Description
As we age‚ it can become harder and harder for our bodies to absorb vitamin B12‚ leading to a possible vitamin B12 deficiency. This is serious because vitamin B12 serves and takes part in numerous bodily functions. For example‚ vitamin B12 might regulate certain amino acids in our body‚ like homocysteine (an amino acid linked with arteriosclerosis when it's present in high levels in the body). Vitamin B12 also plays an important role in DNA synthesis‚ controlling the chromosomes structural integrity in regions such as the centromere (which connects sister chromatids) and subtelomere (section of DNA between telometric caps and chromatin).
If an individual isn't getting enough vitamin B12‚ then they might develop vitamin B12 deficiency‚ a condition characterized by weakness/light-headedness‚ pale skin‚ diarrhea/constipation‚ and more. If not treated‚ a vitamin B12 deficiency can damage nerve cells and possibly cause memory loss‚ dementia‚ difficulty walking‚ and more.
Another possible outcome of low vitamin B12 is anemia. Since the essential vitamin is an integral component in creating red blood cells‚ which are responsible for transporting oxygen to bodily tissue‚ low levels of vitamin B12 inhibit the body's ability to create red blood cells.
It's obvious that vitamin B12 is essential to a balanced‚ healthy body. For this reason PureFormulas is proud to present Progressive Labs' B-12 Lingual‚ a B12 supplement that also features folic acid. Folic acid‚ like vitamin B12‚ is an important factor in the production of red blood cells. Therefore‚ with the combination of vitamin B12 and folic acid‚ Progressive Labs' vitamin B12 supplement might be the ideal dietary supplement for those who are looking to prevent or possibly treat anemia and vitamin B12 deficiency.
