Description & Common Use:
Methylcobalamin, an active coenzyme form of vitamin B12, is essential for cell growth and replication. It is more concentrated than other forms of B12 in the cerebral spinal fluid, where it can be used by the central nervous system. It donates methyl groups to the myelin sheath that insulates certain nerve fibres. It may also play a role in a healthy sleep-wake cycle as well as normal nerve function. A deficiency in vitamin B12 may result in pernicious anaemia, nervous system disorders, e.g. multiple sclerosis, insomnia, depression, loss or reduced cognitive function, tinnitus, fatigue, asthma and cardiovascular disease.

Agents that can deplete the levels or impair the absorption of Vitamin B12 include alcohol, stress, antacids, contraceptives, antibiotics, etc.
