sublingual b12

Does anyone have experience with this? I've done some basic research and it appears IM is the ideal route to administer, while oraly results in less than 2% absorption. I can't find any studies on SL, but some claim since it's a larger molecule it will be absorped poorly, while others claim it has aborption rates similar to IM since it bypasses the GI tract. Thanks for the feedback.

I had to have my large intestine removed and can no longer absorb B12. Ive tried both the spray and tablets but my doctor tells me I should only get the shots that everything else is a waist.
Sublingual you can purchase the tablets spray or liquid. Not sure how well they absorb.
Also curious what others have to say.

i used to do b-12 nasal gel before training. it is absorbed in the lining of your nose bypassing the need to digest it.

StlBarbie swears by it.

From what I have read this seems to be the best way.

However, I don't think injectable B-12 will ever be beat.
