Why are Transdermal Time-Release Vit B12 Patches Superior to Oral Supplementation?
Dosage Strength: Studies have shown that it takes at least 100mg delivered orally to equal a10mg dose delivered by a transdermal time release patch. Or to put it another way, patches deliver 10 times the dosage that comparable supplements taken orally deliver!
 
 
Patch delivery bypasses the harsh conditions of the digestive system that degrades and destroys much of the original nutrient value of the supplement. Instead of having to withstand exposure to stomach acids, bile, enzymes and degradation by the liver, the active ingredients in our transdermal patches are absorbed directly into the bloodstream.
 
Instant Direct To Bloodstream Delivery: Dietary supplements delivered by patches start to enter the bloodstream as soon as the patch is applied, as compared to a 2 to 4-hour delay with supplements taken orally. The ability of the digestive tract to absorb efficiently does not impact the absorption of active ingredients delivered via the skin.
 
The time-release function of the patch optimizes the benefits of the dietary supplement formula by delivering optimized dosage levels over a 24- hour period. When an oral supplement is absorbed into the bloodstream the body often excretes a large percentage of it as the full dose, delivered at once, is considered unnaturally high by the body.
 
Convenience: What could be easier than applying a patch before bedtime and taking it off before bedtime the following day, instead of remembering to take multiple pills daily? Most oral supplements need to be taken in the mornings, some before breakfast, some after breakfast and some more than once a day. Who has the time to fit this complicated regimen into their busy daily schedule?
 
Cyanocobalamin is the most common form of B12 on the market because it is the cheapest form. It is a synthetic form that’s actually bound to a cyanide molecule (yes, cyanide, the poison!). If you have any vitamin B12 supplements, check the ingredients label to see what form of vitamin B12 they contain. If they contain cyanocobalamin, throw them out!
 
Symptoms of B-12 deficiency
 
B12 deficiency is shockingly widespread. Studies now
show that up to 40% of the population may be
clinically deficient in vitamin B12.
 
Here are some of the most common symptoms of
deficiency (do you experience any of these?):
Ø Chest pain or shortness of breath
Ø Fatigue or unexplained weakness
Ø Dizziness, trouble with balance and fainting
Ø Palpitations
Ø Confusion, memory loss or dementia
Ø Coldness, numbness or tingling in the hands and feet
Ø Slow reflexes or diminished nervous system function
Ø Pale skin or yellowing of the skin
Ø Sore mouth and tongue
Ø High Homocysteine
Ø and also: sore muscles, headaches, nausea, heartburn, abdominal bloating, urinary or fecal incontinence, erectile dysfunction, apathy,depression, irritability, paranoia, hallucinations, psychosis, changes in personality and difficulty with balance and walking, In addition, vitamin B12 deficiency can actually cause brain shrinkage, according to a University of Oxford study. Although more work needs to be done, research is already suggesting a link between vitamin B12 deficiency and Alzheimer’s.
 
Vegans and vegetarians are prone to vitamin B12 deficiency, because typical vitamin B12 sources (meats, yogurt, etc.) are simply not present in their diets. But even meat eaters can be deficient in B12 due to poor digestion. This is especially true for older people who suffer a diminished ability to absorb nutrients in their small intestine. In addition, many chronic medicines, such as diabetes drugs and even pain pills can interfere with B12 absorption, and intestinal parasites can also strongly block its absorption in the gut. Flora imbalance in the digestive tract can also impact negatively on vitamin B12 levels.
