> 3 dayTried this brand a couple of years back. Implemented this brand again since I’ve embarked on a whole food plant based diet. This was much cheaper than the whole food products as well as more quantity. Will update for quality or other issues. But I liked this product when I did take it a couple years back.

> 3 dayI started taking B-12 shortly after going vegan 6 months ago. I don’t think I’ve ever been B-12 deficient and likely havent been vegan long enough to tell. I don’t feel any different after taking these so I can’t vouch for their absorbency. But I know that as a vegan, it is a supplement I need to take. I first bought these in the tropical flavor which I liked a lot. When I ran out, I purchased the lemon ones because they are more economical but much much much prefer the tropical flavor. When this one runs out, I’ll repurchase tropical.

> 3 dayI purchased this to correct a b12 deficiency due to a strict vegetarian diet. I was suffering from fatigue, depression, sore tongue, fragile gums, cracked lips, and pounds that wouldnt drop. Within one dose I felt an instant mood boost and energy jolt. After taking it daily for over a month, all of my symptoms are resolved. Im energetic and smiling again. My anxiety has seen a modest reduction. And Im losing a pound a week with little effort. If I miss a dose, I can tell. Obviously I had an acute deficiency so the average person shouldnt expect results as dramatic as mine. But its clearly effective at its purpose, and also tastes good. Tip: dont chew it, just push it as far back undo your tongue as possible and let it dissolve slowly.

Greater than one weekIt may be placebo, but I really do feel a difference with these. I have noticed that my pee doesnt turn a neon yellow which makes me feel like the vitamin B is actually being absorbed, but that could be faulty logic (maybe its the niacin in other brands that does that.) I put the lozenge under my tongue and it takes about 50 minutes to dissolve. It leaves behind an odd mush, which isnt the most pleasant thing in the world, but its not horrendous. Id like to see the lozenge be a bit more dissolve friendly, but for price paid and results, or lack there of (ie no violent diarrhea, stomach aches) I will call it a good bargain.

> 3 dayAwesome. I spent my entire life battling social anxiety disorder. I hate all the meds on the market and especially their side effects. After taking a product called True Calm by now foods; I realized my anxiety disorder was caused by my b-6 and b-12 deficiencies. It sucks to have suffered all these years; spent all that money on doctors, shrinks and meds; only to learn all I needed was some very cheap B-vitamins. At 38 I finally have a normal life. Shame on the medical community; they always knew this but they cant patent vitamins and make money off them so they dont tell you how helpful they are. They make money by keeping us sick. Back on topic, be careful not to get the B-12 vitamins that contain cyanide(cyanocobalamin).

> 3 dayMy husband takes these everyday with a few other vitamins. We chose this particular brand because of the type of B12 listed in the ingredients and the various levels of B12 we could order and choose from as our needs may vary. It works for my husband very well and he says he can feel the difference if he does not take one. He chews it normally to take it. I have tried taking them and do not feel a noticeable difference, even when I take it daily with consistency. We will continue to order it since it makes a difference for my husband and is a good price.

> 3 dayI was having issues with tingling, numbness, cramping and pain in feet and calves (I think technical term is peripheral neuropathy). My dr tested Vitb12 levels and found that they were low at 347 (ideal number is between 400-1,100) and recommended I take sublingual methyl b12 1,000mcg. Ive noticed quite an improvement in symptoms after just a few months of daily supplementation. Symptoms arent 100% gone but really have improved so much. I highly recommend Jarrows b12. update 5/14/2015 After taking one a day sublingually for 4+ months, my follow up lab results show that my B12 levels are now at 658. 1,000 mcg is the perfect dosage for me and my dr. is happy with these newest lab results

> 3 dayI follow a vegan diet and try to take a B12 supplement a few times a week. Ive been using these lemon B12 chewable tablets off and on for about 12 years, and they are by far my favorite. Ive tried other brands of B12 chwables, lozenges, and liquid drops when I find one on sale for a good price, but I havent found one that I like the flavor of as much as the Jarrow lemon.
