Isotonix®B-12 Special Formula gives our body the proper amount of Vitamin B-12 in an isotonic form, which allows for maximum absorption by your body. According to Robert M. Russell of the USRDA's Human Nutrition Center on Aging at Tufts University, Vitamin B-12 is probably the single most important nutrient adversely affected by aging.
B-12 helps reduce the negative effects on your body of stress and provides you with extra energy to keep up today's busy lifestyles.
B-12/Folic Acid
Vitamin B12 is essential for the normal functioning of all body cells, but especially those of the nervous system, bone marrow, and intestinal tract. Both folic acid and vitamin B12 are involved in the normal development and functioning of the red blood cells and they work in conjunction to construct the genetic material of the cells. Folic acid is also responsible for normal utilization of amino acids and proteins.
Bad eating habits, digestive disorders, alcohol use and drug intake are all factors which may influence the availability of Vitamin B12 and folic acid in the body. Deficiencies in these areas can lead to problems in the circulatory, nervous and digestive systems and can adversely affect fat, carbohydrate, and protein metabolism. Vegetarians are particularly subject to vitamin B12 deficiencies because B12 does not occur in plants (with the exception of peanuts ) in any appreciable amount.
The normal requirements for these B-complex vitamins are small in comparison to some other members of the group, but they are very important.
