Vitamin B12
also cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin, adenosylcobalamin
Essential for red blood cell production and neurological health
Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin or extrinsic factor, is a water-soluble vitamin involved in metabolism. It is one of B vitamins. It plays an essential role in the nervous system by supporting myelin synthesis. It is needed for DNA synthesis and for the maturation of red blood cells in the bone marrow. It serves also as a vital cofactor in both fatty acid and amino acid metabolism. As humans cannot make it, it is required in the diet, making it an essential nutrient. Animals require B12 but plants do not, relying instead on alternative enzymatic pathways.
