My husband and I take a B Complex vitamin. It makes the B12 work better than taking single vitamins

I take 1,500 mcg of B12 per day as part of a B complex. If I could only take 1 supplement, it would be the B complex with especially high concentrations of B12.

The Best Form of B12

According to a report published in Integrative Medicine in February 2017, the natural forms of B12 (methylcobalamin, adenosylcobalamin, and hydroxycobalamin) are better choices than cyanocobalamin because they're more easily absorbed and used by the body and they tend to be safer.

So B12 is more important to PwP than B1?

[jimcaster in reply to Grumpy77]

That's apparently the opinion of the dietician mentioned in the article, which I happen to share, but I also take 1 gram of B1 per day so I don't think they are mutually exclusive.

Two people I know without PD but started to have confusion and some memory issues - their neurologist recommended B12 in 1,500mcg. One neurologist recommended taking a liquid version because pill form doesn't get absorbed well.
