Research
The studies below reference peer-reviewed research on the key active ingredients in this product. These are ingredient-level studies.
Vitamin B12 (as cobalamin)
-
Del Bo' et al., 2019 · Nutrients
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial; n=40; 8 weeks; vegan adults with low baseline B12 status
Vegan adults with low baseline vitamin B12 status who received high-dose B12 supplementation (1,000 mcg/day) showed statistically significant increases in serum B12 and holotranscobalamin compared to those who received placebo; the study population was specifically vegans with suboptimal baseline status, and results may not generalize to omnivores or replete individuals.
-
Hamza Ali et al., 2025 · Nutrients
Systematic review; multiple RCTs included; participants with B12 deficiency or elevated risk of deficiency
A systematic review found that participants who received oral vitamin B12 supplementation showed statistically significant improvements in serum B12 concentrations across the majority of included trials; high-dose oral supplementation was found to be effective at correcting B12 deficiency across studied populations.
Calcium (from dl-calcium phosphate)
-
Dawson-Hughes et al., 1990 · New England Journal of Medicine
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial; n=301; 2 years; postmenopausal women
Postmenopausal women who received calcium supplementation showed statistically significant reductions in bone loss at the spine and femoral neck compared to those who received placebo; effects were most pronounced in women more than six years past menopause, and results are specific to this demographic.
-
Liu et al., 2022 · Nutrients
Systematic review and meta-analysis; 43 randomized controlled trials included; various adult populations
A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials found that participants who received calcium supplementation showed statistically significant improvements in bone mineral density at multiple skeletal sites compared to those who did not; effect sizes varied by supplementation form, dose, and baseline calcium status.

How it works
Every ingredient, chosen with intention.
Here's what's in this bottle - and why each ingredient earned its place in the formula.
-
Vitamin B12 as cobalamin
A water-soluble vitamin that plays a central role in DNA synthesis, red blood cell formation, and the maintenance of the myelin sheath surrounding nerve fibers.
Why we chose itAt 1,000mcg, a high-potency dose, this formula accounts for the fact that B12 absorption from supplements is passive and concentration-dependent: only a small percentage of a given dose is absorbed at once, so a higher amount ensures a meaningful quantity reaches the bloodstream even in people with reduced stomach acid or intrinsic factor, which are common variables in B12 uptake.
-
Calcium from dicalcium phosphate
A mineral present at 103mg (10% of the daily value) in the tablet, where it is derived from dicalcium phosphate, a pharmaceutical-grade tablet base that also contributes a small but labeled amount of calcium.
Why we chose itDicalcium phosphate is used as the tablet's structural base and flow agent. Its calcium contribution is modest but real, so it is listed transparently on the label rather than omitted, consistent with Yuve's full-disclosure ingredient approach.

Questions, answered
What customers often ask.
Why supplement B12 at all on a plant-based diet?
Vitamin B12 is found almost exclusively in animal products, meat, fish, dairy, eggs. Plant-based diets without fortified foods or supplementation consistently lead to declining B12 status over time, since the body's stored B12 can mask deficiency for years. For those eating vegan or vegetarian, daily supplementation is broadly recommended.
Why is the dose 1,000mcg when the daily value is only 2.4mcg?
B12 absorption through the gut is limited by intrinsic factor, a protein the stomach secretes. At high supplemental doses, a small percentage passes through by passive diffusion, enough to maintain status. The high dose compensates for the inherent inefficiency of oral B12 absorption, not because 1,000mcg is all used.
How long until I feel a difference?
If you're genuinely deficient, B12 levels can begin improving within four to eight weeks of consistent daily supplementation. Research in vegan adults with low baseline B12 showed statistically significant increases in serum B12 after eight weeks. Neurological symptoms, if present, may resolve more gradually under medical supervision.
Should I take B12 with food?
You can take it with or without food. Many people take it with breakfast as part of a morning routine. There's no clinically meaningful timing difference for cobalamin at this dose.
Can I pair this with the Folic Acid Gummies?
Yes, B12 and folic acid work together in the same methylation pathway. Research shows folic acid's effect on homocysteine is enhanced when B12 is adequate. Taking both daily is common in plant-based nutrition routines and the two don't interact negatively.
Is it possible to take too much B12?
B12 is water-soluble, what your body doesn't use is excreted. There is no established upper tolerable intake level for B12 because excess is not retained. At 1,000mcg daily, this is a standard therapeutic dose well within the range of long-term daily use. Consult your healthcare provider if you have kidney concerns.
