The present invention relates to compositions and methods for prophylactic nutritional supplementation and therapeutic nutritional supplementation. Specifically, the composition provides a nutritional supplement with a beneficial increased supplementation of vitamin D and the method involves administering to an individual a composition comprising carotenoids, vitamin E, vitamin D, vitamin C, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid, pyridoxine, biotin, pantothenic acid, cobalamin, magnesium, manganese, zinc, selenium, chromium, copper, alpha lipoic acid, and lutein.

The present invention relates generally to the use of vitamin B12 (cobalamin or cyanocobalamin) alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents, including specifically other vitamins such as vitamin B9 (folic acid or folate) and vitamin B3 (niacin or niacinamide), or any chemical derivative of these vitamins and their salts, as a filter to protect cells against the damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) light. The invention is, in one aspect, a method of reducing the rate of UV damage to cells exposed to a UV light source, by treating the cells with the vitamin composition, either alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents. Other aspects of the invention are compositions comprising effective amounts of vitamin B12 alone or in combination with other photoprotective agents including vitamin B9 and vitamin B3 and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier, that are useful in protecting cells, particularly skin cells, against the burning, genotoxic (mutagenic and carcinogenic), immunosuppressive and photoaging effects of UV light, especially sunlight. The invention has application as a UV light filter in oral preparations including tablets and drinks, topical creams, lotions, sprays, wipes and cosmetics. The invention also has application as a medicinal treatment for dermatological conditions caused by exposure to sunlight, such as actinic keratoses, photodermatitis, photo-induced (discoid) lupus erythematosus and the photosensitizing effects of a variety of drugs used commonly in clinical practice (e.g. certain antihistamines, ACE inhibitors, and antibiotics such as tetracycline).

The present invention relates to troches, patches, gels, or viscous liquids for topical treatment or prevention of mucosal surfaces containing as an active ingredient molecules of cobalamin for the treatment of inflammatory, ulcerative and painful conditions of mucosal surfaces such as mucositis, stomatitis, vestibulitis, aphthous ulcerations, and Behcet's syndrome. For reducing the incidence, duration, and pain levels of recurrent aphthous ulcers, bioactive cobalamin may delivered with adhering discs that stick to a tooth.

A composition and method for lowering total cholesterol levels and triglyceride levels and for reducing homocysteine levels in a human has policosanol, which is a mixture of fatty alcohols derived from sugar cane wax, omega fatty acids which are DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and vitamins B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride), B12 (cobalamin) and folic acid.

A dietary nutritional supplement is designed specifically to address the needs of tobacco users, in particular smokers. The nutritional supplement for smokers contains effective amounts of vitamin B complex, vitamin B₁₂ (Cobalamin), Vitamin B₃ (Niacin), vitamin C (Ascorbic acid), L-cysteine, L-methionine, co-enzyme Q₁₀, milk thistle, ginko, ginseng, selenium, yerb santa, marshmallow root, and zinc.

The present invention relates to a composition for external application for improving a skin disease (e.g. psoriasis). Said composition contains adenosyl cobalamin (coenzyme B12), opt. in admixture with other cobalamins. Preferable said composition is present in the form of liposomal preparations, which are made of a phospholipid and cholesterol.

The present disclosure provides a single dose form composition to optimize the relationship between the ‘Folate-Cobalamin’ and ‘Choline-Betaine’ pathways. Single dose form compositions disclosed herein ensure an adequate intake of the rate limiting compounds that have been demonstrated to reduce the efficiency of this vital metabolic axis, and methods of use thereof.

The invention discloses a disease controlling microbial fertilizer special for tuberous crops and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a microbial fertilizer special for controlling sweet potato black rot and a preparation method thereof. The microbial fertilizer is prepared by mixing of the following raw materials: antimycoin streptomyces powder, wet streptomyces powder, paenibacillus pabuli powder, paenibacillus jamilae powder, and potassium fulvate raw powder. The strains involved in the invention can utilize the antibiosis, competition, hyperparasitism and bacteriolysis effects between or within microbial species, or utilize secondary metabolites to induce disease resistance of sweet potatoes, and can produce a variety of antibiotics like endomycin compound, non-polyene antifungal antibiotics, dihydrostreptomycin, humidin and cobalamin to inhibit sweet potato black rot pathogenic bacteria and strengthen the disease prevention effect. The microbial fertilizer provided by the invention is safe to human and livestock, and is environment-friendly. Application of the microbial fertilizer provided by the invention to control of sweet potato black rot is not easy to produce drug resistance. The microbial fertilizer has the advantages of simple preparation method, low cost and easy use.

The present invention provides methods, compositions, and kits for detecting TC I deficiency in individuals with low serum cobalamin levels. Methods for detecting TCN1 mutations and/or the TC I isoforms or products of TCN1 mutations are useful for detecting and diagnosing those who have TC I deficiency and thereby can be said to have TC I deficiency instead of cobalamin deficiency.
