Vitamin B12 500 µg plus folic acid

These dietary supplements are not a substitute for a balanced and varied diet and a healthy lifestyle. This product is suitable for the targeted intake of vitamin B12 and folic acid. Both vitamins contribute to normal homocysteine ​​metabolism and are water-soluble vitamins that the body cannot synthesize itself and therefore must be obtained through food.

Sources and demand coverage

Vitamin B12 is found primarily in animal products such as meat, eggs, and cheese. Vegetarians and vegans should therefore consider alternative sources to meet their vitamin B12 needs. Folic acid is found in large quantities in fresh vegetables, legumes, and whole grains, but these are often consumed in insufficient amounts.

Function and significance in the body

Adequate intake of these vitamins is recommended because they are involved in many metabolic processes. Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal function of the nervous system. Folic acid supports the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy.
