What is vitamin B12?
Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, belongs to the group of B vitamins. In the body, it contributes to processes related to energy, the nervous system, psychological function, red blood cell formation, immune system function, homocysteine metabolism and cell division. It also contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
In a normal diet, vitamin B12 is found mainly in foods of animal origin: meat, fish, eggs, milk and dairy products. Plant foods are not a reliable natural source of vitamin B12, so B12 intake deserves particular attention in vegans, vegetarians and people who eat animal-based foods only occasionally. The liquid form is practical for those who do not want to swallow capsules and prefer simple drop-by-drop dosing.
Why cyanocobalamin?
Vitamin B12 exists in several forms. In food supplements, you will most often come across cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin, adenosylcobalamin or hydroxocobalamin. They differ in their chemical structure, stability and the way the body processes them.

Cyanocobalamin in practice
A stable and well-established form of vitamin B12
This supplement contains vitamin B12 in the form of cyanocobalamin. It is often used in food supplements because it is stable and stores well. It is suitable for customers who want to supplement vitamin B12 on its own, without other B vitamins.
High concentration in one drop
One drop provides 98 µg of vitamin B12. Higher doses are common in vitamin B12 supplements, because the amount used by the body may vary depending on individual needs and absorption capacity. If you have a diagnosed B12 deficiency, anaemia, long-term digestive problems or have had surgery involving the digestive tract, it is advisable to discuss dosing with your doctor.
When choose standalone vitamin B12 instead of a B-complex?
Standalone vitamin B12 is useful when you want to supplement B12 specifically, rather than the full spectrum of B vitamins. Cyanocobalamin is a stable and simple form for regular use. If you prefer a methylated form of B12, you may choose methylcobalamin; if you are looking for another form with different properties in the body, hydroxocobalamin may be a suitable alternative.
Dosage
The recommended dose is 1 drop daily on a spoon, ideally between meals. The dose should only be changed according to medical advice. Dosage for children should always be discussed with a doctor. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.

Who is this vitamin B12 suitable for?
It is suitable for adults who want to supplement vitamin B12 in a simple liquid form. It is particularly suitable for vegans, vegetarians, people with a low intake of animal-based foods and those who do not like capsules or tablets.
Why is vitamin B12 important in vegan and vegetarian diets?
Vitamin B12 occurs naturally mainly in foods of animal origin. In a fully plant-based diet, intake therefore needs to come from fortified foods or food supplements. For vegetarians, it depends on how many eggs and dairy products they normally eat.
Why choose cyanocobalamin?
Cyanocobalamin is a stable and well-researched form of vitamin B12. It is suitable for regular supplementation, stores well and, in liquid form, can be measured precisely drop by drop. After intake, the body converts it into active forms of B12, which it then uses.
How do I choose between cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin and hydroxocobalamin?
If you want a stable, clean and easy-to-dose vitamin B12 for everyday supplementation, choose cyanocobalamin. If you specifically prefer an active methylated form, methylcobalamin may be more suitable for you. If you have a confirmed B12 deficiency, anaemia, absorption problems or take medicines that affect B12 levels, discuss the choice of form and dose with your doctor.
How is cyanocobalamin different from methylcobalamin?
Cyanocobalamin is a stable form of B12 that the body converts into active forms after intake. It is suitable when you want a simple, well-storing supplement for regular use. Methylcobalamin is one of the active forms of vitamin B12 and is usually chosen when someone specifically wants a methylated form.
How is cyanocobalamin different from hydroxocobalamin?
Cyanocobalamin is a practical form for everyday B12 supplementation in a food supplement. Hydroxocobalamin is another form of B12 that the body also converts into active forms. It is more often used in situations where a doctor decides on the appropriate form and dosage, for example in confirmed vitamin B12 deficiency or absorption problems.
Does each form of vitamin B12 have different effects?
Authorised health claims apply to vitamin B12 as a nutrient, not to each form separately. Cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin and hydroxocobalamin are all used to supplement vitamin B12. They differ mainly in stability, chemical form, how the body processes them and the situations in which they are more practical.
How is it different from Metabolics liquid vitamin B12 methylcobalamin?
Metabolics liquid vitamin B12 methylcobalamin contains methylcobalamin, one of the active forms of vitamin B12. This product contains cyanocobalamin, which stands out for its stability, simple formula and good shelf stability.
How is it different from Metabolics liquid vitamin B12 hydroxocobalamin?
Metabolics liquid vitamin B12 hydroxocobalamin contains another form of vitamin B12, which the body also converts into active coenzyme forms. Cyanocobalamin is a suitable choice where stability, a clean formula and precise drop-by-drop dosing are important.
How is it different from a liquid B-complex?
Liquid B-complex contains several B vitamins. Standalone vitamin B12 is more suitable when you want to supplement B12 specifically, without other B vitamins.
Is liquid vitamin B12 better than capsules?
The liquid form is not generally better than capsules, but it is more practical for some people. It is especially suitable if you do not want to swallow capsules or if you prefer drop-by-drop dosing. With this product, 1 drop daily is enough.
Does it contain gluten, lactose, soya or sugar?
No. According to the manufacturer, this supplement contains no gluten, wheat, lactose, soya or sugar. It also contains no sweeteners, flavourings, artificial colourings, GMOs, yeast or animal-derived ingredients.
Is this vitamin B12 organic?
No, this is not an organic food or a supplement from organic farming. With vitamin B12, the key factors are the form of the active ingredient, the purity of the formula, precise dosing and manufacturing control.
How many servings are in the 100 ml bottle?
The 100 ml bottle contains approximately 1351 drops. At a dose of 1 drop daily, one bottle lasts a very long time.
Where is Metabolics liquid vitamin B12 made?
The product comes from Metabolics, a manufacturer from the United Kingdom. The original name is Metabolics Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin).
Who should consult a doctor before use?

