Vitamin B12 (0.2%) — from Chlorella vulgaris

With-Meal Capsule: 25–50 mg powder delivers ≈50–100 µg B12 (0.2% = 2 µg per mg). Keep the same mealtime daily.

Sachet To-Go: Pack 25–50 mg single-serve sticks for a tidy daily habit (≈50–100 µg B12).

Gummies: For ≈25–100 µg per 4 g gummy, use ≈12.5–50 mg powder (≈0.3–1.25% w/w); pilot flavour/acid balance.

Smoothie Add-In: 25–50 mg into a breakfast smoothie for ease and consistency.

Stack Idea: Pair with a simple B-complex routine; add one change at a time and track adherence.

Plant-Derived Source: Microalgal origin suits clean-label builds.

Predictable Dosing: 0.2% assay (2 µg/mg) simplifies microgram math.

Format-Friendly: Neutral taste and fine texture suit capsules, gummies, sachets and smoothies.

Balanced Stacking: Fits water-soluble vitamin systems without stimulants.

Serving Size: 1 capsule or scoop (≈ 25–50 mg powder)

Ingredients: Vitamin B12 (0.2%) Extract Powder (from Chlorella vulgaris biomass)

Does Not Contain: Added sugar, caffeine, artificial colours

Allergen Information: Vegan; gluten-free; dairy-free. Algae-derived; review if sensitive to algae.

Usage Recommendation: Take 25–50 mg once daily with meals (≈50–100 µg B12). If stacking with other actives, add one change at a time and space ~90 minutes from medications as a routine practice.

Storage Advice: Store cool, dry & dark. Keep tightly sealed away from direct sunlight.

Keep Away From Children

Q: How do I place plant-derived Vitamin B12 (0.2%) into a simple daily routine?

A: Keep it with food and keep it identical day to day. A practical starting point is 25–50 mg powder with your most reliable meal, which delivers about 50–100 µg B12 at a 0.2% assay. Hold everything else steady—sleep, hydration, meal timing, and movement—so you can actually see the effect of this one change. Maintain the same serving for two to four weeks before adjusting. If you’re building a stack later, add only one new variable at a time and track adherence, not just totals; consistency beats tinkering.

Claim-strength scale – High = multiple human studies; Moderate = a few trials; Emerging = early lab data.

Q: What’s the practical difference between algal B12 and common synthetic formats for formulation?

A: This ingredient supplies standardized B12 within a microalgal matrix from Chlorella vulgaris, which many formulators choose for clean-label positioning, neutral taste, and straightforward microgram math. Synthetic formats (e.g., cyanocobalamin or methylcobalamin) can be compact and highly pure, but they don’t offer a plant-origin story. Your choice should follow the build: capsules favour precision and small serving sizes; gummies or sachets favour ease and routine sticking. Either way, lock the serving to the same mealtime, run a two-to-four-week check-in, and avoid frequent product switches that confuse evaluation.

Q: How do I set gummy strength without overcomplicating the formula?

A: Decide the per-gummy target first—say 25, 50, or 100 µg—and work backward using the 0.2% assay (2 µg per mg). That means ≈12.5 mg powder for 25 µg, ≈25 mg for 50 µg, or ≈50 mg for 100 µg in a 4 g pectin gummy. Keep acids and flavours consistent while you pilot, disperse the powder thoroughly to avoid hot spots, and document every batch variable. Store cool and dry; heat and light can degrade actives. Run a small-scale stability check before scaling, then lock your SOP once the pilot meets taste and uniformity goals.

Q: Can I stack B12 with other B-vitamins or minerals without overcomplicating things?

A: Yes—start with one anchor habit first: 25–50 mg B12 powder with a consistent meal. After a week, add a simple B-complex or a single mineral if needed, keeping timing and portion sizes steady. Leave at least ~90 minutes from medications as a general routine practice. Track comfort, adherence, and any workflow friction (capsule vs gummy vs stick) in a simple log. Adjust gradually rather than chasing higher totals; the goal is a repeatable routine that fits real days, not perfect days, so you keep it going long enough to evaluate results.
