Thanks for those details.

You will need to take a separate B12... at least 1000mcg. Methylcobalamin. Take this on an empty stomach, for best absorption. Only about 13mcg get actually absorbed out of that 1000mcg dose.

Some stores now carry this....
example--Walgreens

You can chew them up and swallow with water... no food for about an hr after taking. Food will block absorption of the tiny 13mcgs.

Your product is quite low in dosing. I really like the Jarrow B-right...it has activated forms now for some of the vitamins.

Jarrow makes a methylcobalamin too. At one time it was difficult to find and Jarrow was the one we used. But now I get ours at Costco for huge $$ savings. It works out to pennies a day.

Do not buy any B12 that says "timed release". as those are useless.
