The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other home health monitors: bathroom scales, blood pressure monitors, pregnancy and ovulation tests, thermometers, body composition monitors, stethoscopes, glucose monitors and pulse oximeters we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
['This NOW Foods lozenge delivers 2,000 mcg of vitamin B-12 per serving, marketed around energy production and nervous system health claims. It comes in a 100-count package and carries kosher, vegan, and vegetarian label claims, positioning it for buyers with those dietary preferences.', 'The 2,000 mcg dose is a middle-ground potency, higher than the common 500 to 1,000 mcg options but below the 5,000 mcg lozenges also sold in this lineup. The 100-count size gives roughly three months of daily use, a reasonable middle ground between smaller 60-count bottles and the largest 250-count options.', "Review activity here is more modest than some other NOW Foods B12 products, with about 1,500 ratings averaging 4.6 stars. That is still a solidly positive rating, though buyers weighing this against the brand's more heavily reviewed lozenges may want to factor in the smaller sample size."]

Performance notes
The 2,000 mcg dose is the notable detail, sitting between the standard 1,000 mcg lozenges and the high-potency 5,000 mcg options elsewhere in the NOW Foods lineup. The 100-count size and kosher, vegan, vegetarian claims round out a product aimed at buyers who have a specific dose preference in mind.
What buyers say
