MethylCobalamin Vitamin B12 Cherry Flavor 5 mg. - 120 Tablets Source Naturals

Source Naturals - MethylCobalamin Vitamin B-12 Cherry Flavor 5 mg. - 120 Tablets

Source Naturals Methylcobalamin is an active co-enzyme form of vitamin B-12 instead of the more commonly available cyanocobalamin form, for energy and nerve health support. B-12 is normally found in meat, seafood, eggs and dairy. Methylcobalamin is an excellent source of B-12 for vegans and older adults. Persons over 60 tend to have less stomach acid, resulting in less absorption of B-12. B-12 is essential for healthy function of red blood cells, regulation of normal homocysteine levels and the production of SAMe, the body’s main methyl donor.

Planetary Herbals Quality Assurance
Behind every good herbal line is a strong quality assurance team. Planetary Herbals has one of the best teams in the industry and follow Good Manufacturing Practices that exceed those mandated by the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DHEA). To ensure that the herbs they use are vital and potent and to prevent any use of adulterants, every herb is checked by a team of quality control specialists. This team is headed by a director who holds a Ph.D. in chemistry and includes staff trained in Chinese and Western herbalism, microbiological assays, heavy metal screenings, and analytical chemistry.

Herbs are first checked in the traditional organoleptic manner (assessment of taste, smell, appearance, and relative quality) and are then subject to a variety of analytic tests. These include qualitative and quantitative analysis using ultraviolet and infrared spectrophotometry, thin layer chromatography (TLC), and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) as well as Inductively Coupled Plasma-Maa Spectrometry (ICP-MS) screening for heavy metals and full microbiological testing to ensure all herbs are free of pathogenic bacteria. All tablets meet the disintegration criteria of the United States Pharmacopoeia.
