Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12. Several forms exist cyanocobalamin and methylcobalamin. It plays a role in the metabolism of several proteins and nitrogen-containing compounds and is an important enzyme of the synthesis of DNA and RNA. In absence of it anaemia can develop which is also dependent o the level of folic acid/folate too, so it is recommended to take them together. It supports the normal operation of the brain and nervous system. Its presence is particularly important in the first trimester of pregnancy.
Vitamin B9
Vitamin B9, often described as another synergic compound, is also part of the vitamin B complex group (folic acid/folate). It plays an important role in the metabolism of the amino acids and nucleic acids. It is important during the period of foetal development and for normal neural tube closure. It is also a key factor for haematogenesis in synergy with vitamin B12.
