- Vitamin B12 deficiency can occur in all kinds of individuals. It may be of particular concern if you are following a vegan or vegetarian diet, or taking medications that reduce your absorption ability of vitamins. This video looks at what exactly a vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to and the ways in which you can obtain vitamin B12 through your diet or by taking B12 supplements.

Evrybody commenting about the volume need new headphones or to turn up the volume or buy a better phone with high quality speakers because I hear her just fine. And my volume is not all the way up. Thank you for this info !
I view and hear on my computer which is just fine in nearly all cases. I upped my computer volume and also the video volume and still had to strain to hear. It did not help that the music distracts and the speaker falls off at the end of every sentence. Just because you can hear just fine does not mean that many others can. Your advice is unnecessary.
The sound on this vidio is a bit low but I can still hear what's being explained the information is Quite Good.
It’s low ur just weird
I read subtitles 😆
I used to be depressed and overthink at night. After taking saffron for only 3 days my mood improved significantly. I no longer have insomnia as well.
Did you get injections or how much did you take?
@@mynameisirrelevant46 actually it wasn't the b12 but the saffron supplements. My bad man. Just type saffron online you will find it.
Excellent video thank you. Ive had tingling in my hands and arms for two years now and heart palpitations and extreme fatigue and its from having low b12 as im vegan and have been so for 4 years. My doctor has only just figured out that this is the cause of all of it. Im so happy to have an answer as this has been playing havoc with my life
@Thalaivarin Vazhiyil Way better, been having a B12 tablet every day and all my symptoms have gone
@Thalaivarin Vazhiyil It took a good two weeks to feel fully restored. Don't remember any joint pain but my whole body just felt like absolute shit
@@samcav478 Hi , do you remember your b12 levels =) ?
@Ashok Ravichandran How are you feeling now? Do you still feel the symptoms you mentioned?
Ashok Ravichandran well, I myself also had b12 deficiency bc I was vegan for a long time and had a lot of symptoms too, had a balance problem, numbness in my left leg, joint pain, my both legs and arms weakness, bad fatigue and had digestive issue since I got sick, and it’s all b12 deficiency. I was asking because if you are not taking any injections just like me, as long as you fix your gut by diet and taking probiotics, you probably wanna try the tincture Veganb12 from Global Healing, I got that and in just a month, a lot of my symptoms went away, now I’m only dealing with fatigue feeling sometimes because people are saying that it takes time to heal from b12 deficiency especially the feeling of having anemia, you also wanna eat more potassium, folate and iron high food for you to be able to recover fast and add probiotics in your diet. It takes at least 6-12 months to be fully recovered and a lot of people are saying the same thing. Hope you’ll feel better soon too.
everything i need to know in one vid! greatly put together, thanks!
No even close.
So grateful for your video which covers much more than I’ve seen on other sites. Thank you very much.
I have all these symptoms. I asked my doctor to check my B12 and he laughed at me and said I wasn't low on B12. Why do they get mad when we make suggestions?
Many of them are indeed that way. HOWEVER, we don't need to let that stop us from making suggestions. I can't count the times I've asked questions regarding mine or my Mom's health & turned out I was exactly right. We need to respect the docs but they need to respect us too..
B12 is water-soluble. Just go buy some take it and see if you feel better. Some docs just wanna push pills sadly. Not saying that's your docs case but a lot of them are literally pushers but they have no stigma since they have a degree on the wall. Be careful out here.
Doctors dont gain anything if you become healthy
How are you?
If my doctor “laughed” at me, I’d get myself a new doctor.
I remember when I was younger, times were tough with depression and anxiety. I started eating fresh rosemary with cherry tomatoes and my symptoms cleared up. 🙃
I thought I was dying, before I was diagnosed with Vit B12 deficiency, it felt like my body was shutting down. It was an extreme effort just to walk, I felt absolutely lifeless. Even washing dishes was exerting too much energy. Fortunately I was diagnosed immediately, by my description of the symptoms. Obviously I had to be tested, but my Dr. was correct.
Strangely, shortly before I need a top up of vitamins, I get a craving for cow's milk. As well as extreme fatigue.
@Fluffy Hamster Milk contains negligible hormones and hormones are denatured in the stomach anyway from the stomach acid and digestive enzymes. Cow milk from organic cows is very healthy but goat milk is a good alternative if the cow milk does not sit well in your stomach.
