How we read this product

Supplement Facts panel for Vitamin B12 5000mcg Sublingual

    We read the label.

    The panel on the left is the one we evaluated, line by line.

  2. 02
    Every active, separately.

    All 1 actives checked against the clinical evidence: dose, form, and what the research actually shows.

  3. 03
    Then the formula as a whole.

    Doses, ratios, and how the ingredients work together. That assessment is the verdict above: "Backed by human trials".

  4. 04
    Earned, not bought.

    The verdict is public and identical whether or not a brand pays. A formula that does not clear the bar gets nothing.

Read by the engine against 2.1 million data points from clinical trials, PubMed and more than a hundred vetted sources. No individual reviewer is named or implied.

General timing

How each ingredient usually behaves over time.

One ingredient, from its own page.

  • Vitamin B12About four to twelve weeks

    Serum B12 responds within days of daily use, and methylmalonic acid, the marker of supply inside cells, settles across four to twelve weeks.

    Its own page, the plain answer on timing

How each ingredient usually behaves over time, from its own page on IngredientMD. General timing for the ingredient, not a measurement of this product.

Chemical form

The same ingredient, carried differently.

What each form is, and where it fits in a formula. Measured findings carry the study that reported them.

  • Methylcobalamin

    Cobalamin carrying a methyl group on the upper axial position of the corrin ring, the coenzyme form used by methionine synthase.

    Fits
    Products aiming to supply a coenzyme form directly, and sublingual formats where a coloured, light-sensitive powder is pressed into a small tablet.
    Trade-off
    Photolabile and less thermally stable than cyanocobalamin, so it needs opaque packaging and a shorter stated shelf life.

Descriptions of the form itself, read from the cited studies. Not a comparison between products and not a statement about any individual.

Tablet
