Vitamin B12 is an important cofactor in two enzymatic reactions: 1 methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, which helps dissolve branched-chain amino acids and irregular-chain fatty acids; and 2 methionine synthase, which is required for methyl transfer reactions, including the conversion of homocysteine to methionine for protein production. A daily intake of 400 mcg of folic acid during the first trimester reduces neural tube defects by about 50%. Folic acid is a methyl group donor, and research indicates that improper methylation can cause neural tube defects. Similarly, a reduction in vitamin B12 or folic acid leads to an accumulation of homocysteine, which can inhibit methyl transfer reactions. Vitamin B12 enhances methionine synthesis and increases the ability of folic acid to lower homocysteine levels for normal methyl metabolism. The vitamin is also necessary for the methylation of proteins involved in the synthesis and maintenance of myelin, and vitamin deficiencies can result in less production of the myelin sheath, which is a necessary material for normal nervous system function. Methionine synthase is necessary for the formation of red blood cells, and vitamin B12 deficiency has been associated with the production of abnormally large and irregularly shaped blood cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDosage\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cb\u003eAdults: \u003c\/b\u003eChew one tablet daily or as directed by your practitioner. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eNutritional information\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEach tablet contains:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitamin B12 (hydroxocobalamin) 1000 mcg Folate (folic acid) 400 mcg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cb\u003eNon-medicinal ingredients: \u003c\/b\u003eMannitol, maltodextrin, cellulose, stearic acid, natural cherry flavor, silica, carmine \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n[\/TABS]","published_at":"2022-10-25T17:59:20-04:00","created_at":"2022-10-25T17:59:23-04:00","vendor":"Genestra Brands","type":"","tags":["Comprimés croquables","Grossesse \/ Fertilité","Mélange \/ Synergie","Rabais_40%","SANTÉ DES FEMMES","SYSTÈME NERVEUX","Énergie"],"price":1679,"price_min":1679,"price_max":1679,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":2799,"compare_at_price_min":2799,"compare_at_price_max":2799,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":43673423446304,"title":"60 tablets","option1":"60 tablets","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"bio-b12-folic-acid-genestra-brands-60-comprimés","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":41853290021152,"product_id":7974033981728,"position":1,"created_at":"2023-06-30T09:59:44-04:00","updated_at":"2023-06-30T09:59:44-04:00","alt":null,"width":212,"height":406,"src":"\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/114_Bio_B12_Folic_Acid_CA_1ffe2a1a-9cd6-4b3d-8e76-5cc09de8638a.jpg?v=1688133584","variant_ids":[43673423446304]},"available":false,"name":"Bio B12 + Folic Acid - 60 tablets","public_title":"60 tablets","options":["60 tablets"],"price":1679,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":2799,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"883196112418","featured_media":{"alt":null,"id":34220537774368,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.522,"height":406,"width":212,"src":"\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/114_Bio_B12_Folic_Acid_CA_1ffe2a1a-9cd6-4b3d-8e76-5cc09de8638a.jpg?v=1688133584"}},"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/114_Bio_B12_Folic_Acid_CA_1ffe2a1a-9cd6-4b3d-8e76-5cc09de8638a.jpg?v=1688133584","\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/bio-b12-folic-acid_60f5e79d-df88-4927-b9d9-02341718bf58.jpg?v=1688133584"],"featured_image":"\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/114_Bio_B12_Folic_Acid_CA_1ffe2a1a-9cd6-4b3d-8e76-5cc09de8638a.jpg?v=1688133584","options":["Format"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":34220537774368,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.522,"height":406,"width":212,"src":"\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/114_Bio_B12_Folic_Acid_CA_1ffe2a1a-9cd6-4b3d-8e76-5cc09de8638a.jpg?v=1688133584"},"aspect_ratio":0.522,"height":406,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/114_Bio_B12_Folic_Acid_CA_1ffe2a1a-9cd6-4b3d-8e76-5cc09de8638a.jpg?v=1688133584","width":212},{"alt":null,"id":34220537807136,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":3.113,"height":506,"width":1575,"src":"\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/bio-b12-folic-acid_60f5e79d-df88-4927-b9d9-02341718bf58.jpg?v=1688133584"},"aspect_ratio":3.113,"height":506,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/unytiipro.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/bio-b12-folic-acid_60f5e79d-df88-4927-b9d9-02341718bf58.jpg?v=1688133584","width":1575}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh dose B12 formula with folic acid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps prevent vitamin B12 deficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContributes to the formation of red blood cells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps the body metabolize carbohydrates, fats and proteins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps reduce the risk of neural tube defects when taken before the onset and during the early stages of pregnancy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides 1000 mcg of vitamin B12 and 400 mcg of folic acid per dose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n[TABS]\n\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBio B12 + Folic Acid includes a high dose of vitamin B12 to support macronutrient metabolism and prevent vitamin B12 deficiency.
