Jarrow Formulas Extra Strength Methyl B-12 1000 mcg - Dietary Supplement - 100 Lemon Flavored Chewable Tablets - Bioactive Vitamin B-12 - Supports Cellular Energy Production, Sleep & Brain Health

I recently tested low for B-12. I use Jarrow products because they are what my cardiologist and PCP recommend. Their products are quality, and third party tested and researched. I do notice that I get headaches a bit more often after taking these, but I’m hoping that resolves after my body acclimates to the supplement. Overall, if you need B-12, go with the methyl formulation and avoid the Cyanocobalamin (which is what many big box store B-12 variants are, especially in mainstream multivitamins). This is the “good stuff” at a price lower than most the rest.

If youre going to take B-12 you should think about the form you take. The methyl B12 is the natural form of B12 and it doesnt need to be converted by the liver, whereas if you take the other form and it has to be converted it might not be as effective or might not work at all. Also, methyl-B12 should be in a sublingual form, as this is in order to work best. Jarrow Methyl-B12 1000 mcg sublingual lozenges has everything one would want in a B-12. I buy this one for my kids and hubby, while I take 5000 mcg. Highly recommend!

This B12 placed under the tongue will not completely dissolve; it needs to be chewed. Flavor is not as good as other brands I have previously used.

Bought this at the recommendation of my doctor as she said that I needed to increase my B12 intake. She also specified that the methylcobalamin version of B12 is better than the other more commonly seen cyanocobalamin and that a sublingual version provides better absorption than a swallowed version. A lot of the sublingual tablets are cherry flavored and I hate cherry so I thought that a lemon option would be good. To be honest this doesnt really taste like lemon to me it just tastes generically sweet which isnt bad I guess. It does take a long time to dissolve which I guess is good to give your body ample time to be able to absorb this sublingually but sometimes I get impatient and end up chewing and swallowing the last 20% of the tablet.

I let the lozenges slowly dissolve under my tongue, which usually happens after only a few minutes. They taste good. I bought the 1,000 mcg and am happy with the dosage. Ive tried the 500 mcg and I didnt feel my mood improve as much with those. Although the research says its fine, Im not comfortable taking the higher mcg options that Jarrow has available, but thats just my personal preference, and the 1,000 is great for me. B12 is critical for improved mood and the B vitamins play a key role in preventing aging. They are especially necessary if you on a vegetarian or vegan diet, which I tend to be.

I have used only one bottle of 100 lozenges so far but I am satisfied with the price, the quality of the B12, the taste and the life of the product in use. The only drawback is that they tend to take a long time to dissolve under my tongue and when they do, they are grainy at the end. That is a drawback, but not a problem for me. They are almost tasteless also, which I believe is good (supposed to be lemon flavored, but I cant taste it for the most part - that is fine with me). I bought several bottles of them - Ill update if they dont keep. I had tried another brand and found that they took on moisture in an area like Houston, TX with high humidity. These do not seem to be bothered as much because they dont dissolve as rapidly as the others (although I havent been to Houston since I got them). My switch, however, was a good move I believe. These are also half the price, though they are 4 times as large in size as the other brand.

Product was as described by seller and arrived when expected. This was a reorder. Very satisfied.

I take a medication that depletes B12 from the body, and Id like to avoid taking B12 shots if I can. This supplement contains the form of B12 that is most easily assimilated by the body. The flavor is very, very mild in my opinion. Personally, I felt better when taking the stronger 5000mcg supplement, so after a month or so of these, Ive returned to that strength. Overall though, Ive always been very pleased with Jarrow products.

Ive been using this product for a few years and just read the label yesterday and found that you only take it every 2 to 3 days. I was taking it every day, but I guess because Im 75, its OK. Now, Im taking it every other day. Dont notice any problems, but like to follow the rules. I take B-100 Complex also because I have hypoglycemia. I read where B-12 is good for older people because we dont make our own anymore. Good brand and Amazon.com is great!

From the research I did before purchase, Im satisfied Jarrow makes quality vitamins. The taste is nice, not overwhelming and not like a kid product. I got these for my wife because she has tinnitus and they seem to be helping after two weeks of use.
