Role Of Vitamin B12 in Weight Loss


One of the most important parameters for a healthy body is the Vitamin B12, which helps in cell division, formation of red blood cells & energy metabolism. Common sources of Vitamin B12 include meat, seafood, eggs & milk products. In recent times this nutrient has also become a part of case studies that focus on weight loss, for which metabolism forms a key factor. Basically, during metabolism, protein and fats are broken down by Vitamin B12 so that they could be converted to energy. Weight loss begins to occur when more and more fat & protein is broken down to form energy. But there is a limitation. VitaminB12 is a water soluble compound and the body can take only a certain amount of it. This is why people may achieve only minimal weight loss when they use Vitamin B12 alone.
