Vitamin B12

TriVita Sublingual B-12 contains three essential vitamins, B12, B6 and Folic acid, so what are they and what do they do?

Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) Vitamin B12 is the only vitamin that contains cobalt, a trace mineral. It is essential for the normal functioning of all body cells, especially those of bone marrow, gastrointestinal tract and nervous system. B12 is necessary for the formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin. Without adequate B12 the red blood cells enlarge and do not mature properly, leading to a potentially dangerous condition known as pernicious anaemia. Mild B12 deficiency is common with symptoms including lethargy, forgetfulness, tinnitus and fatigue. Vitamin B12 is found in foods of animal origin and those consuming a vegan diet are at increased risk of deficiency.

Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) Vitamin B6 plays a role as a coenzyme in the breakdown and utilisation of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. It facilitates the release of glycogen for energy from the liver and muscles. It also participates in the utilisation of energy in brain and nervous tissues and is essential for the regulation of the central nervous system. Vitamin B6 is needed to maintain hormone balance- in particular those of the female reproductive system. Possible signs associated with B6 deficiency include nervous tension and irritability, depression, pregnancy-related sickness and cracks in the tongue and lips. Food sources of pyridoxine include wheat germ, sunflower seeds, beans, poultry and brown rice.

Folic Acid Folic Acid, also known as folacin or vitamin B9, functions along with vitamin B12 and vitamin C in the utilisation of proteins. It has an essential role in he formation of heme, the iron-containing protein in haemoglobin and therefore is important in the formation of red blood cells. Folic acid (along with vitamin B6 and B12) is needed to regulate homocysteine in the blood, high levels of which are associated with cardiovascular disease and impaired mental function. Folic acid is essential during pregnancy as it is integral in the formation of the spinal chord in the developing foetus. Food sources of folic acid include beans and legumes, citrus foods and juices, wheat bran and other whole grains, poultry and dark green leafy vegetables.
