Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between methylcobalamin and cyanocobalamin?
A: Methylcobalamin is an active form of B12 that the body can use immediately. Cyanocobalamin is a synthetic form that the body must first convert into an active form. Methylcobalamin is generally preferred.
Q: Is 100 mcg a sufficient dose?
A: The recommended daily B12 intake for adults is 2.4 mcg. 100 mcg is significantly higher, but B12 is water-soluble and excess is naturally excreted. A higher dose ensures that the body receives enough even in cases of poor absorption.
