Vitamin B 12 Ingredients

Vitamin B12 is a nutrient that helps keep the body’s nerve and blood cells healthy and helps make DNA, the genetic material in all cells. The vitamin B12 combines with the folate in the formation of DNA. It is not only needed for the synthesis and regulation of the fatty acids, it is needed for energy production.

Methionine is an amino acid that reduces fats, aids in lowering cholesterol, and helps synthesize other amino acids need by the body. It is also one of the nutrients required for the body to produce choline. A deficiency of methionine will adversely affect fat metabolism by limiting choline production. The body cannot produce methionine-it must be supplied through diet and supplementation.

Inositol metabolizes fats and cholesterol and helps transport fats in the blood system. Thus, inositol can aid in the redistribution of body fat and can help to lower cholesterol levels, by moving cholesterol to the liver where it can be excreted. A deficiency of inositol produces an accumulation of triglycerides in the liver, which impairs normal liver function and can lead to weight gain.

Choline works in combination with inositol and emulsifies cholesterol so that it does not settle on arterial walls. Without choline, fats can become trapped in the liver and block metabolic functions.

Riboflavin is required for the proper development of many things in the body including the skin, lining of the digestive tract, blood cells, and brain function. Riboflavin helps covert carbohydrates into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The compound ATP is vital for storing energy in the muscles.

L-Carnitine is an amino acid that is produced in the body that helps the body turn FAT into energy. It shuttles fatty acids from the blood into the mitochondria, the energy producing “furnaces” in the cells, so that the fatty acids can be used as energy.
