Vegan Vitamin B12 from Fairnatural

Vitamins are extremely important for your physical and mental health and should therefore be integrated into your daily diet. This includes organic vitamin B12, which is indispensable because it offers many benefits for your body. Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin and is also called cobalamin. It comprises several compounds, all of which have a ring system that contains cobalt. Bio Vitamin B12 is significantly involved in various metabolic processes in the body, including the breakdown of fatty acids and amino acids. The vitamin is in particular focus as a critical nutrient for vegans because it is primarily found in animal foods in sufficient amounts and is only present in small amounts in (intensively fermented) plant foods.

Vitamin C deficiency - causes and symptoms

But despite this, a vitamin C deficiency can still be observed in many people - how can this be explained? For one thing, your vitamin C requirement can be increased in certain life situations. This includes, for example, a strong physical load through intensive training. On the other hand, vitamin C absorption can also be negatively influenced by various factors, such as regular nicotine and alcohol consumption, various medications, gastrointestinal disease or even food preparation. In these cases, it is then useful to supplement organic vitamin C additionally, even with a balanced diet, via dietary supplements such as our organic vitamin C from organic acerola.How do you recognize such a vitamin C deficiency? Depending on how severe the deficiency is, the symptoms can vary. The most common symptoms are lack of energy and strength, higher susceptibility to infections, delayed wound healing, muscle pain and sensitive gums. To check your vitamin C blood level and prevent a deficiency, we recommend that you have regular blood tests with your doctor.

Vitamin B12 - Daily requirement

Wie viel Vitamin B12 benötige ich? Die empfohlene Zufuhr für Erwachsene (25 bis < 51 Jahre) pro Tag liegt bei 3,0 µg Vitamin B12. Schwangeren und stillenden Frauen wird eine etwas höhere Zufuhr von 3,5 -4,0 µg pro Tag empfohlen. Auch mit zunehmenden Alter nimmt die empfohlene Tagesdosis an Vitamin B12 zu, die eine Person benötigt. Ältere Menschen sollten ihre Vitamin-B12-Zufuhr deshalb unter Umständen erhöhen, da es um das 50. Lebensjahr herum schwieriger wird, Bio Vitamin B12 in ausreichender Menge aufzunehmen.

Health benefits of vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 is essential for various important processes and functions in your body, which is why you should always keep an eye on and check your organic vitamin B12 requirements.

Red blood cell production

Vitamin B12 promotes the production of red blood cells. Red blood cells transport oxygen from your lungs to all other parts of your body. They then exchange the oxygen for carbon dioxide and transport the carbon dioxide back to the lungs, where you then exhale it. If the vitamin B12 deficiency is too high, this production of red blood cells is impaired, which leads to an impaired transport of oxygen.

Prevention of age-related diseases

Vitamin B12 also helps prevent diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's because it can slow brain shrinkage - that is, the shrinking of general brain volume and the regression of neurons - in older people. In fact, a study by the American Academy of Neurology found that older people with lower levels of B12 in their blood lose more brain volume in five years than they would otherwise. Bio Vitamin B12 is therefore very crucial for a well-functioning brain and an intact nervous system. However, vitamin B12 supplements unfortunately do not seem to improve memory loss in those people who already have Alzheimer's disease.

Improvement of depressive moods

In addition, vitamin B12 can improve the state of mind and alleviate the symptoms of depression. Although research is not yet clear about the exact extent of the effect, it is already known for certain that there is a connection between vitamin B12 deficiency and neuropsychiatric clinical pictures such as depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder and mood swings. In fact, vitamin B12 is needed for the development of serotonin, which controls mood.

Hair, skin and nail growth

Lastly, vitamin B12 supports the growth of healthy hair, skin, and nails by providing oxygen to these tissues. However, this is only helpful if you are deficient in vitamin B12. If your vitamin B12 levels are already adequate, taking additional organic vitamin B12 supplements will not improve the health of your hair, skin and nails to any great extent.

