Details
Vitamin B12 is an essential vitamin found in foods such as meat, fish, and dairy. It can also be made in a lab and is often taken with other B vitamins. Vitamin B12 is required for the function and development of many parts of the body, including the brain, nerves, and blood cells. Methyl cobalamin is the active form of vitamin B12. Cyanocobalamin, which must be processed by the body into the active form, is the most common type used in supplements. It is also used for canker sores, cataracts, Alzheimer disease, osteoporosis, fatigue, and many other conditions. Vitamin B12 is a nutrient that helps keep your body's blood and nerve cells healthy and helps make DNA, the genetic material in all your cells. Vitamin B12 also helps prevent megaloblastic anemia, a blood condition that makes people tired and weak.
