Top Medical Research Studies

We investigated the potential of cyanocobalamin, or Vitamin B12, as a treatment for skin inflammation using a cutting-edge transdermal delivery system. The research focused on microneedle patches that effectively deliver this antioxidant form of Vitamin B12 into the skin.

Our findings highlighted reduced inflammation and damage in skin models, indicated by decreased cytokine levels and less oxidative stress. This approach may present a new, cost-effective method to enhance skin care for patients dealing with chronic inflammatory conditions.

However, it's important to note that while the results are promising, further studies are needed for broader applications.

We explored a group of 29 patients who were referred to three allergy centers in the UK due to suspected vitamin B12 hypersensitivity (VB12H). Over the period from 2014 to 2022, these patients underwent various tests, including skin prick tests and drug provocation tests. The aim was to understand how vitamin B12 treatment relates to allergies and to develop a reliable method for assessing hypersensitivity.

Among the patients, 62% displayed immediate hypersensitivity reactions, with some experiencing severe anaphylaxis to vitamin B12 forms. Interestingly, we found that some patients who were sensitized to a specific type of vitamin B12 could tolerate another form. This indicates that not all vitamin B12 treatments may cause problems for everyone. However, confirmed cases of VB12H are considered to be quite rare.

Overall, while we identified individual cases where vitamin B12 treatment provoked allergic responses, the evidence suggests that vitamin B12 hypersensitivity is uncommon. This nuances the discussions around vitamin B12 treatment face since adverse reactions are not widespread. Our proposed evaluation protocol includes skin testing and considerations for allergies to related substances, such as polyethylene glycol.

Therefore, while there is an observable connection between vitamin B12 and allergic reactions in a small subset of individuals, the study indicates that treatment for vitamin B12 deficiency remains generally safe for most individuals.

Probiotic treatment shows effectiveness
We examined how a combined probiotic treatment affects children with food allergies. The study included 92 kids with both skin and gastrointestinal symptoms. Those who took the probiotic showed a significant drop in their allergy symptoms over 21 days, including a decrease in inflammation markers.

Specifically, children in the main group had improved skin and gut symptoms, along with notable reductions in IgE levels compared to those who didn’t receive the treatment. While symptoms increased slightly after the treatment stopped, they remained less severe than before, demonstrating the potential benefits of B12 in managing allergies.

Improved metabolism
Great! Excellent quality product with perfectly chosen ingredients. I experienced no allergies or negative reactions. The large package lasts a long time, and the average capsule size has a neutral taste. Delivery was quick and undamaged. The composition includes only healthy, natural ingredients and folic acid. I've noticed improved intestinal function and metabolism, with results seen after a week. My nervous system has also improved as I'm less anxious. I trust the effectiveness of the vitamin; just ensure to check the dosage based on your age.

Pleasant taste

My 1.6-year-old child was prescribed this by a neurologist to take before breakfast for three months. Although I expected lozenges, we received tablets that we easily divide with a sharp knife. The pleasant taste makes it enjoyable, and fortunately, there are no allergies.
