Vitamin B12 Adenosylcobalamin
Adenosylcobalamin (also known as cobamamide or dibencozide ) is one of the two active forms of vitamin B12. Along with adenosylcobalamin the other form of B12 actively present in the human body is methylcobalamin.
This important diatary component plays a critical role in the following biological functions;
- Cellular metabolism
- DNA synthesis
- Energy & blood production
- Fatty acid synthesis
- Healthy brain & nervous system functioning
Adenosylcobalamin occurs naturally in animal derived food types such as fish, meat, eggs, and milk.
A deficiency of adenosylcobalamin can cause a variety of disorders in humans including:
- Pernicious anemia
- Infections
- Fatigue
- Depression
Vegans & vegetarians (who also avoid dairy & eggs) frequently become deficient, though the process often takes many years. People with malabsorption conditions, including those with tapeworm infestation and those with bacterial overgrowth in the intestines, often suffer from vitamin B12 deficiency.
