Active forms may be immediately utilized by the organism and do not undergo complicated transformations, as in the case of a synthetic and incredibly popular form of vitamin B12 – cyanocobalamin.

Vitamin B12 – is and organic chemical compound soluble in water, containing central atom in the form of cobalt. It abundantly appears in foods of animal origin, therefore especially vegetarians are prone to deep deficiencies of this valuable element. It takes part in cell divisions, erythrocyte production and fatty acid breakdown.
Blood-forming processes
Vitamin B12 demonstrates high blood-forming activity. It takes part in the production of red cells in bone marrow, therefore its deficiency leads to the development of anemia.
The most dangerous complication related to vitamin B12 deficiency is the so-called malignant anemia, which is characterized by the inability of the organism to absorb this vitamin from the digestive system. Immature cells, called megaloblasts are released to the bloodstream. Malignant anemia is a kind of autoimmune disease, as a result of which the immune system emits antibodies attacking IF factor, essential to absorb vitamin B12 through stomach mucosa.
Vitamin B12 and methylation
Vitamin B12 plays a very important function of a cofactor in methylation processes in the whole organism. It is primarily responsible for proper conversion of homocysteine to methionine. Methylation disorders lead to the increased homocysteine level in the plasma, which results in the increased risk of developing atherosclerosis, stroke, heart attack and other disorders in the cardiovascular system.
Regulation of the nervous system
Vitamin B12 is responsible for the synthesis of nucleotides and choline, which are in the composition of myelin sheath, protecting neurons and ensuring communication. Therefore, one of the symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency from the side of the nervous system which is the most difficult to recognize are balance disorders, limb numbness and the feeling of tingling.
Cobalamin takes part in the synthesis of serotonin – one of the most important neurotransmitters protecting from depression, bad mood and irritation.
Elderly people are the most prone to serotonin deficiency, among whom we observe decreased secretion of stomach juice, essential for the absorption of vitamin B12 and subsequent neurotransmitter synthesis. Starting supplementation in this case results in energy growth, boost of concentration, memory and mental ability.
Vitamin B12 takes part in the processes of transforming proteins, carbohydrates and fats, which conditions proper energy metabolism of the organism. By the same token, it decreases fatigue, adds energy and vital powers.
Proper concentration of vitamin B12 in blood conditions long, steady and efficient sleep – cobalamin supports the production of a very important hormone, melatonin, which by its antagonist activity towards cortisol level allows to fall deeply asleep.
Summing up, Active B12 is an ideal product to supplement vitamin B12 deficiency in the organism. Thanks to its active forms, it is especially recommended to people with methylation problems and vegetarians. Large dose of the product also works well in case of anemia.
