Vitamin B12 Supplementation Highly Recommended for the Elderly
The elderly, who are prone to developing Vitamin B12 deficiency, may greatly benefit from Vitamin B12 supplementation.
(firmenpresse) - Orlando, Florida – Vitamin B12, considered as the most complex vitamin, is essential for proper nerve and brain function, production of healthy red blood cells, and DNA synthesis. Although one may get it from their diet, they may not be able to absorb it properly. The elderly are among those who are prone to developing Vitamin B12 deficiency due to malabsorption of the vitamin. As such, supplementation of the vitamin is highly recommended for the elderly.
Vitamin B12 is primarily found in animal-based foods such as beef, poultry, shellfish, egg, and milk. As such, except for vegans, one may easily get it from their diet. However, just because one’s diet includes animal-based foods does not mean that they are getting sufficient amounts of the vitamin. Because of certain factors, one may not be able to absorb it properly. One of these factors is age.
While Vitamin B12 may be stored in the liver for a long period of time, its levels tend to diminish with age. It is protein-bound, and sufficient amounts of hydrochloric acid are required for it be released and absorbed by the body. The elderly are more likely to have atrophic gastritis, which is characterized by the inflammation of the stomach lining. Furthermore, the disease reduces the ability of the body to produce hydrochloric acid, sufficient amounts of which are needed for the absorption of the vitamin. Supplementation of the vitamin, however, may help the elderly avoid Vitamin B12 deficiency.
Vitamin B12 may be taken as liquid, which is considered to have a fast absorption rate. In general, 85-90% of the ingredients found in liquid supplements are absorbed by the body in 22 to 30 seconds. One supplement that the elderly can take is Choice Nutrition Supplements’ Vitamin B-12 Complex , which is made in the USA in a GMP certified and FDA registered facility. As such, they are assured of its quality and safety. Other than the elderly, Vitamin B12 supplementation may also be beneficial for vegans, pregnant women, and individuals taking acid-reflux drugs.
“I’d been receiving B-12 injections at the doctor’s office for the diagnosis of fatigue and tingling in the legs. A friend suggested that I try this product and I switched to the Vitamin B-12 Complex Sublingual for convenience. I am glad I did. I really feel this has helped my energy level would highly recommend this product.” – Brenda
