Product Summary
The NOW Methyl B-12 Lozenge provides 1,000 micrograms of B12 per serving in the form of methylcobalamin. According to NOW, methylcobalamin is the coenzyme form of B12 found to play a role in the maintenance of a healthy nervous system as well as DNA synthesis. It is recommended to take one lozenge one to two times daily either sublingually until dissolved or chewed.
There are some users who reported these lozenges taking an exceptionally long time to dissolve and, for some, leaving an unpleasant residue once dissolved. The majority of users report feeling more energized and less foggy when taking this product. While many appreciate the taste of the NOW Methyl B-12 lozenges, they do contain fructose and sucralose. This product is more affordable than some other B12 supplement options, so it may be a good choice for anyone on a budget.
