  13. Q: Are there any medical conditions or medication that should not be used in conjunction with this supplement?
    A: We recommend contacting your health care provider to ensure the safety of taking this product while taking medications or any medical issues.



  14. Q: Is the container recyclable?
    A: The container can not be considered recyclable because there is a stainless steel spring in the pump mechanism. This is very small however because of this it does not allow the package to be recycled.

    However, if the package is going to a professional plastics recycling facility, they often have magnets that pull the tiny metal parts out after the package has been ground.



  15. Q: What type of plastic (if applicable) is the bottle made of?
    A: The bottle is made from food grade plastic.



  16. Q: Does it meet Kosher and/or Halal certifications?
    A: No it does not meet either.



  17. Q: Is there any possibility of corn being present in the product? If so, is it NON-GMO?
    A: No, there is no possibility of corn being present as the ingredients were specifically chosen to avoid corn as a source material.



  18. Q: Does it contain or is it manufactured in a facility that processes any type of: Soy, Dairy/Milk, Casein, Maple, Nuts?
    A: This is free of casein, dairy, soy, yeast, and wheat.

    The product itself is free from maple and nuts; however, the facility does manufacture products that contain maple and nuts. Please know that the machines are carefully cleaned after each batch.




  19. Q: I am lactose intolerant will this be suitable for me?
    A: Yes this is suitable for those who are lactose intolerant



  20. Q: Is it free of animal byproducts?
    A: No it does not.



  21. Q: Does it require refrigeration?
    A: No it does not require refrigeration.



  22. Q: Is it safe to take with blood thinners?
    A: We suggest that you discuss with your physician whether or not this should be taken with blood thinning medication.



  23. Q: Should this be taken with food and (or) water?
    A: It is not required.



  24. Q: Why is Methylcobalamin better than Cyanocobalamin?
    A:
    • Most of the vitamin B12 found in supplements are in the form of cyanocobalamin (cyano B12). But studies suggest that a coenzyme form of B12, called methylcobalamin (methyl B12), may be better utilized and retained in the body.

    • Methylcobalamin is the active form of vitamin B12 and evidence indicates it has some applications not shared by other forms of vitamin B12.

    • With cyanocobalamin, your body must convert it into a coenzyme form for you to benefit from it. Not so with Methylcobalamin... it's already in the active coenzyme form naturally in your body.

    • Not only does cyanocobalamin require a higher dosage for the same effectiveness, in Japan and Great Britain, cyanocobalamin has been removed from the market while methylcobalamin is available.

    • Cyanocobalamin is considered by many to be the worst choice of the 3 cobalamins used as dietary supplements: hydroxycobalamin B12, cyanocobalamin B12, and methylcobalamin B12.


  25. Q: Why is potassium sorbate used in the Vitamin B12?
    A: Liquid products require a preservative to ensure safety by preventing the growth of bacteria/mold/yeast. Potassium sorbate is the salt of sorbic acid (natural fatty acid) naturally found in blueberries and other plants. The amount of potassium sorbate in the daily dose of the B12 spray is minimal due to the very small dose volume of sprays (780ul) versus other beverage or shot formulations. We can assure you that potassium sorbate is considered safe by the Center for Science in the Public Interest.



  26. Q: Why does the B12 spray not have intrinsic factor?
    A: Intrinsic factor is only used in various B12 supplement tablets to try to better the absorption rate through the stomach lining. Our B12 product does not need to contain this due to the sublingual distribution.



  27. Q: What is the vegetable glycerin (palm) used for?
    A: As an all natural palm derived absorption enhancer, sweetener, and preservative.



  28. Q: What is the Quillaja saponaria extract and what is it used for?
    A: As an all natural and organic absorption enhancer. Published research shows that Quillaja saponaria is hypocholesterolemic, hypoglycemic, antioxidant, antiviral, antibacterial, antiprotozoal, and non-toxic in acute/chronic animal studies



  29. Q: I have another question about my order.
    A: If you have a general question about your order that is not covered above, please visit our General Product FAQ. Topics covered include returns, payment, ordering methods, shipping, status, problems with your order, password, etc.
