Vatamin B12
belongs to group of B vitamins. The active form of this water-soluble
vitamin is not found in vegetable sources. Researchers have found
the form in sea vegetables and tofu to be virtually unusable by
the body. Only animal-derived foods contain viable amounts of
B-12. For this reason, many nutritionists advise strict vegetarians
to take a B-12 supplement.

Vatamin B12
supplementation (injections especially) is quite popular with
bodybuilders who believe it helps boost energy levels, protect
the liver, and increase appetite.
Vitamins are "organic" compounds, which means they are
produced naturally in both vegetables and animals and are therefore
found in abundant quantities in both of these food sources. The
main function of vitamins in the system is to act as "coenzymes"
(i.e., substances that enhance the action of proteins which induce
chemical reactions). Enzymes are catalysts in all chemical reactions
that take place in the body. These reactions include energy metabolism
and muscle building, to name only two of thousands. As coenzymes,
vitamins are an essential component of enzymatic activity - without
vitamins, enzymes simply wouldn't work; you wouldn't build muscle,
and your body wouldn't be able to convert the food you eat into
all the magnificent chemicals that make up the human body.
Vitamins are either fat-soluble or water-soluble; depending on
whether fat or water based molecules transport the vitamin through
the bloodstream. Fat-soluble vitamins include A, D, E, and K.
Because these vitamins have an affinity for fat, they can be stored
in both adipose (fat) tissue and in the liver, extending their
functional life span in the body and strongly decreasing the chance
of developing deficiencies. The water-soluble vitamins include
all of the B vitamins and Vitamin C; they aren't stored in the
body for more than a few hours, so daily intake is a must.
