Guest guest Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Thanks, Margery, for sharing what works for you -- it sounds like it really does! I picked some of the 5000 mcg up today at Super Supplements (www.supersup.com)here in Seattle, which usually is priced quite well. WHEN do you take it? I noticed a sublingual sleep aid had B12 in -- do you take one at night? Jeanne > > I've had great results with sublingual b12, but it HAS to be the highest potency: 5000 micrograms (yes, five THOUSAND). Sublingual b12s are sold in different strengths, the weaker ones are a waste of my money. I can't absorb any b12 I swallow, so tried sublinguals. My blood tests show a good rise in my b12 if I take two of the 5000's faithfully every day, sublingually. I use Twinlabs " Mega " b12 " dots " , 5000 mcg, I buy them online.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hi Jeanne, I haven't noticed any difference at all with different b12 dosing times. I tried taking them at bedtime, but I don't think they improved my sleep, so I just take them " whenever " . I always take two, (it is my understanding that excess b12 is harmless, it is just excreted in the urine, and having been so low in the past I'd rather take too much than too little). I try to take them every single day, and I try to keep them under my tongue for as long as possible, since I know I'm not absorbing any that gets dissolved and swallowed. Best of luck on your journey to improved health. > > > > I've had great results with sublingual b12, but it HAS to be the highest potency: 5000 micrograms (yes, five THOUSAND).
