Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin with a complex structure containing the mineral cobalt – hence the name "cobalamin". It is the largest and most structurally complex of all vitamins.

Vitamin B12 is an essential water-soluble vitamin required for DNA synthesis, red blood cell formation, and neurological function. Its complex structure features a central cobalt ion (hence "cobalamin"). The body cannot produce it – only certain bacteria can. Therefore, humans must obtain B12 from animal-derived foods or supplements. Strict vegetarians and vegans are at particular risk of deficiency and require supplementation or fortified foods. Deficiency causes megaloblastic anemia and potentially irreversible neurological damage.
