| What does Folic Acid do? |
Vitamin B-12 is involved in the functioning of the nervous system, in proper blood oxygenation and therefore energy support. B12 is also required for proper nerve cell functioning, DNA replication, production of SAMe. B12 works in conjunction with other B vitamins, specifically Folic Acid and B6.
This sublingual or "under-the-tongue" supplement (absorbed best bucally, or, in the side pocket of the mouth/cheek area) is a slow-dissolving formula (meant to be kept in the mouth until dissolved) derived from methylcobalamin, superior in bioavailability to cyanocobalamin. It has been complexed with beta-cyclodextrin to increase further oral bioavailability and maximum absorption. General tiredness is an accepted state of being in today's society.

Why is sublingual/slow-dissolving better?
Like our Folixor products, slow-dissolving sublingual and/or buccal formulations allow for the best absorption pattern possible as the nutrient is gradually absorbed into the bloodstream, allowing the body the most efficient processing possible, for the nutrient remains in the bloodstream for a longer period of time. Instant absorption or quick absorption results in an absorption "spike" which is a less efficient method of delivery (the body can not absorb well in one, instant, setting). |
Who should consider this formula?
Those who may be B12 deficient are the elderly. Individuals who are fatigued or would like extra energy. Those lacking "intrinsic factor" or who have pernicious anemia. B12, B6 and Folic acid play a role in controlling homocysteine levels and are good for those interested in heart health. |
