Sublingual B12

Anyone have a sublingual B12 they really like?

So far I've tried Twinlab Dots (tastes like wet dog) and Celebrate (tastes like laundry soap). Trying to hunt one down that doesn't taste bad.

Thanks!

  • Nature's Bounty...cherry flavor. They only have 2500mcg that I could find so I cut them in half and take them 3 times per week.

    Seeking Health is one of the few with methylfolate and methylcobalamin. Those are the only ones recommended by the heme/oncologist I have. This is not bariatric, this is the only one that my MD/PhD

  • I use vita4life’s vitamin b 12 sublingual, because it neither has any filers nor has any artificial additives. Moreover, it tastes good.

Nature Made B12 sublingual is yummy, but I don't know if it comes in lower doses than the 3000mcg I have.

I use Trader Joe's 1000mcg. It's tasteless, which is good in comparison with wet dog!

Thanks! Sounds like I might check out the Nature Made next, then go from there :). If only all these other Vitamins could be purchased in sample sizes like Protein powder...!

GNC's B-12 tastes good!

I have Nature's Bounty 5000mcg in Natural Berry flavor. It taste really good and I only have to take it once a week.

Source Naturals 1mg. I take it 2x week and my blood levels are high normal. Whatever you get, make sure it's methylcobalamin, rather than cyanocobalamin. The methyl is better absorbed and utilized, especially by our CNS.

BTW, got it on Amazon, is cherry flavored and tastes great.

This is not bariatric, this is the only one that my MD/PhD recommended and I sat for 1x for 5 weeks with his chemo patients since I had to get IV Iron. Only one was rail thin. The rest were healthy looking and dang sure weren't no 20-30 years old.

Nature's Bounty sublingual B12. My WLS dietician highly recommends these,, and they taste good. You can find them at most places right now for BOGO 1/2 off... Walgreens, Meijer, ... most pharmacies. Just have to check online.

Thank you all! There are some great suggestions here. As soon as I finish choking down what I have (hate to waste) I've got a good starting point for finding something else.

Well, I don’t think that would be a healthy choice, if you are searching for something that tastes good. Candy-like supplements contains artificial colors and flavors that are very bad for health. So I would suggest you to avoid them.

I love Vita4Life B12 sublinguals. I've been taking 1 a day for over a year now after my surgeon recommended I switch because my chewables weren't working, and they improved my labs within a few of months. I haven't had any deficiency issues since, and I swear by these sublinguals. Good luck! The link is here: http://vita4life.net/products/bariatric-vitamins-b-12-sublingual.html
