Product Description
Adenosyl/Hydroxy B12
Targeted Support for SNPs in the Methylation Pathway
Component of PureGenomics Program – Support Based on Nutrigenomics
Offers Vitamin B12 Blend for Nerve and Mitochondrial Support
This product is a unique blend of adenosyl/hydroxy B12 (adenosylcobalamin and hydroxycobalamin).
It provides unmethylated B12 to promote nerve and mitochondrial health.
People with certain genetic profiles may be better suited to take Vitamin B12 that is not methylated.
What are the Different Types of B12?
-
- Adenosylcobalamin (adenosyl B12) is an activated form of B12 (similar to methylcobalamin or methylated B12). Adenosyl B12 is the major form of vitamin B12 stored in the mitochondria of cellular tissues and also a key cofactor in carbohydrate metabolism. Optimal levels also support healthy synthesis of the myelin layer of nerve sheaths. For people with one or two SNPs in the COMT gene (+/+ or -/+), adenosylcobalamin is one of the forms of Vitamin B12 that is often suggested.
-
- Hydroxycobalamin(hydroxy B12) is a precursor form of vitamin B12. It is converted in the body to both methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin. Hydroxycobalamin is one of the form of Vitamin B12 that is often preferable for people with one or two SNPs in the COMT gene (+/+ or -/+).
-
- Cyanocobalamin (cyano B12) is similar to hyroxy B12 but with a cyanide base. The body has to detoxify the cyanide base and rid itself of it.
-
- Methylcobalamin(methyl B12) is found predominately in blood and other fluids.
The PureGenomics program may recommend one type of vitamin B12 over another (methylated or nonmethylated), depending on your unique genetic profile (SNPs).
The PureGenomics™ Program
PureGenomics is a unique platform that creates reports from raw genetic data from the 23andme at-home saliva test. PureGenomics is designed to help meet the individualized nutrition needs of patients.
The PureGenomics protocol targets key Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) that can be supported with nutrition.
