What type of B12 is in this product?

The bottle says "Raw food-created nutrients", but doesn't list specific sources. Nothing is synthetic though & it has folate instead of folic acid, which I love as a midwife.

That's a good question and also one that makes this product's claims hard to believe. I think commercially B12 only comes from a process of industrial bacterial biosynthesis which I don't think can be 100% natural. Wonder if this still means this product is vegan or natural as they claim.This is exactly the point of my review I wrote for this supplement a few weeks ago.

I don't know the type. I do know that it is terribly difficult to find products these days that don't have some problem with them, even this product that is supposed to be natural. It's discouraging but all we can do keep trying and searching for the best we can find.

What is Adenosylcobalamin, that this does not say is in this? I also do not see on the label "Coenzyme B12"??

Since I did not design the label, (I was a buyer) I do not know. However, The Supplement Facts section on the bottle lists the following: Vitamin B12...1,000 mcg, stevia....0.5 mg. Other ingredients: purified water, natural glycerin, sodium benzoate, citric acid. Manufactured in Canada

For what it's worth, on the Dr. Axe web page addressing vitamin B12 deficiency, he provides a link recommending this brand as a supplement after first having said, "When buying a vitamin B12 supplement you will want to look for it in the form of methylcobalamin or hydroxycobalamin rather than cyanocobalamin because these forms or more natural and better absorbed by the body." Given his knowledge of the ideal forms for assimilation, I'd like to think he would suggest products that fit the criteria.

at is a question you need to ask the product manager, or the manufacturer. As a buyer - I don't know. And it doesn't bother me - those pills are great.My B12 is now way over the top normal value, and I only used a small amount of the pills.

vitamin B12 is an organic compound that contains cobalt. You should Google the term to find out more details. A simple blood test ordered by your doctor can tell you if you are deficient and need to take additional B12. Vegans frequently do not receive enough B12 in their diets and must add B12.

Michelle Holley gets A+ for her answer...100% correct! Methylcobalamin B12and is deemed to be the preferred kind. The other two forms are Cyanocobalamin (Yep, Cyanide is used in the processing and is considered the WORST form) and Hydroxocobalamin. Please Google my suggestionsfor yourself, and draw your own conclusions. Happy Valentines Day!

Nothing but Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin, which is a certain type of B12 , more easily assimilated into the body, and not synthetic). Hope that helps.

Get this one instead. Superior Source No Shot B12/B-6/folic Acid, 10,000 mcg/1200 mcg, 60 caps.This contains 10MG of B12 plus the folic acid 1.2mg. I can care less about this last but the B12 it is essential to have it. The company Source naturals are good quality products but the one you are thinking of buying is too low in B12. The superior source has the bottle with 60 units and 10MG each capsule.Just take one capsule with breakfast, you'll feel the difference.

Since the label does say there is substantial Vit B-12 in this product it folows it MUST be fortified with B12. Nutritional yeast is often used by vegans & vegetarians who sometimes need B12 supplementation their diets with vitamin B12. The yeast colonies cannot produce B12, which is only naturally produced by bacteria. Some brands of nutritional yeast, including this one are fortified with vitamin B12. When fortified, the vitamin B12 is produced separately (commonly cyanocobalamin) and then added to the yeast.
