Vitamin B12 – quality is key
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) was only discovered in 1948. It is a very complex, large molecule and is essential for the development of all the body’s cells. Nerve cells in particular suffer from a deficiency. The best-selling form of B12 is synthetic cyanocobalamin. Whilst this is effective, it is not optimal, as it must first be converted for the body to absorb it. In the process, the potentially harmful cyanide compound (better known as hydrocyanic acid) is released. Methylcobalamin is the form required by the body and is absorbed much more effectively without the need for conversion. There is another form of vitamin B12 that is even slightly better than methylcobalamin, which is already very good: adenosylcobalamin! Folic acid has been added to give you even more energy.
Not all folic acid is the same.
Folic acid – or, more precisely, folate – is present in its best form as methyl tetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF). This is the form the body needs. If you take in simple folic acid, the body must first convert it into 5-MTHF. Around 50 per cent of people are unable to do this due to a metabolic disorder; for them, taking simple, cheap folic acid would be completely pointless. And consequently, such supplements would offer no protective benefit, e.g. against spina bifida in the unborn child. With 5-MTHF, you’re playing it safe; in other words, even without testing to see whether you have this metabolic disorder, you’re guaranteed to be taking the correct form .
