD CELL SUPPORT & ANEMIA PREVENTION
Low vitamin B12 levels cause a reduction in red blood cell formation and prevent them from developing properly. Healthy red blood cells are small and round, whereas they become larger and typically oval in cases of vitamin B12 deficiency. Due to this larger and irregular shape, the red blood cells are unable to move from the bone marrow into the bloodstream at an appropriate rate, causing megaloblastic anemia. When you’re anemic, your body doesn’t have enough red blood cells to transport oxygen to your vital organs. This can cause symptoms like fatigue and weakness.
REDUCES HOMOCYSTINE LEVELS
High blood levels of the common amino acid homocysteine have been linked to an increased risk of heart disease. If you’re significantly deficient in vitamin B12, your homocysteine levels become elevated which can cause a variety of problem. Studies have shown that vitamin B12 helps decrease homocysteine levels, which may reduce your risk of sudden heart failure.
HAIR, SKIN & NAILS
Low vitamin B12 levels can cause various dermatologic symptoms, including hyper-pigmentation, nail discoloration, hair changes, vitiligo (the loss of skin color in patches) and angular stomatitis (inflamed and cracked mouth corners)
