But what is the particularity of Vitamin B12 Yamamoto® Research?
Yamamoto®'s mission is to create supplements that are of maximum scientific effectiveness, and also in this case we wanted to offer a "plus". It is called "methylcobalamin", and it is a methylated and decidedly more absorbable form of cobalamin (vitamin B12), with the result that taking even a smaller dosage will obtain a greater bioavailability, arriving "at destination" where it is needed. When adequate levels of this cobalamin or vitamin B12 are maintained, there will be maximum expression of this, supporting the nervous, immune and circulatory systems. Because of its direct brain-transfer effect, this supplement can help increase mental functions such as memory and attention, resulting in an improvement in overall well-being. This quickly explains why these supplements are called "tonics". Methylcobalamin has also been found to indirectly help regulate sleep cycles and circadian rhythms in the body. Another very curious and important benefit that comes from an adequate intake of this methylcobalamin compound is that it can help protect the body from harmful toxins. The presence of choline bitartrate and inositol will further support liver function, in the important detoxification processes (from methylation) that the B complex assists and in the metabolism of fats and cholesterol. Vitamin B12 is an essential vitamin that our body is unable to produce and which must be introduced from the diet, and is a water-soluble vitamin that is part of the B group vitamin complex.
Its complex structure is characterized, in the centre, by the presence of a cobalt atom, to which it owes the name "cobalamin". We commonly find it in very small quantities in a variety of foods of animal origin such as fish, shellfish, meat (especially "red" ones) and in dairy products. Vitamin B12 physiologically plays very important roles for the correct functioning of our body's physiology, helping to keep nerve cells and red blood cells healthy and efficient, and is necessary to synthesize DNA, our genetic material present in all cells.
Vitamin B12 is normally bound to food proteins and the acidic environment present in the stomach allows it to be separated during the digestion process. The action of gastric juices and in particular the secretion of intrinsic factor by the cells of the gastric wall is essential for the subsequent absorption of vitamin B12 in the intestine. Specifically, the "most famous" of the vitamins of the B complex, serves for the correct physiology of the structure and functionality of red blood cells, intervening in the process of their synthesis by the bone marrow, supporting the synthesis of hemoglobin and DNA being a fundamental cofactor of methionine synthase, an enzyme involved in the synthesis of purines and pyramids, the nitrogenous bases that make up nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). Vitamin B12 is required for central nervous system metabolism. On an aesthetic level, Vitamin B12 has a positive effect on the health of the skin, hair and nails. Vitamin B12 is absorbed into the body through the stomach, combines with a protein substance called intrinsic factor, which is produced in the stomach and absorbed from the food you eat. Vitamin B12 deficiency is very common in older people, affecting one in 10 people over the age of 75. It is less frequent in young people, although those who follow a vegan diet are more likely to have this deficiency, as vitamin B12 is found mainly in foods of animal origin.
How to use: take 1 tablet a day with water.
Warnings: Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. The supplements are not intended as a substitute for a varied diet. A varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle are important. Keep out of the reach of children under three years of age. Keep in a cold and dry place. Avoid exposure to heat sources and sunlight.
