B12

I questioned my friend on types of B12 supplements. Note that Rainbow Light Children's contain the form cyanocobalamin which is not good.

I am currently testing the Mercola children's multivitamin on my kids. They don't like to chew it dry, but they will chew it while chasing with juice or crushed and mixed into applesauce.


Thanks to Heather for the following:

good: hydroxocobalamin, adenosylcobalamin, methylcobalamin.  I say "good" because oral B12 is not well absorbed.

bad: cyanocobalamin.  detoxing the cyanide negates the benefit of the B12 (and then some) and studies show it's not well retained anyhow.

best: methylcobalamin shots in the butt.  I've tried it all and these are the best.