@Fluffy Hamster Dairy contains loads of excellent nutrients - easy digestible protein, b12, riboflavin - pretty much all the b vitamins. potassium, magnesium, calcium, trace minerals, omega 3 acids, compounds like lactoferrin and immunoglobulins. And Lactose to feed all the lactobacilli in the gut. I never mentioned anything about KETO - I'd always recommend a balanced diet of starches, proteins and fats and a little sugar thrown in aswell. I'm am gluten free myself
Same problem ... I had suicidical thoughts.. I lost my hope.. Just 25 years old me, doing like a 65 years old.
@@Krishupdates same ! I am suffering from b12 deficiency... used to train and play for 6hrs a day..now cant even lift 10kgs! Had multiple injuries in the past few months... couldn't understand why..then got tested....and b12 deficiency was detected
@@arnavg7789 😣 take care..
I greatly appreciate your video, which delves into topics beyond what I've encountered on other platforms. Thank you sincerely.
Great video, it would help a lot if you speak louder or increase the volume somehow, also there's a lot of oportunity for you to make the video simpler and easier to understand. Lots of love, thanks for the vid.
The video was extremely simple to follow 🙃
I'm 12 and I could hardly breathe and always tired and never hungry and full for long periods I searched everything then I got a blood test and it said low b12 causes all of those which I have so now I'm having an injection every week for 6 weeks just had my second and I'm praying for my last one to help me because this gives me anxiety and depression
12 yrs old and having to experience that sucks. I hope you can Take some comfort in knowing you are not alone. I am 31 yrs old and I’m still trying to figure it all out as well. Good luck to you and may you find the right help and resources to reach the life a 12 year old kid should rightfully live.
Pray your lord and buy Nigella sativa oil.
Drink all morning. ( bad taste very bitter )
Hope you get well soon champ
Same here too
But after u cud take a supplement I'm not a doctor ok
I start taking b12 shots 1 every wk in a bottle I drink it it helps my depression muccel weakness stomach pain indigestion I feel more relax thank god i feel as though I would have died honestly
Since my husband died iv gone into depression no family or friends is there WHEN you need them only GOD
I trust that you are under the care of a good doctor. 🙏
I had serious problems because of b12 deficiency. My left hand and arm had strange sensations and felt like burning. Through MRT they found a lesion in my spinal chord and suggested that i had MS. I recovered completely after supplementing b12!
may i ask the dosage of b12 did u take , and is it in form of cyanocobalamin or methylcobalamin ? thanks
@@kangonlen8888 My doctor just said take vitamin b12 pills and nothing more.
So I had to help myself.
I took cyanocobalamin pills 1000 µg two times a day for the first weeks.
And i am injecting myself Hydroxocobalaminacetat 1500 µg two times a week.
I will reduce my intake longterm because it is expensive.
@@shezi5797 I am still recovering after 3 months, it takes time to recover, I am getting better day by day. Almost back to normal again.
@@MixolydianMode are there any side effects supplementing high dose of b12 ?
@@kangonlen8888 No, there aren’t.
Thank you for explaining the dangers of vitamin 12 deficiencies.
Thanks a lot
Thanks for the excellent information but the volume is too low. 😊
Thanks meny meny thanks
Having very dangerous form of dizziness and walking imbalance and breathlessness 😥
Are you getting your b12 now? I really hope getting mine up helps. I know it takes time. Best wishes to you.
@@danashannon8234 going through the same thing, wondering if you guys recovered?
If your b12 is low there can be nasty side effects including tinnitus, similar symptoms if your b12 is high
Same here. I just bought some b12 vitamin today and took my first one today. Hopefully this will help me.
🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Yes, volume is way too low, and that is with high quality speakers.
Agreed! I had volume @ it's maximum & I struggled to hear her!
I think she updated the video as now the audio is perfect. Those bringing light to the volume most likely notified her of the issue and she then had the opportunity to correct it. 👍
I find it shocking and sad that my mother’s nursing home considers a B12 level of 220 to be acceptable. It’s so hard to battle against the whole system of geriatric medicine to appreciate that some require higher levels to have optimal health.
Most care homes are deeply lacking & treat seniors with little regard.
