Cherry Flavor B-12

This Ola Loa Cherry Flavor Sublingual B-12 (HydroxyCobalamin) product is the "mother" of all B-12's. Typically this form of B-12 is only available through a Nutrition Medical Doctor. It is the body's preferred form of vitamin B-12—referred to as being the "natural transport factor" for Cobalamin. Ola Loa's Hydroxy B-12 provides greater absorption and better utilization than any other form of B-12.

Vegan Formula ~ Sublingual activated tablet ~ Promotes energy, nerve and brain support ~ Advanced formula with Active Folate and activated Hydroxy B-12

Ola Loa's sublingual B-12 is paired with the preferred form of Active-Folate (Folinic Acid), which work together in tandem. Ola Loa has been committed to providing the very best form of Vitamin B-12 since we released our first product in 1999. We agree with many in the scientific community that no one should use Cyanide B-12 (CyanoCobalamin), an inexpensive form is used in virtually all supplements that contain vitamin B-12.

CAUSES OF VITAMIN B-12 DEFICIENCY

Vegetarian diets - B-12 is found almost exclusively in animal foods. Plants are not a reliable source of B-12.
Alcohol consumption - Excessive intake of alcohol in the diet is known to deplete B-12.
Digestive disorders - Celiac Disease and Crohn's Disease all deplete B-12.
Medications - Medications for diabetes or long-term use of acid reflux drugs; Stomach bypass surgery; Nitrous Oxide or "laughing gas" during surgery and unregulated Nitric Oxide are known causes of B-12 depletion.
Intrinsic Factors - A protein in the stomach allows the absorption of most B-12, so if you have weak Intrinsic Factor you will not absorb much B-12.

Ola Loa Sublingual B-12 (HydroxyCobalamin) is the "mother" of all B-12's—typically available only through a Nutrition Medical Doctor. It uses the body's preferred form of vitamin B-12, and is referred to as being the "natural transport factor" for Cobalamin. It provides greater absorption and better utilization than any other form of B-12, and it's the form we use in Ola Loa's Hydroxy B-12.

There are numerous forms of vitamin B-12 found in supplements:

Cyanocobalamin (NOT SO GOOD)

• Cyanocobalamin (Cyanide B-12) is found in most B-12 supplements because it is cheaper than other forms of B-12.
• Cyanocobalamin is a B-12 molecule bound to a toxic cyanide molecule. Too much Cyanocobalamin can be toxic.
• The Cyanocobalamin form of B-12 is not used efficiently by the body, mostly excreted out of your body in about 5 hours.

Methylcobalamin (BETTER)

• Methylcobalamin may interefere with the body's natural methyl transfer from folate to cobalamin resulting in impaired DNA replication.

Hydroxycobalamin (THE BEST... it's what we use in Ola Loa B-12!)

• Hydroxycobalamin is not Intrinsic Factor dependent as is Methyl-B-12. Hydroxy B-12 can also bind to plasma proteins offering greater absorption and transportability, as well as increased availability in circulation.
• Hydroxy B-12 stays active in the body for 5 days or more! It remains longer than CyanoCobalamin and is absorbed up to 300% better than Methylcobalamin
• Hydroxy B-12 is the only form of B-12 which detoxifies Cyanide, Ammonia, Sulfite, and unregulated Nitric Oxide (which can become pro-inflammatory). Unregulated Nitric Oxide is, in fact, the hallmark of inflammation.
• Hydroxycobalamin is the only form of Vitamin B-12 which can penetrate the Mitochondria.
• Hydroxy B-12 makes more AdenosyCobalamin (the other active form of B-12) than any other form of B-12.
