Not all forms of vitamin B12 show the same level of efficacy. Conventional supplements often contain only synthetic forms of vitamin B12, which must first be converted into biologically active forms by the body before they can be utilised. Sunday Natural Vitamin B12 MH3A® provides the full spectrum of natural and bioactive forms of vitamin B12.
Conventional vitamin B12 supplements usually contain only one active ingredient. However, several active forms of B12 occur in our bodies and in natural foods. All forms exhibit different effects and are metabolised in part via different pathways, resulting in absorption rates unique to every individual.
Although standard practice to supply vitamin B12 in an isolated, synthetic context, our pioneering MH3A® formula offers the vitamin in the same way as it occurs in food: as a mixture of all three natural and bioactive forms, which allows the natural synergistic effects between them to occur (they each fulfil completely different tasks in the body and have different focal points of action). Our MH3A® formula contains these three forms of vitamin B12 in an equal ratio, spread across a total of five active forms of B12. This formula thus provides a foundational supply of vitamin B12 as found in nature, where all three forms are always found in a harmonious combination, both in our bodies and in the foods we eat. In contrast, the majority of products available on the market contain only one of the three B12 active ingredients: either methylcobalamin, hydroxocobalamin or adenosylcobalamin.
The advantage of lozenges is their ability to be directly absorbed through the mucous membrane of the mouth by means of passive diffusion. The citamins can then enter the bloodstream directly, without first passing through the liver—as would be the case with intestinal absorption. As a result, any potential digestive difficulties in the gut can be completely avoided, significantly increasing bioavailability.
Our high-quality lozenges are based on non-GMO guar gum, allowing us to completely omit the controversial yet common additives in conventional lozenges, including magnesium stearate, sweeteners, colourings and animal products such as gelatine.
