Product information "pure encapsulations® B12 Folate Melt"
Combination of vitamin B12 and folate as a lozenge
Folate and vitamin B12 are close partners in the metabolism. Together they can help to reduce tiredness and fatigue. They also work as a team to break down homocysteine. Homocysteine is an amino acid that is produced in the body as an intermediate product and should be broken down quickly. With reduced intake (e.g. older people) or utilisation, vitamin B12 and folic acid levels in the body can be reduced. An adequate supply of folic acid is particularly important for women who wish to have children.
Vitamin B12 is only found in sufficient quantities in animal foods. This is why people with a low-meat diet in particular benefit from additional intake via supplements.
B12 Folate Melt from Pure Encapsulations® is a lozenge that supports the optimal supply of vitamin B12 and folate. Both vitamins are already activated and are quickly available to the metabolism. B12 Folate Melt utilises the active transport mechanism for absorption and also passive diffusion via the oral mucosa and the small intestine. It has a pleasant taste (cherry and vanilla flavour) and is particularly suitable for people with swallowing difficulties.