Buy Vitamin B12 from Fairnatural Organic Dietary Supplements

In summary, you need a variety of essential vitamins for your physical and mental health, which also includes Bio Vitamin B12. Bio vitamin B12 is especially important for cell division, blood formation and nerve function. That's why you should make sure that you get enough of this organic vitamin B12 in your natural diet. However, since this is somewhat more difficult for vegetarians and especially vegans, you can also buy additional organic vitamin B12 online, for example, right here at Fairnatural. In addition to our organic vitamin B12, which is organic and vegan, you can also find other products such as Whey, vitamin supplements and superfood products in our Fairnatural store. These can help you prevent deficiencies in all essential vitamins - not just organic vitamin B12. Just take a look, we are sure that there will be something for you!

Vitamin B12 - intake

Wie deckst du deinen Vitamin B12-Bedarf? Die besten natürlichen Nahrungsquellen für die Einnahme von Vitamin B12 sind Fleisch, Geflügel, Eier, Milchprodukte, Fisch und angereichertes Getreide. Vitamin B12 kommt also primär in tierischen Nahrungsmitteln vor und wird vorteilhafterweise durch das Kochen dieser Lebensmittel auch kaum zerstört. Die empfohlenen drei bis vier Mikrogramm ließen sich beispielsweise bereits mit einem kleinen Glas Milch, einem Becher Jogurt, einem Ei und 60 Gramm Camembert erreichen. In pflanzlichen Lebensmitteln ist Bio Vitamin B12 nur enthalten, wenn es zu einer Bakteriengärung (wie z.B. bei Sauerkraut) gekommen ist, dann jedoch auch nur in sehr geringen Mengen. Eine bedarfsdeckende Vitamin-B12-Zufuhr nur mit pflanzlichen Lebensmitteln ist also nicht möglich. Deshalb kommt es häufig vor, dass Vegetarier*innen und vor allem Veganer*innen zu einem B12-Mangel neigen und Bio Vitamin B12 Nahrungsergänzungsmittel für die Deckung ihres Bedarfs benötigen. Bei deiner Produktwahl zur Bio Vitamin B12 Nahrungsergänzung solltest du immer ein qualitativ hochwertiges und biologisch qualifiziertes Produkt verwenden. Dies ist sehr wichtig zu beachten, egal ob du zu einem Bio Vitamin B12 Pulver oder zu Präparaten in Kapselform greifst. Fairnatural's Bio Vitamin B12 kann diesen Qualitätsanspruch erfüllen – viele unserer Produkte sind Bio-zertifiziert (DE-ÖKO-007) – und wird in Kapselform für eine einfache und schnelle Einnahme angeboten. Zudem solltest du Vitamin B12-Präparate kaufen, welche mit deiner individuell benötigten Dosierung übereinstimmen, um den Vitamin B12 Mangel effizient zu bekämpfen und auch um eine Überdosierung zu vermeiden.

Symptoms and causes of vitamin B12 deficiency

Between 1.5 and 15 percent of the general population suffer from a vitamin B12 deficiency. Symptoms of such a deficiency include megaloblastic anemia (impaired oxygen transport), weight loss, burning of the tongue, weakness, tingling of the hands and feet, neurological changes such as memory loss and depression, and fatigue and drowsiness. Deficiency of Bio Vitamin B12 prior to pregnancy may also be an independent risk factor for complications such as miscarriage, as well as have negative effects on the newborn child.Bio Vitamin B12 is the only water-soluble vitamin that the body can store in relatively large amounts - primarily in the liver - for several years. For this reason, deficiency symptoms often only appear after several years of insufficient intake. If you take in too little vitamin B12 with natural foods, the body first taps into its own depots. Therefore, it is very important to have your blood levels checked at least once a year to be able to prevent such deficiency symptoms early on. Causes of a vitamin B12 deficiency can be - in addition to a too low intake through the diet as with vegetarians and vegans - also due to the insufficient formation of transport protein, the so-called intrinsic factor. Without the intrinsic factor, free vitamin B12 cannot be absorbed in the digestive tract. This means that for vitamin B12 to be utilized by the organism at all, this substance must first be formed by the gastric mucosa. Thus, for example, chronic inflammations of the stomach can promote a vitamin B12 deficiency and it can, especially through mucosal changes in the stomach in older people faster to an undersupply of Bio Vitamin B12 come.Side effects with too much B12 are rather unlikely. Since Bio Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin, your body normally absorbs only the necessary amounts of Bio Vitamin B12 and excretes the rest through the urine.
