Who it is for

For adults who want to supplement their vitamin B12 intake simply and without water, especially on a vegetarian or vegan diet, as vitamin B12 occurs almost only in foods of animal origin.

What is in one lozenge?

Each tablet contains 500 µg of vitamin B12, which is 20,000% of the nutrient reference value (NRV). The vitamin comes from three compounds: methylcobalamin, 5'-deoxyadenosylcobalamin and hydroxocobalamin. The main part of the tablet, at 80%, is the sweetener xylitol.

Suck instead of swallow

The tablet does not have to be swallowed with water. It can be left to dissolve under the tongue, sucked or chewed. This makes taking it easy on the go, too. As xylitol is a sugar substitute, excessive consumption may have a laxative effect.

Vitamin B12 on a plant-based diet

Vitamin B12 occurs in notable amounts almost only in foods of animal origin such as meat, fish, eggs and dairy products. Anyone following a vegan diet should therefore supplement vitamin B12; the German Nutrition Society (DGE) also recommends this.

As an estimated value for an adequate intake, the DGE gives 4 µg of vitamin B12 per day for adults.
