Why take a B12 and folate supplement?

The combination of vitamin B12 and folate has many benefits to your health. Folate supports red blood production and vascular, cognitive and DNA health, while B12 supports nerve cell growth and heart health.

How much B12 and folate should you take?

As with any supplement, you should always follow label instructions to ensure you are taking nutrients as intended. Read the label carefully and only take supplements as directed.

What is the difference between B12 and B12 folate?

B12 and folate are a combination of two forms of vitamin B, whereas vitamin B12 is a standalone form of vitamin B. You can find B12 in singular formulas, but it is also combined with folate, either in a dual-action supplement or B-complex.

Does B12 affect bowel movements?

There is some evidence that B12 deficiency can impact the digestive tract. This is why it’s so important to make sure you’re getting enough of this vitamin to avoid deficiency.

What happens to your body when you take vitamin B12 every day?

Taking vitamin B12 is a great way to support your body and health. Vitamin B12 supports brain health and cognition, homocysteine levels within a normal range and even supports nerve cell growth and metabolism.
