Bariatric Advantage Sublingual Vitamin B12 - (90 Count)
90 Tablets Per Bottle

Flavor: Cherry.

Absorption of vitamin B12 is a complex process that relies heavily on a healthy, intact gastrointestinal system. Contact time in the stomach and upper region of the small intestines is particularly important, thus individuals who have undergone bariatric surgical procedures may be particularly prone to deficiency. Deficiency of B12 can lead to conditions such as anemia, nervous system dysfunction, and cardiovascular disease.

Sublingual (under-the-tongue) supplementation of B12 has been shown to provide good protection against B12 deficiency, and can be an excellent alternative to or addition to periodic injections.

5 out of 5 stars Does the job for me!
by eyetek87 from Sunny South Florida on 3/28/2010
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
I have never had any problems with my B12 levels since using this product. It bothered me somewhat at first putting a tablet under my tongue but I am so used to it now that it is not a problem. I like the flavor too.

5 out of 5 stars Slow Dissolve is Important Advantage
by Phillip G from Clayton, NC on 8/23/2009
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
Reenie from FL suggested a faster dissolving tablet would really be a plus. Here's the reason a "slow dissolve" is better: Once swallowed, the absorption of vitamin B12 is highly dependant on the stomach – requiring specialized proteins such as Intrinsic Factor for absorption. Sublingual preparations, which are absorbed in the mucosa of the mouth, have been shown to be effective in the prevention and treatment of B12 deficiency. Many sublingual vitamin products dissolve rapidly in the mouth allowing most of the vitamin to be swallowed. This is not optimal in individuals with malabsorption where the goal is to assure absorption in the mucosa of the mouth. The Bariatric Advantage formula is designed to dissolve over several minutes, allowing for optimal absorption. For greatest comfort, it is suggested that the tablet be placed between cheek and gum rather than under the tongue.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing product!!
by BuddingRose from Rancho Cucamonga, CA on 8/11/2009
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
This is the best sublingual B12 available!! I've tried the quicker-dissolving pills from Trader Joes, but they make me *cringe* (horrible taste) and turn my mouth pink. I'm 6 years post-op, and will continue to use these as long as they're available!!

5 out of 5 stars Quicker dissolving formula would be helpful.
by Reenie from Hallandale Florida on 5/24/2009
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
I am almost 8 years post-op and have found this particular B-12 suppliment to be the best. It is portable, affordable, non-messy like the sprays, and it tastes just fine. The only objection is that it takes about 8-10 minutes (I have timed it) to dissolve. Overall, a great product that I will continue to purchase.

5 out of 5 stars Better for me than shots
by Julie from Superior, WI on 10/31/2008
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
This seems to work better for me instead of the monthly shots. I don't get as tired and seem to have more energy taking the B12 daily. The cherry taste is awesome. I only wish they dissolved faster than they do.
