B12 is one of the most difficult nutrients for the body to absorb, particularly in people with digestive issues or older adults. As it is predominantly found in animal products, deficiency can also be common in those following a vegan or vegetarian diet. Active B12 5000 provides bioactive forms of vitamin B12 that your body can readily recognise and utilise. B12 is important for cognition and energy levels, therefore deficiency can lead to fatigue and poor memory, as well as neurological symptoms such as tingling hands and feet. B12 is important for contributing towards the prevention of cardiovascular disease, by its ability to convert an amino acid called homocysteine into methionine, which in high levels, can be damaging to the heart.
