Vitamin B12 - 60 Servings
Thorne's Vitamin B12 comes in methylcobalamin form—the active version your body can use immediately—so you skip the conversion step and get more efficient support for energy, sleep quality, and cardiovascular function. For active people pushing their limits, optimized B12 status means better recovery, sharper mental clarity, and sustained performance at every level.
Thorne Vitamin B12 provides methylcobalamin, the biologically active form of B12 the body can use directly—unlike cyanocobalamin, which requires conversion by the liver. Each bottle offers 60 servings formulated to support nerve function, healthy homocysteine metabolism, blood cell formation, and normal circadian rhythms.
Many vitamin B12 supplements contain cyanocobalamin as the active ingredient, which the liver must first "detoxify" and modify to form methylcobalamin – an active form of vitamin B12 that is essential for processes involved in cardiac function, sleep, blood cell formation, and nerve function.* Thorne's Vitamin B12, as Methylcobalamin, provides vitamin B12 in its already biologically active and tissue-ready form.* Clinical evidence indicates that the body uses methylcobalamin more efficiently than cyanocobalamin.* Methylcoblamin helps maintain normal circadian rhythms to promote normal sleep and supports healthy methylation processes in the body.*
Methylcobalamin is essential for the body to recycle homocysteine and to form the internal methyl donors involved in cardiovascular function, sleep, blood cell formation, and nerve function.* Most vitamin B12 supplements contain cyanocobalamin; however, the liver must first "detoxify" the cyanide molecule in cyanocobalamin and then attach a methyl group to form methylcobalamin.
Although research shows the quantity of cobalamin detected following an oral dose of methylcobalamin is similar to the amount following administration of cyanocobalamin, significantly more cobalamin accumulates in liver tissue following administration of methylcobalamin. And the urinary excretion of methylcobalamin is about one-third that of a similar dose of cyanocobalamin, indicating substantially greater tissue retention of the former.*

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes methylcobalamin different from cyanocobalamin in a B12 supplement?
Methylcobalamin is already in the biologically active form the body uses, while cyanocobalamin requires the liver to detoxify and convert it first. Clinical evidence suggests the body utilizes methylcobalamin more efficiently.
Who might consider adding Thorne Vitamin B12 to their routine?
Those looking to support nerve function, healthy sleep patterns, blood cell formation, and cardiovascular wellness as part of a balanced supplement regimen may find methylcobalamin B12 a relevant addition.
How many servings are included in one bottle of Thorne Vitamin B12?
Each bottle contains 60 servings, providing a consistent two-month supply when used as directed on the product label.
