New Roots - Vitamin B12 Methylcobalamin 500 mcg | 90 Capsules

Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is a critical member of the B-vitamin complex, vital for numerous bodily functions. New Roots Herbal uses the methylcobalamin form, the coenzyme form of B12, which is the only type that directly participates in homocysteine metabolism. Through this process, methylcobalamin helps convert homocysteine to methionine, boosting the production of S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), the body’s most important methyl donor. This process plays a role in protecting against neurotoxicity, maintaining healthy nerve cells, and supporting red blood cell formation.

B12 is necessary for DNA synthesis, and deficiencies can lead to anemia, nerve damage, and neurological issues. It plays a crucial role in maintaining myelin, the fatty sheath around nerves, and supports rapid cell division, especially in bone marrow, which is responsible for red blood cell production.
