To add insult to injury, our bodies become less efficient at absorbing Vitamin B12 as we age. This turns into a double whammy for many adults – that is, they’re not getting enough vitamin B12 in their diet to begin with, and the vitamin B12 they are getting isn’t being properly absorbed anyway.
I long ago started using a multiple that contains the fat soluble form of B12....it stays in the body longer than water soluble.
I'm really surprised that the article didn't mention methylcobalamin

Methylcobalamin (vitamin B12) is active immediately upon absorption, while other forms (e.g., cyanocobalamin) must be converted to methylcobalamin in a two-step process. Methylcobalamin demonstrates exceptional activity in areas where other forms are simply not active. B12 supplementation is recommended for vegetarians and those with B12 deficiency.*
It helps form red blood cells, prevents vitamin B12 deficiency and helps maintain good health.* In people with low levels of B12, supplementation is very effective in improving energy levels and restoring mental function.*
