cobalamin, VITAMIN B12 TABLETS
pack size:60 pcs Dosage form:tablets
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) supports the normal function of cell division, the nervous system, brain functions, energy metabolism and the immune system. Anyone who often feels tired and exhausted can effectively support the organism with an extra portion of vitamin B12.
The special thing about MEDICOM Vitamin B12 is the high dosage. One tablet contains 30 µg of vitamin B12 and is recommended in the event of an increased need and an unbalanced diet low in vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is mainly found in animal foods. Good sources of vitamin B12 are meat (especially offal), fish, eggs, milk and dairy products. Only small amounts of vitamin B12 are found in plant foods.
Daily requirement of vitamin B12 and how to meet it
An adult needs about three micrograms (μg) of vitamin B12 (cobalamin) per day. He should therefore ingest about this amount with food. With a low-meat diet, with elderly and sick people as well as pregnant women, it is advisable to prevent a lack of vitamin B12 by taking dietary supplements.
WORTH KNOWING
With a mixed diet, only about 50 percent of the vitamin B12 contained is absorbed by the body. In old age in particular, intake can be even lower - so it is not surprising that vitamin B12 deficiency is more common in older people.
