We explored the potential effects of vitamin B12 on cold sensitivity in a study using rats with induced neuropathic pain. The focus was to see whether vitamin B12, both alone and in combination with the pain reliever diclofenac, could alleviate cold and mechanical allodynia—a condition where non-painful stimuli are perceived as painful.
In our approach, we administered vitamin B12 in varying doses over ten consecutive days following nerve injury. What we discovered was quite telling. Higher doses of vitamin B12 (50, 100, and 200 µg kg(-1)) led to a reduction in cold sensitivity. However, when using a lower, subanalgesic dose (25 µg kg(-1)), vitamin B12 did not significantly impact pain responses when paired with low doses of diclofenac.
As we adjusted the vitamin B12 dosage to a more effective level (100 µg kg(-1)), we noticed an improvement in pain relief compared to diclofenac alone. These findings suggest that vitamin B12 could have a positive effect on alleviating cold-related pain in neuropathic conditions, especially when used at appropriate doses.

In our exploration of neuropathic pain relief, we found that Vitamin B12 has a notable impact on cold sensitivity in rats with nerve injuries. The study involved male Wistar rats that underwent infraorbital nerve constriction, simulating a model of trigeminal neuropathic pain.
We treated these rats with B vitamins, particularly focusing on Vitamin B12, to assess its effectiveness in alleviating cold hyperalgesia, which is an increased sensitivity to cold. The results showed that Vitamin B12, when given at a lower dose alongside carbamazepine, helped reduce cold pain sensitivity at certain time points.
However, the combination treatment limited our ability to fully understand the isolated effect of Vitamin B12. Still, it suggests that including B12 in pain management may offer additional benefits for those suffering from this type of nerve pain.

Quick improvement
After surgery for neck stenosis, my hands and feet became numb and easily turned cold. However, after taking two tablets of Vitamin B12 1000mc daily, my condition began to improve within two to three days. I want to continue taking this.

Yes! I've been drinking it for a year. I do not suffer from colds, and I feel vigorous and active; my overall condition has improved.

Effective relief
I had rectal cancer and underwent chemotherapy five times. The side effects exhausted me; my hands peeled, I felt numb, the air was cold, and my throat was sore. I nibbled on this to ease the numbness in my hands, which noticeably subsided each time. It tasted lovely, encouraging me to eat more. I've stopped chemotherapy post-surgery, but I'm still losing strength, so I plan to continue taking it.

Problem resolved
Excellent! This product, methylcobalamin, is beneficial for the nerves. I had cold extremities, but after staying consistent with it, the issue disappeared. It is not a medical recommendation.

Highly beneficial
This methylcobalamin is truly excellent! The quality is exceptional, with pure ingredients and no unnecessary additives. The lozenges dissolve conveniently, and I felt the effects after a couple of days. My energy returned, fatigue dissipated, and my mood stabilised. My immunity strengthened, resulting in fewer colds. Vitamin B12 is particularly important for nervous system health and energy as we age, and this option is the best. I highly recommend it to everyone!
