Is vitamine B12 wateroplosbaar?

Yes, vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is water-soluble. This means it dissolves in water and excess is excreted in urine. Unlike fat-soluble vitamins, its not stored extensively in the body, requiring regular intake through diet or supplements.

Is vitamin B12 water-soluble? Gosh, that’s a question I’ve actually wondered myself, especially since I started taking those pricey supplements! The answer, thankfully, is yes! It totally dissolves in water. Which, you know, makes sense I guess? Think about it – anything extra just pees right out. Unlike those sneaky fat-soluble vitamins, it doesn’t hang around in your fat cells for ages. Remember that time I read about that study (I think it was in Prevention magazine, or maybe it was a random article online…I can never remember!) where they were talking about how our bodies don’t really stockpile B12? Kind of scary, right? That’s why it’s so important to get it regularly, whether from food or those little pills. I mean, I’d hate to be deficient, especially because I heard that can lead to… all sorts of things. Yikes. So yeah, water-soluble and needs regular topping up – that’s my takeaway.
