Metformin blocks my intestines from absorbing vitamin B12, so I chose a B12 tablet that melts under the tongue and goes directly into the bloodstream.

Metformin, the medication that approximately 1.2 million people in UK take every morning, blocks the absorption of vitamin B12 in the intestine.

Not "sometimes a little". Structurally.

Your body has one place where B12 is absorbed: a part of the small intestine called the ileum. There, tiny receptors grab B12 from your food and send it into your blood.

Research from Diabetes Care (Bertelsen, 2000) showed that metformin sabotages precisely those receptors. The door to your blood is locked.

In 2022, the British Medicines Agency officially changed the package insert for metformin. B12 deficiency was changed from "rare" to "common". Up to 1 in 10 users develop it.

A British study across three hospitals found that after 4 years on metformin, B12 levels drop by 19% (Dahlgaard, UfL, 2010). And for every year on metformin, your risk of deficiency increases by 13% (Astrup, JCEM, 2016).

But here's what I really couldn't believe: the British guideline for general practice (DSAM standard) literally states that general practitioners do not need to test for B12 deficiency in metformin users.

UK recommends it every 2 to 3 years. UK: never.

"Diabetes" was never the culprit. It was my medication. And the system that was supposed to protect me turned the other way...

Why everything I tried before that didn't work for a single day

In the next 60 seconds, I'll explain exactly how I went from being a woman who could no longer walk up the stairs without a handrail to a woman who was thinking clearly and standing on her own two feet again, in a single day — without injections, without a new pill, and without arguing with the doctor.

Why everything I tried before that didn't work for a single day

When I finally knew this, I thought: easy, I'll just buy MetaB12. It wasn't that simple.

The B12 capsules from the pharmacy. That's the first thing everyone tries — a jar from Matas, the pharmacy or an online store for a few kroner. And that's exactly what I wanted to get my hands on. But think about what happens next: you swallow that capsule. It travels down your esophagus to your stomach and from there to the same blocked ileum receptors that your metformin has kept locked for years. The B12 knocks on the same closed door — and pretty much slips out of your body unused. It doesn't matter if there's 100, 500 or 1,000 mcg in that capsule. The route is broken. It simply isn't absorbed.

The B12 injections at the doctor. They actually work — but in UK you only get them after an official diagnosis, and the DSAM standard states that GPs are not obliged to test. Catch-22. And even if you get them, you're exhausted again after 6 weeks because the effect has worn off. You're hooked on the needle, month after month.

The multivitamins from Matas. Same story. They take the same broken route. And nine out of ten multivitamins from the pharmacy contain cyanocobalamin — the cheap synthetic form that your liver still has to convert before your body can even benefit from it. Double loss: wrong form, wrong path.

None of these three solves the real problem. Because as long as the B12 travels through the blocked route, it doesn't matter how much you swallow.

It's about the journey. Not about the dose.

And that was the moment I understood why my sister-in-law was so stubborn about the one tablet under her tongue...

The breakthrough: one dissolvable tablet under the tongue that bypasses my intestines and goes directly into the bloodstream.

Just imagine if there was a way to get your B12 back to injection levels.

without needles, without appointments and discussions with the doctor about whether it's "really necessary" — and without having to go through the same blocked intestine that your metformin has kept closed.

That method exists. It's called a soluble tablet.

You place it under your tongue. You don't swallow, you don't chew. It dissolves in 60 seconds, and the B12 goes directly into your bloodstream through the thousands of capillaries under your tongue.

No stomach upset. No intestines involved. No ileum receptors needed — the very part of the intestine that metformin has shut down.

The soluble tablet worked better than the injection.

But not all B12 products are created equal. I learned this the hard way. The dose matters. The route matters. Most pills from Matas and the pharmacy use cheap cyanocobalamin — which your liver still has to convert — in doses that your body barely absorbs.

And that brought me to what my sister-in-law put on the kitchen table: MetaB12 — the only B12 soluble tablet specifically designed for metformin users. One tablet, 1,000 mcg methylcobalamin, cherry flavor, 60 seconds under the tongue. Doesn't touch your stomach. Doesn't touch your intestines.

Compare it like this: metformin puts a lock on your front door. A regular B12 pill keeps knocking. MetaB12 goes around the house and comes in through the side door.

94% notice a difference from the first tablet. I did too. Within an hour, the fog in my head was gone, as if someone had opened a window. My afternoon dive didn't happen that afternoon. I slept through the night. The next morning I just got up — without the heavy fatigue.

My husband said that evening: "Birgitte, your eyes look different."

And it was true.

Why MetaB12 is 1+1 FREE today only

They do not sell MetaB12 at Matas, the pharmacy or in online stores. Only directly through their own website. That way they keep the price low and the quality high.

There's a Facebook-exclusive 1+1 FREE running today and expiring at 11:59 PM tonight.

Plus, you get a 90-day money-back guarantee: you try it for 90 days, and if you don't notice any difference in your energy, clarity, or tingle, you send back the empty jars and get all your money back. No questions asked, no hassle.

Just imagine: waking up tomorrow morning without that heavy feeling and having the energy to play with the grandchildren the same day.

Just imagine: an hour's walk without having to sit down along the way, and hands that simply don't tingle at night.

More than 60,000 people in UK have already gone ahead of you. Stock is limited and the discount disappears tonight.

You are now at a crossroads.

Path 1: Do nothing. You continue to take metformin every morning without doing anything about the B12 it is secretly taking from you. The tingling gets worse.

The fatigue gets worse. And as researchers warn: the longer you wait, the harder it is to repair nerve damage. In a year, you'll be sitting in the same chair with the same "it must be diabetes" from your doctor and a body that's worn down another year.

Way 2: Try it today. One small dissolvable tablet, once a day, under the tongue.

Risk-free, because you get 90 days to try it and your money back if it doesn't work. You'll join the 60,000+ people who have already regained their energy, clarity and confidence, often in just one day. You'll be the grandma, dad or partner who's simply themselves again.

The choice is yours. But today's discount really does end at midnight.
