A liposomal vitamin B12 formula providing hydroxocobalamin for slower, steadier availability. Used when gentler, sustained B12 delivery is preferred over fast-acting formats.*
NuMedica Liposomal Hydroxy B12™ provides vitamin B12 in the hydroxocobalamin form, delivered in a liposomal liquid designed for gradual absorption and steady availability. Vitamin B12 supports foundational processes involved in energy metabolism, nervous system function, and routine cellular activity.
This product is intended for adults who prefer a gentler B12 option or who notice they do better with sustained delivery rather than fast-acting formats.
Vitamin B12 is available in several forms, each with distinct characteristics. Hydroxocobalamin is a naturally occurring form that the body can convert into active B12 as needed. Compared to methylcobalamin, it tends to remain in circulation longer and may have a more even effect.
This slower conversion can help support steadier B12 availability throughout the day without sharp fluctuations.
Vitamin B12 contributes to how the body converts food into usable energy and supports normal nerve signaling. These processes influence everyday experiences such as stamina, mental clarity, and neurological comfort.
When B12 delivery is too rapid for an individual's tolerance, some people notice restlessness or overstimulation. A slower-release option can support these systems while maintaining a calmer physiological response.
Vitamin B12 participates in methylation-related processes that help regulate energy production, neurotransmitter activity, and cellular maintenance. These reactions occur continuously and rely on adequate availability of B12 alongside other nutrients.
Methylation functions as a foundational regulatory system within the body, influencing how metabolic demands are managed day to day, including the roles described in methylation-related cellular regulation.
Liposomal delivery surrounds nutrients with phospholipids that resemble components of cell membranes. This structure supports absorption while allowing nutrients to enter circulation more gradually, a pattern often associated with liposomal nutrient transport.
For individuals who have difficulty maintaining B12 levels or who prefer liquid formats, liposomal delivery offers an alternative to capsules or lozenges.
Different B12 formats serve different needs. Some people prefer fast-acting, active forms, while others benefit from steadier delivery that prioritizes tolerance and consistency.

Liposomal Hydroxy B12 is a liquid vitamin B12 supplement that provides hydroxocobalamin, a form known for steadier circulation and more gradual availability compared to faster-acting B12 forms.
Hydroxocobalamin remains in circulation longer and is converted by the body into active B12 as needed. Methylcobalamin is already active and tends to act more quickly. Some individuals prefer hydroxocobalamin for its slower, steadier profile.
A slower-release option may be better tolerated by individuals who feel overstimulated with fast-acting B12 or who prefer more gradual nutrient support throughout the day.
Liposomal delivery surrounds nutrients with phospholipids similar to cell membranes. This format can support absorption while allowing nutrients to enter circulation more gradually.
Vitamin B12 contributes to how the body converts food into usable energy. Supporting consistent B12 availability can help maintain steadier energy rather than rapid fluctuations.
Some individuals who are sensitive to more immediately active B12 forms prefer hydroxocobalamin because of its gentler conversion and steadier availability.
Vitamin B12 is often used alongside other B vitamins, depending on individual needs. Some people adjust B12 separately, while others choose broader B-complex formulas.
Vitamin B12 participates in methylation-related processes that help regulate energy metabolism, neurotransmitter activity, and cellular maintenance. Adequate B12 availability supports these ongoing pathways.
Liposomal Hydroxy B12 is designed for consistent, ongoing support as part of a long-term wellness routine rather than short-term intervention.

We all know that a healthy diet and plenty of exercise are essential for staying healthy. Did you know that supplementing your diet with the right vitamins and minerals can help maintain a healthy weight? Some vitamins and minerals can even help boost our metabolism.
Many factors are involved in how efficiently a supplement gets absorbed into the body where it is intended to go. Scientific research has shown that many tablet, capsule and liquid vitamins and supplements have an average bio-availability and absorption rate of only 5-20%. Liposomes are purported to increase the bioavailability and absorption rate by up to 80% in some cases.

Nutrient absorption begins with digestion in the stomach. Our overall health is dependent upon the health of our immune system which resides primarily in our gut. Scientists are finding new ways to deliver the nutrients within a supplement to the targeted area of the body more efficiently. Nanotechnology appears to be a promising method to help you get the most out of your supplements, and possibly foods, which may help to improve your health.
Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that supports everyday functions such as energy production, nervous system health, and normal cell renewal. Because the body cannot make B12 on its own, it must come from food or, in some cases, supplementation.
B vitamins are often described as "energy vitamins," a phrase that appears on labels, articles, and everyday conversations. While this shorthand is familiar, it oversimplifies what B vitamins actually do in the body. Rather than producing energy directly, these nutrients support the metabolic processes that convert food into usable fuel, helping maintain steady function across daily demands.
