The Vitamin B12 Protocol is a set procedure for maximizing the efficacy of Vitamin B12 supplementation. It involves optimizing thyroid hormone production, activation of Vitamin B2, cycling of methylfolate, and recycling of Vitamin B12. For more details on how to correctly implement each step, click here.

The Vitamin B12 Protocol is designed to improve a cellular process called methylation. Because methylation is involved in regulation of genes, many (if not all) aspects of health and development are governed by this process. Vitamin B12 insufficiency is likely near the root of many of today's health crises. Neurological conditions, such as autism, chronic fatigue syndrome, and multiple sclerosis, to name a few, are especially responsive to Vitamin B12. Individual results vary, but the process is supported by the scientific literature.

Unfortunately, many neurological conditions involve the degradation of the intestinal lining, leading to poor nutrient absorption. Furthermore, the hostile environment of the digestive tract can reduce the bioavailability of many dietary supplements, including iodide, selenite, molybdate, and Vitamin B12 itself. While oral supplementation can be effective in some cases, transdermal and hypodermic delivery are almost always superior to oral supplementation. This is why Spectrum Sciences has created this product line of transdermal nutrients.

The answer to this question is going to vary from person to person. For those who are able to tolerate the doses needed to achieve the desired lab outcomes, results can be felt and witnessed in just a few weeks. These effects generally progress over the course of months and years. Because methylation and mitochondrial health affect every system of the body, effects are often very broad. Some commonly reported benefits include better digestion, increased food tolerances, sharper mental faculties, more energy, better sleep, and improved immune response.

Directions for how to correctly apply our products can be found here.

We find that If someone is ever left feeling greasy or sticky, it's
usually due to the user applying more than the recommended dosage or not spacing out the drops far enough from each other, creating a layering effect. Spacing each drop at least 2" (5cm) from each other allows the product to absorb very quickly without residue. Users have commented that they like the way the serums feel on their skin, producing an effect similar to that of a very light moisturizer.

The B12 Protocol is an individualized system based on symptom resolution and/or lab test results. Some users may need several drops of each product, while other users may only need select items from our product line. The human metabolism is a dynamic system that is influenced by individual genetics and individual environment. Therefore, the optimal number of drops of each product will likely vary as time goes on. We recommend using symptoms and lab testing to guide dosages. Click here for instructions on how to properly implement the Vitamin B12 Protocol.