How should the product be stored?
Once opened, store the bottle in the refrigerator, out of reach of children and away from direct light. Close it carefully after each use.
Does this supplement replace a varied diet?
No. A food supplement is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. It is intended only to supplement the normal diet.

About the company
Founded in 1991, Metabolics is a small family-run company based in the south-west of the UK in Wiltshire, specialising in the manufacture of pure dietary supplements without binders and fillers.
Since its inception, it has focused on providing the highest quality nutritional supplements to customers around the world.
Quality and cleanliness are the key elements of work at Metabolics. Only the highest quality raw materials are used to ensure maximum customer satisfaction.
History METABOLICS
The company was founded in 1991 and has been providing its customers with the highest quality nutritional and health supplements ever since.
Metabolics specializes in pure dietary supplements without the use of binders, liquid and firming agents or fillers.
The Society was founded by Alison Astill-Smith, a fully registered and experienced osteopath who trained at The British School of Osteopathy.
Alison was unhappy with the quality of the nutritional supplements that were available for use in her practice, so she decided to set up Metabolics to offer other practitioners and individuals the highest quality nutrition.
Alison also runs informative seminars across the UK and the rest of Europe, providing GPs with a wealth of information on nutrition for health and wellbeing, contributing to their CPD classes.
How it works METABOLICS
Metabolics is completely dedicated to providing the highest level of purity and quality in all of its supplements.
At Metabolics, there is a rule that applies to their entire product line - "Quality Out, Quality In".
Most capsules contain only the active ingredients and nothing else. If the amount of active ingredient is too small to produce a usable product, we add a single filler, namely "vegetable cellulose".
Cellulose is a plant-derived fibre that the body cannot digest, but when the active ingredient in the capsule is released and absorbed; the cellulose simply passes harmlessly through the body.
The encapsulation process is carried out at our manufacturing facility in Wiltshire, which is equipped with the latest technology to ensure that products are produced to the highest standards.
Random batch testing is carried out to ensure that all products meet these very high standards, while at the same time samples are taken after cleaning the equipment to ensure that there is absolutely no possibility of contamination or impact on standards.
Standards METABOLICS
Nothing is added to the dietary supplements from Metabolics.
Only purified water, purified to 18.2 MΩ, is added to all Metabolics liquid dietary supplements. This makes it possible to create liquid dietary supplements with water that is as pure as water can be.
The company is proud to include no hidden fillers, emulsifiers, binders, lubricants or stabilizers in any Metabolics dietary supplements.
This means no magnesium stearate, stearic acid, polyvinylpyrrolidone and sodium carboxymethylcellulose. Nothing that could interfere with the active ingredients contained in any Metabolics product to make them as effective and pure as possible.
The supplements you find in some other well-known products are not there for your benefit. Some other manufacturers use them to make their products easier to manufacture or to make them more aesthetically appealing. It's important to note that some of these additives are machine lubricants, added to make machines run smoother and faster and reduce production costs.
All Metabolics machines are semi-automatic, meaning they operate without added lubricants and are housed in a state-of-the-art cleanroom facility.
Production and quality in clean rooms
At Metabolics, all of their products are manufactured in the UK in their state-of-the-art clean room manufacturing facility.
As far as is known, there is no other UK manufacturer of dietary supplements with the same standard of manufacturing facilities.
If you would like to see a short video of their production facility, you can here: The video highlights how the company goes to great lengths to ensure the quality of all their products, and also shows a behind the scenes look at the production of dietary supplements from formulation to encapsulation.
Accreditation
They are also accredited to ISO:9001 and ISO:14001 standards to help customers gain confidence not only in Metabolics as a company, but also in our entire range of dietary supplements.
Metabolics products are manufactured under the strict rules of GMP & HACCP certification, a rigorous set of requirements that ensure dietary supplements are consistently produced and controlled to a high standard.
This demonstrates the manufacturer's ability to produce dietary supplements that meet the industry's high standards of quality and safety.
In addition, the company uses the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system to consistently provide products and services that meet customer and regulatory requirements.
They also have the ISO 14001:2015 standard, which allows us to measure and improve our environmental performance.
