Vitamin B-12 (cyanocobalamin) is a water-soluble vitamin that is necessary for maintaining a healthy nervous system as well as for the production of energy from fats and proteins.* It is also essential for DNA synthesis during cell division and therefore plays a particularly important role in rapidly proliferating cells, such as blood cells.* Additionally, sufficient intake of vitamin B-12, along with folic acid and vitamin B-6, is crucial for the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, which supports a healthy cardiovascular system.* B-12 is stored in the liver, but dietary sources come only from animal products (meat and dairy products).

Another study noted that B-12 plays
