Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Comments about GNC B-12 1000:
I took this before going on duty as a police officer since 1982 and always had energy at the end of the shift.Coworkers said they never saw me yawn on midnight shift before I retired in 2001. I still use it daily and before my workouts.It helps to maintain my positive attitude because when I am not tired I am not mentally fatigued. It also helped me to keep excercising after radioctive implants due to prostate cancer 7 years ago and helps fight the side effects of extreme fatigue from radiation exposure.I recomend this product very highly.
