Overview
This capsule provides 500 mcg of vitamin B12 in the methylcobalamin form, packaged 240 to a bottle at about $13.95, which works out to a low cost per capsule for anyone taking it regularly. The label marks it vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO, and the maker positions it under general wellness support.
Its review base is still small, with an 11-review count, though the 4.4-star average that has come in so far is solid. Recent sales sit at roughly 100 units bought in the past month, a modest figure next to the higher-volume B12 products in this category.
The large 240-count bottle is the main draw here. For someone who has already settled on a plain 500 mcg B12 capsule as their preference, this offers a long supply without the added ingredients or flavoring found in some other options on this list.
