PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Vitamin B12 is the largest and most structurally complex vitamin. It can be found in animal protein and its main source is the microorganisms of the intestinal system of vegetarian animals.

Reduced intake of vitamin B12 can cause severe and irreversible damage, especially to the brain and nervous system. At levels only slightly lower than normal, a number of symptoms can be observed such as fatigue, lethargy, depression, poor memory, shortness of breath, headaches and pale skin, especially in the elderly (over 60 years old) who produce less gastric acid in the stomach as they grow older, thus increasing the likelihood of B12 deficiency.
