I don't know if I'm allowed to say this, but I just want to know what you all think? I've been using Jarrows Formula that I get from iherb. It's not that pricey but oh my gosh, look at these prices at Puritan's Pride
Here's the link: http://www.puritan.com/methyl-b12-67...2860?NewPage=1 And if you use the buy 2 get 3 free, you end up with 5 bottles, (30 each) and that totals 150 pills (5000) for $23.98. This has to be the bargain of the century. I would love to hear from anyone who might think it's okay to switch from the Jarrows. Thanks much Melody

Puritan's is a good company. If the $$ works out, I'd go for it.
The methyl is probably made from a major supplier and everyone else buys from them. I did notice this in their new catalog and I thought I posted about it, but now I cannot find where I did! I see this as a very good move forward, that the demand for the better methylB12 is good!

Not only does the money work out, but I went online and found a promotion code for this company and if you are purchasing more than $30.00 worth of vitamins and other things, from Puritan's Pride, you save $15.00 and get free shipping. So we ordered the 5 bottles of Methyl B-12, as well as other stuff. We saved $15.00 and we got free shipping. Remember, you have to have purchased $30.00 or more, and then they deduct the $15.00 and you get free shipping. So with a savings of $15.00 on the order, and no charge for shipping which is usually $4.95, well we saved almost $20.00 I never would have found this out unless I went to google and typed in "Promo code for Puritan's Pride vitamins. YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT. This promo code expires tomorrow. I phoned the 800 number just to make sure it wasn't a scam and the Puritan's Pride rep told me. "Yup, that's a great code and it expires tomorrow". So here's the code TE3QC2H Enjoy Melody

I'll stick with Jarrow. Puritan Pride lied to me about the gluten status of one of their other meds, when I caught the lie, they denied it was gluten. I can't trust them now, not as a celiac, besides, it doesn't say what the plant source is, which is probably soy, and I can't have that either. I never buy without the disclaimer saying no gluten, no wheat, no soy, etc.
I will however let friends know whom are not gluten free. Thanks. We have a outlet right here in Bohemia, just a few miles away.

I've been using Puritan's Pride vitamins for years. Thankfully I don't have to go gluten free. And with the economy, anytime I can save twenty bucks on my vitamins and Methyl B-12 to boot, well, I'll go for it. I think the Methyl B-12 is starting to help Alan. Today he didn't have as much neuropathy pain, but then again, we are having a mini-hurricane in NYC. And any time there is a hard hard rain, he goes "Ah, my feet feel good". He slept 9 straight hours from when he went to bed. So we cross our fingers, eat right, and take vitamins and minerals. And I sprout. lol Melody

Yeah, that mini-hurricane hit here too. 4" of rain, and 55-60 mph winds..after the computer and tv went down for the 3rd time, I went to bed. Thankfully, we never did lose power completely, only for minute or so at a time. Enough for Cablevision to aggravate me!
I wish gluten wasn't an issue for me, if not, then probably I wouldn't have any of these other issues either. I used to take Puritan Pride's liquid B12 until I found out cyna wasn't the right type, then I switched to Jarrow. I was very aggravated when they lied about the gluten in their Woman's Mulitple vitamin, and have not been back...loved the buy one, get 2 free though.
