$ 49.95

Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B-12) is a member of the B-Complex family of water-soluble vitamins. Of the various forms of Vitamin B-12 available, methylcobalamin is more bioactive than cyanocobalamin, which requires conversion by the liver to the active coenzyme form.  

Methylcobalamin has numerous functions in the body including stimulating red blood cell production and aiding in the development of healthy myelin which benefits the nervous system. Methylcobalamin is also essential for DNA synthesis and aids in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, an essential amino acid. 

Vitamin B-6 is a water soluble vitamin critical for cognition and immune function. Pyridoxal 5’-phosphate is the active form of pyridoxine and the form found in Nutrascriptives Methylcobalamin B-12 Liquid. It is thought to provide additional maintenance of homocysteine levels and help the body metabolize carbohydrates, protein, and fat.  

Additionally, folic acid is included because Vitamin B12 and folate are synergistic nutrients that play an integral role in nervous system function, macronutrient metabolism, and gastrointestinal function.*
