Here you can find detailed information on some of the products we've developed at North American. Many of the constituents must be understood in light of the blood type paradigm, so when and where appropriate, we'll be going over some of the basic mechanisms by which blood type has an effect on the product, and also, how the product effects each blood type. Cyanocobalamin is the most commonly supplemented form of vitamin B12, but you might be surprised to discover that this form of vitamin B12 does not actually occur in plants or animal tissues. As the name implies, cyanocobalamin contains a cyanide molecule.
Most people are familiar with cyanide as a poisonous substance.
Although the amount of cyanide in a normal B12 supplement is small and from a toxicology point, viewed as insignificant, your body will still need to remove and eliminate this compound. This removal is accomplished through your detoxification systems with substances like glutathione being very important for the elimination of the cyanide. The Coenzyme Forms of B12 Another available form of B12 that offers significant advantages over cyanocobalamin is called methylcobalamin This form of B12 is called a coenzyme form of B12 and is believed to be a much more active form of the vitamin. The adenosylcobalamin form of B12 is also occasionally called cobamamide or dibencozide. Although methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin are both considered to be active forms of B12, they do appear to offer slightly different health advantages.
