Which form of B12 is it? The methylcobalamin or the cyanocobalamin form - which is less expensive to make but not as effective?

On the front of the bottle and on the front of the box, is says in both places that it is Vegan Methylcobalmin. Also, at the top of this page under the "About this item" the very first bullet point states, "...b12 as methylcobalmin..." So, this is the methylcobalmin form, which is said to be the best, the other type, Cyanocobalamin, is synthetic.

Yes, 100% vegan. It is made from bacteria formed from saccharomyces cerevisae. This is the best known vegetarian source of Vitamin B-12.

Is this the methylcobalamin form?

Swanson lied. No fruits/vegetables contain B-12 in any human-usable form (Except for VERY small amounts in certain types of tempeh & nori). Not even the nutritional yeast they claim sources it on the nutrition label (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The only guaranteed way to get it is from meat, fish, milk, or eggs (non-vegan)... Created in a lab directly (usually Cyanocobalamin which leaves cyanide accumulation in the body... Though it CAN be further altered with other chemicals to turn into Methylcobalamin, though then that's still not food-sourced)... Or certain bacteria which can produce Methylcobalamin as a by-product of being fed certain compounds in a controlled environment. Nutritional yeast doesn't naturally contain B-12; it's always either not present, or fortified manually, & that's USUALLY the synthetic Cyanocobalamin version, unless the company making that yeast specifies that they added Methylcobalamin instead from some other source. So either this company/seller is using pre-packaged fortified nutritional yeast from another company & mistakenly thinking the B-12 came with it naturally, thus they don't know much about their own resources... Or, they make their own nutritional yeast & are lying about the B-12's source, nature, compound, or maybe even about it being there at all. We need real answers.

Why packaged in such a large bottle, with only about 25% filled with the B-12? Seems very wasteful.

Yes I agree. I have a subscription for this and it is super wasteful. Would gladly pay more to get a full bottle.

Great quality B12 Supplement

I went to go to my PCOS Specialist a few months ago and gave me a B12 test and told me it was very low. It was around 227 when it should be around 800. So Garden of Life brand is what she recommended. I started taking it two or 3 months ago and it made a difference in my energy. I don't have as much numbness in my hands like I used to when taking this product. The product is easy to swallow. The taste is not horrible. The value for the price is worth it. Not only is it B12 by itself but it also contains probiotics that are helpful for your gut since women with pcos usually have gut issues. There is nothing artificial in this product. No fillers or preservatives. It's all natural. Garden of Life products are good quality all around.

Really boosts my energy levels daily

I've been really happy with this supplement. It gives me a noticeable energy boost and helps support my nervous system. Plus, being vegan-friendly is a big plus for me. No side effects so far, and I feel more active. Definitely recommend for anyone needing a good B12 option.

Wonderful RAW and All Natural ingredients! I love the fact this supplement doesn't contain anything in it to where you have to eat or drink prior to taking it. You will see an increase in energy after taking this supplement on a regular basis. I take mine around 10:00 a.m. every morning.
