Methylcobalamin (B-12) plays an active important role:
Cobalamin deficiency can cause megaloblastic anemia, peripheral neuropathy, irritability, dementia, depression, psychosis, increased risk of myocardial infarction, and the occurrence of a stroke.
According to international literature, methylcobalamin has metabolic benefits and potential therapeutic applications not offered by other forms of vitamin B-12. Although cyanocobalamin is the most common form of vitamin B-12 in dietary supplements, it must be converted to methylcobalamin or adenosylcobalamin.
Nutritional deficiencies, enzyme defects, and tissue abnormalities can reduce the body's ability to synthesize these active forms. Methylcobalamin participates in the synthesis of methionine from homocysteine. This contributes to lowering homocysteine levels, which is recognized as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. It is also important for the formation of the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin.
