Vitamin B12 deficiency can be easily remedied as long as you recognise that your body is not getting enough of it. Find out if your vitamin B12 intake is too low.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Typical symptoms that can indicate vitamin B12 deficiency are tiredness, weight loss, indigestion, nausea, bloating, tingling and numbness in the hands, balance problems and a sore tongue.<\/p>\n<p>People who suffer from Crohn's disease or chronic alcoholism or who follow a strict vegan diet are particularly at risk, as most vitamin B12 comes from animal products. Vitamin B12 deficiency also occurs more frequently in old age because the metabolism no longer works as efficiently and many vitamins are lost.<\/p>\n<p>If the body does not get enough vitamin B 12, it can lead to a lack of red blood cells. Vitamin B 12 is an important nutrient for the formation of healthy red blood cells. Too few red blood cells can lead to anaemia.<br \/>In most cases, vitamin B12 deficiency is a relatively minor problem that can be remedied by taking tablets or vitamin injections. In individual cases, a person can suffer mental damage after a long-term vitamin B12 deficiency. This manifests itself in confusion, memory loss and dementia. The deficiency can also lead to nerve damage.<\/p>\n<p>Animal products such as meat, poultry and fish as well as dairy products and eggs are the best sources of vitamin B12. It is therefore important for vegans to take vitamin B12 supplements.<br \/>Vitamin B12 deficiency is not always due to diet, but can also be caused by the body's inability to absorb the vitamin properly.<br \/>Taking certain medicines such as antibiotics, acid blockers and medicines for diabetics can make it more difficult to absorb the vitamin.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>By describing the symptoms, one can only suspect a vitamin B12 deficiency. A vitamin B12 deficiency can only be definitively determined by a blood test.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vitamin B12 is a very important nutrient in the body, which can lead to serious illness if deficiency symptoms occur.
