b12 for ibs

zinfandelzinfandel Raw Newbie

I'm looking for a b12 supplement that is IBS friendly. So far, the two kinds I have tried irritate my stomach, probably because they contain some weird sugar in them. I am also vegan. Can anyone recommend a supplement (maybe a spray) that would be gentle to my stomach. I already tried sublinguals and they still irritate my stomach.

Thanks :)

    I have IBD symptoms with my lupus and take b12 injections because I get more out of it that way. I get it with a prescription from Key Pharmacy, but I'm honestly not sure if it's vegan. It might be worth a call?

  • Hi,

    I did a search and I found these for you and the bottle states that it's vegan:

    Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that is stored in the liver. It is an especially important vitamin for maintaining healthy nerve cells and it aids in the production of DNA and RNA. Cell division and blood formation does not occur without Vitamin B-12. It is of special interest to vegetarians and vegans since it is not found in any significant amounts in plant foods. Deficiency of Vitamin B-12 is a serious health issue and should not be taken lightly. Vitamin B12 deficiency is a common cause of macrocytic anemia and has been implicated in a spectrum of neuropsychiatric disorders.

    Vitamin B12 is highly beneficial in various forms but DEVA Sublingual B-12 contains only one form: Methylcobalamin .Methylcobalamin, the coenzyme form of vitamin B12 is a body-friendly version, which means that no metabolic steps are required for its ingestion and it can be used it in its normal form. Our product comes as a sublingual tablet that dissolves under the tongue so the vitamin B12 can directly penetrate the bloodstream and yield its benefits. Each sublingual tablet provides 1000 mcg (16,666% of Daily Value) to ensure adequate intake. Tablets are pleasant tasting and dissolve in a short amount of time

  • This time I typed in nano b12 supplements in the search engine and I found these. It is a b complex, but it has b12 in it and it is from a fermentation. http://www.rawguru.com/store/raw-food/living-vitamin-b-nano-plex-2-oz.html

    Doctor Mercola has one http://products.mercola.com/vitamin-b12-spray/

    Let me know if you need more and I'll do some more searching for ya!

    I love Dr. Mercola's B-12 spray, looks like hooraw gave ya the site, just had to add my 2 cents =)

    The Dr. Mercola one doesn't look like it's vegan. It's probably not even vegetarian, which is ironic because it's marketed towards vegans and vegetarians. I don't trust people who are only trying to sell things, as it seems he is.

    I'm probably going to go with: http://store.agoodvitamin.com/puvebsp1floz.html

    Thanks for all your support everyone :)

  • Good choice! I didn't find that one and I don't know how I missed it.......
