Sodium (as sodium citrate)
The sodium version of citric acid is referred to as sodium citrate. It takes the form of a white powder that is crystalline in appearance or white crystals that are granular in appearance and gently liquefy when exposed to humid air. It dissolves easily in water but is almost completely insoluble in alcohol. It has a sour flavour, much like citric acid does. Because of its alkalinizing properties, it has use in the medical field [1].
Vitamin B12
The creation of DNA as well as the maturation of red blood cells both require B12, which is an essential nutrient. Natural sources of B12 include foods derived from animals, such as meat, eggs, shellfish, and dairy products [2].
