These capsules contain vitamin b12 in a liposomal form, as methylcobalamin. Osavi uses Liposovit®-B12 for this, in which the vitamin is packaged in small fat globules. You get 100 mcg per capsule, and with 120 vegan capsules, it lasts you four months. Convenient for anyone who gets less B12 from food, for example if you eat plant-based.
Liposovit®-B12 is no different vitamin than regular B12. The difference lies in the packaging. In a liposomal formulation, the vitamin is surrounded by a layer of phospholipids, the same building blocks that your own cell walls are made of. Imagine a small ball with a soft fat layer around it. Compare it to a letter in an envelope: the contents remain the same, only the packaging differs. Osavi uses the Liposovit®-B12 raw material for this, which was specially developed for this application.
There are several forms of vitamin b12. The two best known are cyanocobalamin and methylcobalamin. This product contains methylcobalamin, a coenzyme form. Each capsule provides 100 mcg, which is 4000% of the reference intake. That sounds like a lot, but B12 is water-soluble: your body takes what it needs and excretes the rest. Vitamin B12 contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. In addition, vitamin B12 contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
What many people do not know: your body does not produce vitamin b12 itself. You are completely dependent on what you eat or supplement. Animal products such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy are the main sources, so those who eat vegan or vegetarian are more likely to run into a low intake. Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal formation of red blood cells and plays a role in the cell division process. Many people wonder exactly how much B12 they need. For daily supplementation in case of a low intake, 100 mcg is more than enough.
The rest of the composition has been deliberately kept simple. The capsule is plant-based, made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, making this product suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Precisely that group supplements B12 most often. There are no unnecessary additives and the jar is free from gluten, lactose, and soy. The difference with a standard B12 capsule lies in two things: the liposomal packaging and the choice for methylcobalamin. You only swallow one per day, which makes it easy to stick with. Vitamin B12 also contributes to normal psychological function and to the normal functioning of the immune system.
In short: liposomal vitamin b12 from Osavi as methylcobalamin, 100 mcg per vegan capsule from the Liposovit®-B12 raw material. A simple daily supplement, good for four months with one capsule per day.
This product uses the patented Liposovit®-B12 raw material. The vitamin B12 is enclosed in liposomes, small fat spheres made of phospholipids.
This product contains methylcobalamin, a coenzyme form of vitamin B12. Another commonly used form in supplements is cyanocobalamin.
With one capsule a day, this jar will last you four months. The capsules are entirely plant-based, made from hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. This makes the product suitable for vegans and vegetarians, precisely the group that most often supplements with B12.
Each capsule provides 100 mcg of methylcobalamin, which is 4000% of the reference intake. This is well above the daily requirement, but deliberately moderate compared to products with 1000 mcg or more. Pleasant for daily supplementation when dietary intake is low.

That is more than enough for daily supplementation. The reference intake is around 2.5 mcg, so with 100 mcg you are well above that. If you use it to supplement a low intake from food, for example with a plant-based diet, then this dosage is perfect. If you have doubts about your B12 intake, consult your doctor.
Yes, this product is completely vegan. The capsule is plant-based and the liposomal formulation also contains no animal ingredients. Supplementing with B12 is particularly relevant for vegans and vegetarians, as vitamin B12 is found almost exclusively in animal products.
The liposomal technique is a different way of packaging: the vitamin B12 is enclosed by phospholipids. The vitamin itself is the same. You get methylcobalamin from the Liposovit®-B12 raw material, 100 mcg per capsule.
Methylcobalamin is a coenzyme form of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism, normal red blood cell formation, and the normal functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin B12 also plays a role in the cell division process.
Both are forms of vitamin B12, but they differ in structure. Cyanocobalamin contains a cyano group and must first be converted into an active form by your body. Methylcobalamin is already such an active co-enzyme form and can be used directly. Both forms are common in supplements. Methylcobalamin is often chosen because it bypasses that conversion step.
