Ultra Strength Methyl B-12

Good product. Helps my energy level

Got this brand after doing much research on Vitamin B-12. Doesn't have a lot of the additives that some supplements have and aren't gel caps but chewable. Taste is good.

When a person is thinking about transitioning to a vegan diet (or has already adapted that lifestyle) it is important that they understand that they are able to get all of the nutrients, vitamins and minerals that they need to live from products other than meat, with the one exception of vitamin b12. That is just not readily available for humans through a vegan diet, unless there is supplementation, which is really important because b12 has a really important role in brain functioning, among other things. If you want more information on this topic, a quick google search will show you some very informative websites. I started taking this chewable vitamin a few months ago and I love it. I get the tropical 2500 mcg flavor, and it definitely tastes fruity and tropical, but not overwhelming, and nothing like a vitamin. In fact, my young nephew loves these so much, he tries to talk me into giving him two every time he is at my house. If the flavor isn't for you, there are a few other options; although they vary in the amount of b12 they contain. When I first started a vegan diet I knew nothing of b12, and in the years since I found out more about different b vitamins and how they work in the human body, I have found my life improved by taking these daily. My sincerest thanks Jarrow Formulas!

Tasty but started to hurt my stomach

My energy was low and moods swingy from a B-vitamin dip my doctor spotted, so I started this B-12 folate for better absorption. One a day dissolves quick under the tongue. After two weeks, I felt calmer emotionally and less tired by afternoon, getting through work without crashes. No stomach trouble, even on empty mornings. Been on it a month now, and it's a simple fix that's made days smoother. Great for active B support without pills. Reordering soon.

This is the best b12 I’ve tried so far. I cut them in half!

As a person with b12 deficiency and a genetic predisposition to poor methylation, Jarrow formulas has been my go to for the past decade. I’ve tried other brands but nothing compares to the consistency and quality of these supplements! I usually go with the cherry flavor but I saw this one and thought I’d try it out. I like the flavor, and the price, doesn’t really matter if you get 1000mcg, 2500 mcg, or 5000 mcg, your body will not absorb anything close to that so just pick the flavor you like. I also take the b-right complex at the same time (on empty stomach, to ensure absorption of both). If you need a b12 supplement this is the best folks, the longer you can keep the lozenge under your tongue the better absorption (don’t swallow these! ) and remember that folate is necessary to absorb b12 so take a quality b complex with it! Also always make sure you buy methyl b12, it takes stress off your liver if you have genetic problems, cyano b12 is garbage.

You really never know what you’re getting in any vitamin, really. But I’ve been using this brand now for at least 5 years and I know these work bc I get my B12 checked every so many months and it’s sometimes been higher than it should and I have to cut back and take one of these every other day. So they work! I like that they’re chewable and I love the tropical flavored ones.
