Question 1

Hi. :) Are the capsules as effective as the sublingual b12 ? Thank you.

Accepted Answer

These b12 capsules work just fine and brought my b12 levels up into the normal range (verified by blood tests).
I've tried sublingual b12 as well as other supplements and medications and none have been effective. It's my opinion that substances do not get absorbed under the tongue at nearly the rate that it is believed to be. I think the whole thing is a myth. Stick with regular pills and capsules that you swallow.

Question 2

Can anyone tell me the "other" ingredients listed,.. such as, silica, magnesium sterate, natural flavors,. etc., etc...?

Accepted Answer

The ingredients are ...  "vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin). Other ingredients listed  ...hypo-allergenic plant fiber (cellulose), vegetarian capsule (cellulose,water).It also states on the label ... "This encapsulated product contains no hidden coatings, excipients, binders, fillers, shellacs, artificial colors or fragarance. Contains no dairy, wheat, yeast, gluten, corn, sugar, starch, soy, preservetives or hydrogenated oil."Hope this helps!

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Question 4

Is this b12 yeast free?

Accepted Answer

Pure Encapsulations provides full transparency in all their labeling. Their supplement labels have always listed all ingredients, including the composition of the raw material.  No yeast is used in the manufacturing process. Yeast is a ubiquitous organism, found in food, on everyday objects and even in the air we breathe. For this reason, Pure cannot claim that their products are free from yeast, but any amount must be extremely low for sale. All Pure Encapsulations products are routinely tested for yeast and other microbes as part of their microbial testing panel.
