1. Who is Active B12 with L-5-MTHF intended for?

Active B12 with L-5MTHF Lozenges provide 800 micrograms of pure L-methylfolate along with the two primary active forms of B12, all in an easy-to-take lozenge. This product is intended for any adult who wants to naturally support MTHFR mutations, support healthy mental clarity, focus, attention, as well as positive mood and energy.*

Vitamin B12 is essential for the formation of healthy red blood cells, energy production, nervous system support, cognitive function, and homocysteine regulation. Folate is involved in homocysteine metabolism and efficiently supports methylation, DNA biosynthesis, and nervous system function.*

While folate and B12 are now commonly used to fortify cereals and grains, the synthetic forms of these important B vitamins used for fortification are often not well absorbed, nor added in amounts sufficient to meet the nutritional requirements of all individuals. Natural food sources of folate include liver, dark green leafy vegetables, avocado, peas, and beans. Vitamin B12 is naturally present in seafood, meat, shellfish, liver, eggs, and dairy products. It may be harder for vegetarians and vegans to meet their daily needs for vitamin B12 from food sources without relying on supplements or fortified foods.*

As each individual may have different needs for vitamin B12 and folate, the potent doses of these vitamins contained in Active B12 with L-5MTHF may not be ideal for everyone. Working with a qualified healthcare professional is the best way to determine the appropriate dose for your individual needs.*

9. What is the difference between the types of B12?

There are four types of B12: adenosylcobalamin, hydroxocobalamin, methylcobalamin, and cyanocobalamin.

• Adenosylcobalamin: A primary form of B12 in the body that is mostly concentrated in cellular tissues.


• Hydroxocobalamin: Supports natural detoxification pathways and easily converts into methylcobalamin, the most active form.


• Methylcobalamin: A primary form of B12 in the body that is mostly concentrated in blood plasma.


• Cyanocobalamin: None of our products contain this form. This is the inactive form that is paired with a cyanide molecule and is the most difficult to absorb and use in the body.

Your healthcare provider will be the best person to determine which form(s) are optimal for your health needs.

10. Does Active B12 with L-5-MTHF absorb better if chewed or dissolved sublingually?

This product is meant to be taken orally and swallowed. Absorption rates will vary from person to person and due to a number of other factors, including enzyme activity, diet, age, size, etc.*
