Vitamin B12 – quality matters
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) was only discovered in 1948. It is a very complex, large molecule and is required for the development of all cells in the body. Nerve cells in particular suffer from a deficiency. The best-selling B12 is the synthetic cyanocobalamin. Although it is effective, it is not optimal, as it must first be converted for absorption. In the process the not entirely insignificant cyano compound (better known as hydrocyanic acid) is released. Methylcobalamin is the form the body needs and is absorbed significantly better without conversion. There is another form of vitamin B12 that is even somewhat better than the already very good methylcobalamin: adenosylcobalamin! Folic acid has been added for an extra boost.
Not all folic acid is the same.
Folic acid, or more precisely folate, is best present in its methyltetrahydrofolate form. This is the form the body needs. If you take plain folic acid, the body must first convert it to 5‑MTHF. About 50% of people cannot do this due to a metabolic disorder; for these people it would be completely pointless to take simple, cheap folic acid. Consequently, such preparations would also have no protective effect, e.g. against spina bifida in the unborn child. With 5‑MTHF you play it safe, i.e. even without testing whether you have this metabolic disorder, you are guaranteed to take the correct form.

High-quality formulations from the Netherlands
The products of podo medi are largely influenced by the naturopathic experience of its co‑founder Wolfgang P. Schallmey. As a naturopath and expert in orthomolecular therapy, he created dietary supplements under his own brand WOSCHA based on many years of experience and a holistic philosophy. In addition to high quality, efficacy and good tolerability, WOSCHA products are characterised by the absence of additives that are added to other preparations to enable cheaper production. WOSCHA products are made from fresh, non‑genetically modified raw materials and are presented in their purest form. In addition, podo medi pays attention to sustainable packaging and dispatch.
