I don't think so unless huge amounts are taken with it.

I took my B12 with my thyroid first thing in the morning and had a cup of tea with it. I got a test reading of 1999 after about 3 months on 5mg a day, that way. It is fiber...food...that seems to affect it. Think of a big full stomach... how are micrograms going to be dispersed in all that?

As it is, most supplement makers and doctors haven't made this connection at all. The study on this thread however does state the absorption of B12 orally during empty stomach situations.
No one is calling that from the rooftops or commonly on the net!
It is only because of my training and experience that I know about it.
