Viridian High Potency Vitamin B12

Viridian High Potency Vitamin B12 is a concentrated supplement providing vitamin B12 as methylcobalamin at a high-potency dose specifically formulated to support individuals with elevated B12 requirements or those seeking to rapidly correct vitamin B12 deficiency. Methylcobalamin is the naturally occurring, biologically active form of vitamin B12 that is directly utilised by the body's cells without requiring any metabolic conversion, making it the preferred form for maximum efficacy and cellular bioavailability.

Vitamin B12 is an essential vitamin with crucial roles in numerous physiological functions: it is required for normal red blood cell formation, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal homocysteine metabolism, normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal immune system function, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. B12 is uniquely concentrated in animal foods — meat, fish, dairy, and eggs — meaning that those who follow vegan or vegetarian diets are at significant risk of deficiency unless supplementing regularly.

The nervous system is particularly vulnerable to B12 deficiency, which can cause peripheral neuropathy (tingling, numbness, and weakness in extremities), cognitive impairment, memory difficulties, and in severe cases, irreversible neurological damage. The high potency of this formulation is designed to overcome limitations in B12 absorption that are common in older adults (whose gastric acid and intrinsic factor production declines with age), those taking certain medications (metformin, proton pump inhibitors), and those with malabsorption conditions such as pernicious anaemia, where intrinsic factor is absent or insufficient.

Contains 100% active ingredients, no artificial fillers, and is suitable for vegans. Produced in the UK to Viridian's ethical standards.
