This company produces 2 B12 products: B12 5000 liquid, and another that just says B12. Can we assume that in THIS CASE, "5000" means that the potency is 5,000 micro-grams (5mg) ?

Hello Northwoods Nut...Your assumption is absolutely correct. B12 5000 is 5,000 micro-grams or 5MG. The less expensive product, B12 is 1,000 micro-grams or 1MG. I just called Pure Encapsulations and verified that information with them. I opted for the B12 5000 at my doctors recommendation because my B12 levels were painfully low. All the best to you!

I looked at it and I'm going to say no. Based on the differences in the price. Both 1oz but bug difference so I'm going to assume the other is not nearly as strong. I hope I'm looking at this the way you are.

You are correct. One is 5000 as stated and the other is 1000. The 5000 has a stronger taste.

Yes Pure Encapsulations B12 5000 is 5,000 mcg per 1 dropper full and the one labeled just B12 is 1000 mcg per dropper full.

They're the same thing. And don't use cyanocobalamin, since that's cyanide, and altho it's in small doses, it's still toxic, whereas the methyl variety isn't. Sad, but so many supplements which include B12 use the cyano variety. Avoid these.

Get this one instead. Superior Source No Shot B12/B-6/folic Acid, 10,000 mcg/1200 mcg, 60 caps.This contains 10MG of B12 plus the folic acid 1.2mg. I can care less about this last but the B12 it is essential to have it. The company Source naturals are good quality products but the one you are thinking of buying is too low in B12. The superior source has the bottle with 60 units and 10MG each capsule.Just take one capsule with breakfast, you'll feel the difference.

First of all it contains 500 mcg of B12 as Methylcobalamin as opposed to the B12 from Cyanocobalamin which may be important to you. The other ingredients listed are Purified water, vegetable glycerine, and Potassium Sorbate. (preservative) I really like this product. Very mild flavor and easy to use, no measuring or droppers etc.

Tim, you may have to look elsewhere online for that info. I will say though, as a vitamin expert this is one of the finest mineral products I have ever used. Still using it. What makes it different is NOT the label, its the QUALITY which imho is superior to other brands.

If a serving size is 2 capsules, then the amount listed is for the serving size of 2 capsules taken together. That means one capsule contains half the amounts listed on the label. Seems like there's misleading information from the company, as the front label says "1300 mg each" so I can understand the confusion people will have.

Hi Anthony,I have your answer quoted word for word from the company that sells Sonne's #7. We are looking into putting a label on our product. The lead in our product is naturally occurring. This is the amount of lead per serving (1 TBls) 0.0007 mcg. As you can see it is a very small amount.

I do believe the box reads as follows: 1000 meg of Vitamin B12, and 200 meg of Selenium. If one needs further information, one may google the actual product, via the brand name, which will bring forth more detailed results regarding this particular brand and product.

Hi, This Vit. B complex lists each B Vitamin that's on the bottle along with amt per serving and % of daily value, however the contents of the capsules are a RAW Organc Fruit and Vegetable Blend. There is no mention of on the label, of B12 being in the form of cyanocobalamin. So that's all I can tell you. What should I know about this compound or substance?

The bottle ingredients does not say what form of B12 is in this product. So sorry

The label says 1000 mcg which means micrograms, with 180 capsules per bottle. I like to twist open the veggiecaps and add the powder to my fresh organic juices every morning. I've been taking usually one per day for the last few years and feel they help my clarity and stamina and stress-resistance. There is a very good book for those wanting to learn more: COULD IT BE B12? Makes a strong case most of us are likely sub-optimal if not downright deficient in B12. That relates partly to soil demineralization; see John Hamaker and my books THE SURVIVAL OF CIVILIZATION, TO LOVE AND REGENERATE THE EARTH, and REGENERATE THE EARTH! for in-depth understanding of the soil-health-Earth-climate-etc. connection... :Don Weaver

B-12 and B06 and folate - that is what the label says. I don't know much past that, but I would suggest that you go to Megafood's website to see the details. I love this B-12, btw.

Contains: Cobalamin 1000mcg-this is not the more absorbable Methylcobalamin which is active coenzyme form of B-12. Other ingredients: Mannitol-insignificant amount of sugar alcohol, Vegetable magnesium stearate, Vegetable stearic acid, Vegetable cellulose, Natural cherry flavor w/other natural flavors. When I need the detailed ingredients or doses, I go straight to Vitacost.com and see if they have it and if they carry it, you can get the detailed information under that item. I normally order the Methylcobalamin B-12 so I made a mistake in ordering these and never got around to returning it. I think when I did the review on this item, I reviewed it thinking it was the Methylcobalamin. Good luck!

I have been a vegan since 1999. I bought this in April of this year. It is now November and I just had bloodwork done at my annual physical. My B12 level is VERY HIGH: 1468 pg/ml. The normal range is listed as 211-911 in the lab results. So I would say, this is effective!
