Supports psychological functions and energy release
Boost B12 is stimulant free and contains the most bio-available form of B12 (methylcobalamin) which is a naturally active form found within human metabolism. Specially formulated to delivery vitamin B12 directly into the mouth. The tiny droplets absorb quickly, providing fast nutrient uptake. Each dosage (4 sprays) delivers 1200μg (micrograms) of vitamin B12 along with 40μg (micrograms) of chromium
Importance of vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 helps contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal energy metabolism and normal psychological function. It also contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system, red blood cell formation and supports the normal function of the immune system.
Who needs it
B12 is a notoriously difficult nutrient to absorb in the gut. At most only 1% of our dietary intake will be absorbed by the body, and that relies on digestive efficiency and the presence of a chemical called intrinsic factor. Tiredness, stress, ill-health, poor or limited diet will all reduce this absorption further.
As it is predominantly found in animal products, B12 supplements are recommended for those following vegetarian and vegan diets and Pernicious Anaemia sufferers.
Can I take B-complete and Boost B12 together?
Yes, our B-complete and B12 can be taken together, there is a lower dosage of B12 in the B-complete (100μg per 4 sprays) compared to that dosage in the Boost B12 (1200μg per 4 sprays). You may find having 1-2 sprays of our B12 alongside our B-complete may give you the boost required. With B12 being a water-soluble vitamin, anything the body does not need will naturally expel. If you have any underlying medical conditions or are on prescription medications, please consult a GP prior to supplementation.
Why is green tea included in the Boost B12 spray?
The purpose of the green tea in the spray is a natural preservative as well as being an antioxidant.
Why is chromium added to the Boost B12 spray?
Chromium is another nutrient that is difficult to obtain through diet alone, but has shown to be well absorbed through the mucosal membrane. While B12 and chromium do not need to be taken together, Chromium helps balance blood sugar levels and like B12 helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.
