What is B-12?

B-12 is required vitamin for the proper function and development of the brain, nerves, blood cells, and many other parts of the body. Vitamin B12 also plays an important role in the breakdown or metabolism of fats and carbohydrates and has a role in protein synthesis.

Severe vitamin B12 deficiency causes neurologic (nerve) disease and anemia. Even subtle B12 deficiency without anemia, is associated with dementia and low cognitive function.
