VITAMIN B12 DEFICIENCY
Vitamin B12 is important for functioning of brain and nervous system. It plays vital roles in fat and protein metabolism, hemoglobin and red blood cell production, DNA synthesis and nerve maintenance and repair. Some of the symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency include fatigue, lethargy, depression, poor memory, breathlessness, headaches, and pale skin. If ignored for too long, Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause severe and permanent damage. Since Vitamin B12 effects the brain function it can also effect the mood and low levels of vitamin B12 is also linked to depression and paranoia.
DOSAGE
Recommended Dietary allowance for Vitamin B12 varies with age, whether person is pregnant, or nursing, if there is a condition that needs to be treated or if a person is healthy. Usually for healthy adults the dosage is considered to be 2.4-4.0 mcg per day irrespective of which type of B12 (cobalamin) is being taken. However, for people having vitamin B-12 deficiency the doctor may prescribe higher doses. Since Vitamin B12 is water soluble, so excess Vitamin B12 is removed by the body (and doses upto 500-1000 mcg won't cause side-effects). There are no Upper intake levels suggested, however, if a person ends up in taking extremely high amounts of B-12 body will start using more water to purge the excess B12 out of body and may start showing the symptoms of overdose such as flushing of the skin, increased thirst, excessive urination and diarrhea.
ARE THESE PILLS VEGAN
The information on the bottle says that these are vegan and does not contain wheat, glutten, soybeans, dairy, egg, fish/shellfish, peanuts/tree nuts. Usually Vitamin B-12 is synthesized by bacteria found in animals, so B-12 is found in sources such as seafood, beef, poultry, eggs and milk or other dairy products. For people following strictly vegetarian diet, they might have Vitamin b12 deficiency and these pills seems to be a good fit for them.
Also, while reading up on these pills I came across some interesting information on several web-sites about these vitamins and why are they named so.
WHY IS VITAMIN B NAMED SO
Vitamin B has an interesting history. In the 19th and early 20th century scientists were looking into a disease called beriberi (whose symptoms included weakness and loss of feeling in the feet and legs, edema of the trunk, difficulty in breathing etc.) Several researchers had observed that this disease was related to rice diet. It wasn't until Adolphe Vorderman (a medical inspector for prison) noticed that prisoners who had a diet of mostly brown rice had significantly less cases of beriberi than the prisoners who had diet of mostly white rice. After this several scientists were trying to separate the compound in brown rice that was responsible for preventing beriberi.
A polish scientist named "Casimir Funk" claimed to have separated that compound and named it vitamine by combining vital amines (because it contained an amino group.) Though it was realized later that he was not completely successful in isolating the active compound from rice.It was American biochemist "Elmer McCollum" who was successful in doing that. Since they did not understood the complete chemical composition of the compound yet, so compound was give a generic name "factor B". He had also named another compound he had discovered as "factor A". However, scientific community needed a batter names than water soluble factor B (or fat-soluble factor A) so they adapted Funk's nomenclature and naming them as Vitamin A, Vitamin B. The "e" at the end of vitamine was removed because not all compound contained animo groups and one of the rules of nomenclature mentioned naming "a neutral substance of undefined composition" ending in "in". So the name Vitamin was adopted by scientific community and most of the new compounds were named similarly e.g. Vitamin C, Vitamin D until their complete chemical composition could be determined (some exception exists such as Vitamin K which was derived from German word Koagulation (coagulation) since this compound was a prerequisite for blood coagulation)
Though even after determining the complete chemical composition of Vitamins, we still call them as Vitamin because it is easier to remember them instead of the chemical term.
WHY IS VITAMIN B12 NAMED SO
After further research it was found that what was earlier thought to be single vitamin was in-fact chemically distinct compounds that occurred in the food together. All these compounds were given numbers e.g. Vitamin B9 is folic acid. Vitamin B12 is a compound that contains the essential mineral cobalt.
There were several Vitamin B discovered, however it was late found that only few of the Vitamin Bs are actual vital: Vitamin B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, and B12. Supplements that contain all these are sold as Vitamin B complex.
WHAT IS METHYL B12
Vitamin B12 is also called cobalamin, which refers to compound that have cobal ion in the middle. Depending upon to which component cobalt is attached to it is named differently (Cyanocobalamin, Hydroxocobalamin, Adenosylcobalamin, and Methylcobalamin) Methylcobalamin contains cobalt joined with Methyl
IS METHYL B12 SPECIAL
The bottle mentions that Methyl B12 is superior form of B12. I am not sure of if the body gets more benefits from this form of B12, but Adenosylcobalamin, and Methylcobalamin are the forms of B12 that naturally occur in the body. So the body doesn't have to covert this form of vitamin B12 and can be absorbed easily.

Even after 4 months of use, improvement was negligible.
I switched to this chewable tablet option and in a month I see myself back to normal and can workout as I used to about a year ago.
I don't know why are the swallowing tablets even sold at all. They aren't effective when it comes to B12 vitamin. It has to be taken through tongue as even doctor advised.
My 2 cents that we should always go for chewable option for B12.
And this one works like a charm.
After about an year of struggle and stress on why I am so weak, I now finally feel great again!

The taste is nice.
Hence 2 stars.
Unfortunately they make me so hungry, I could eat a horse. I tried taking the tablet in the morning or later on during the day: I feel normal before I take the tablet, then about one hour after taking it, I am soo hungry for the rest of the day.
After a week+ I started to feel my jeans getting a bit tighter, but otherwise I didn't notice any change in how I feel.
Today I didn't take the tablet and my apetite is normal again. It's a shame and £20 going in the bin.
Don’t taste horrible. Easy to chew.
One a day. Definitely helped me to stop being so tired, so often..
