Vitamine B12(Cyanocobalamin)

Vitamine B₁₂ works as coenzyme in nuclein acid metabolism, and it also affects on protein synthesis. Cyanocobalamin is the only hydrosoluble vitamine that is consigned in liver.

Deficience of this vitamine can occur from many reasons. One of them is strict vegetarian diet, cause this vitamine is presence only in animal groceries. Anemia that is occurred at B₁₂ vitamine deficit is very often combined with folates deficit.

At sportsmen cases of B₁₂ deficit were not spotted. However, cases with megasupplementations with these doses were marked(1000 µg in one dose). It was believed that huge vitamine intake will increase capacity to chain oxygen in blood, and along with that oxygenation of muscle tissue. Increase of sport achievement is not noticed in this cases.
