Terranova Vitamin B12 500ug vegetarian capsules are suitable for both Vegans and Vegetarians and are enriched with nutrients (Magnifood) including stabilised rice bran and plant sources such as parsley leaf and dandelion leaf. It can be used for:
__Mild deficiency (up to 1000mcg daily)__
Vegans, the elderly and those receiving B12 in injections sometimes like to ‘top-up’ on a daily basis to
prevent gradual decline in B12 levels. A wide variety of drugs decrease B12 levels.
__Pernicious anaemia (1000-2000mcg daily)__
Contrary to common opinion, pernicious anaemia can be successfully treated with oral B12, so long as the
dose is adequate.
__Depression in the elderly (1000-2000mcg daily)__
Significant degrees of B12 deficiency double the risk of severe depression.
B12 is primarily found in meats, and the redder the better in terms of content, followed by fish and
cheese. Alternative sources of B12 used by vegans, such as sea vegetables and tempeh, may not be the
answer they are purported to be, as the form of B12 is not the same as found in animal produce. It is not
known how well the body utilises this form, if at all. Others likely to be short of B12 are the elderly and
those on antacid medications, since neither group makes optimal amounts of stomach acid and, as a
result, the special enzyme needed for B12 absorption, called intrinsic factor.
## What Is Magnifood?
Each Terranova nutritional product is enhanced with its own synergistic complex of botanicals and phytonutrient-rich foods, called Magnifood. Magnifood ingredients are combined in a manner which enhances the body's biochemical environment in order to maximise the potential benefits of the product's vitamins, minerals and/or other nutrients. Many of the plants used in Magnifood are fresh freeze dried. Research shows that fresh freeze drying has the unique ability to retain a plant's enzymes, and is shown to be superior to other drying methods in terms of activity, stability, solubility and preservation of a plant's original fresh chemistry (as it was when the plant was harvested).
### Magnifood Advantages:
- Enhancing absorption, bioavailability, utilisation, activity, stability, function and effect of the product's nutrients.
- Providing synergistic enzymes and co-factors crucial to the utilisation and functions of the product's nutrients.
- Providing a vast array of phytonutrients that enhance the potential functions and/or applications of the product.
- Providing ingredients which enhance the overall content of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients in the product.
- Protecting ingredients from oxidative damage, helping to support the stability and activity of the product's nutrients.
