Vitamin Code™ RAW B-12™?
Although
the human body does store vitamin B12, it is the most common
nutritional deficiency in the developing world and possibly in the U.S.
(reports the August 2005 issue of the Harvard Health Letter) Essential
to protect the body against anemia and support a healthy central
nervous system*, vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin involved in the
metabolism of every cell of the body.† Helping to support
the body’s own production of energy through its role in the metabolism
of food, vitamin B12 helps maintain healthy nerve cells and red blood
cells and is also needed to make DNA, the genetic material in all cells.†
