Product Description

Douglas Laboratories B-Complex is unique, including Metafolin, Methylcobalamin Vitamin B12, and Intrinsic Factor in its formulation. Metafolin contains only the S isomer of 5-MTHF and has been shown to be the only form of folate to be able to cross the blood-brain barrier. Studies indicate that methylcobalamin, a coenzyme form of B12, may be better utilized and better retained in the body. Intrinsic factor is a protein produced by cells in the stomach lining and is needed for the intestines to absorb vitamin B12 efficiently.

Vitamins, minerals and amino acids form the brick-and-mortar foundation of a healthy body. The 2015 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee reported that many Americans fall short in obtaining sufficient quantities of these important nutrients, including vitamins A, C, D and E, folate, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and fiber. Also, the prevalence of insufficient nutrient intake tends to increase with age. 35 to 40 percent of older adults who do not take supplements have inadequate B6 intake, and older adults often have difficulty obtaining enough B12 from their diet. Supplementation with vitamins, minerals and amino acids can play a valuable role in helping to fill these gaps.*
