Vitamin B12, Vitamin B-12, Mason Natural, Fast Dissolving, 1000 mcg, 200 Tablets

Vitamin B-12, Mason Naturals is part of the B complex vitamin family. Like other B vitamins, it is involved in energy metabolism and other biochemical processes. Vitamin B12 is stored in the liver for several years and is found exclusively in animal products. Most B vitamins are easily absorbed, but vitamin B12 requires special compounds. Vitamin B12 is a necessary cofactor for the production of DNA, the genetic material that acts as the blueprint for all life. This process requires folate and vitamin B6, and shortages of either nutrient can cause problems.

Like its partners folate and vitamin B6, vitamin B12 is needed in the production of several neurotransmitters. In particular, many researchers believe that low levels of vitamin B12 may lead to impaired production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter associated with mood control. Serotonin is a target for drugs that treat depression. When vitamin B12 levels in the body become very low, damage to the nervous system can occur. The insulation around the nerve fibers begins to break down, making it difficult for signals to reach the periphery. This begins with tingling in the extremities.