Many doctors don't know: Low B12 can also be the result of insufficient
vitamin D. Your body needs vitamin D in order to absorb the B12 in your
food. If you live above latitude 35 deg, in cloudy overcast or wintery
type places and/or don't get outdoors then you are likely on the low
side for vitamin D. Most older folks don't get much sunlight regardless
of where they live and will be low D. So get your D level tested or
just assume you are D low and take 1000-2000 IU per day along with
eating meats.
Yes, also vit d and b12 have some common symptoms, so one is also left misdiagnosed.
Perhaps you can explain how the Inuit are still alive. Of course they get theirs from fish.
@@toni4729 Is there a point you wish to make with your comment? I can't tell. 99.999% of us are not Inuit and we do NOT eat their diet of raw meat and fish. Please be less obtuse.
@@NewbergUSA Do you? Do you really eat raw meat and fish? I am surprised.

Thank you 😊
microwaves aren't to be used at all anyway
Thank you for making this video. Is very complete.
I was admitted into hospital with double pneumonia & a blood clot on the lung so scary , when I was discharged I had a six week course of B12 injections . I started to feel slightly better but it did take me four months to get back to normal health .
Thank you for making this video.
I completely lost my balance for weeks swaying all the time light headed and sleeping but now I know thanks to blood results I was low in b12 so the road to recovery starts now
It's been 7 months. How are you?
At last I realized that she is talking to herself. 😄
Canned tuna fish in water and cottage cheese are excellent sources of B-12 and Vitamin D.
This video needs to be updated. A maintenance injection given only every 1 -3 months are for people who have a very *mild* form of genetic B12 deficiency. Moderate to severe cases require maintenance doses ranging from 1x per month, or 1x every two weeks, or even 1x per week depending on the severity. Please make sure you have your information together before stating something so careless that it could kill someone who relies on this info. Thank you.
I had my quarterly blood work done and found out my b12 was extremely low at 122 so for 3 weeks I had to get weekly injections now I have to do monthly injections and the crazy thing is my insurance won’t pay for it even though I’m extremely deficient.
She states may need shots every or every other day, for 2 weeks, then...you need to listen again before going off on someone.
B12 help me with my nerves problem i have 3 slip disc pinch nerver witch cause numbness tinglin in hands n feet lots of pain allover my body.at times i feel weary weak n tired all those improve thank God❤❤❤

Is these are symptoms of vitamin b12 deficency...?
S Did u get well
I don't have my results yet but have the same symptoms plus exhaustion that lays me out. Numbness and tingling in legs from knees down. Also my vitamin D levels are being checked too. Both of these vitamins extremely important to feel food mentally and physically.
Hi can I ask something
Excellent video! Thank you so much!
B12 deficiency cause your blood pressure to drop and you feel dizziness and fatigue.
Very good information - thank you.
Sad to see that no channel covers the reason B12 now is found only in animal products...
I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency about a year ago and I’m now taking monthly injections. My doctor still doesn’t know why my body isn’t producing enough B12 though.
Your absorption is the problem.. start researching on good quality natural probiotics with B12 supplements .. fix the gut fix your problem..
Our bodies don't naturally produce b12 but we need it to survive, so we get it through food and supplements. Your body might just be having a hard time absorbing it. You could possibly have gastritis....which will definitely cause your body to have trouble absorbing b12.
Your body doesn't produce vitamin B12... you have to eat the right foods. Your body may not be absorbing the B12.
@@dkannan1707 you don't know what you are talking about. Stop making bad suggestions.
@@dkannan1707 Not always. Everyone is different...even with normal blood levels...one maybe "low for themselves; or their' own needs for whatever reason"...this is the problem with 'averages"...there really is NO average.
Since B vitamins are water soluble would INSIST on having a series of injections, to "rule out" your own response, then proceed with other testing. It's not toxic...as it's water soluble. If the MD says..."no, I won't do that......get rid of them...move onto another; probably a good Fx/Functional doctor.
A couple of comments: first, true vitamin deficiency with overt symptoms is one thing. Vitamin insufficiency is far more common and generally without symptoms. Insufficiency is a concern because there can be serious consequences over time. Second thought: the advice given here, to speak to your doctor about vitamin insufficiency and supplementation, is not particularly helpful as most doctors have never received training on the subject. Case in point: a friend of my wife was finding herself becoming confused, with memory issues. She also had difficulty finishing her thoughts and sentences. Her doctor chalked it up to aging (she is 75, slender and fit). No tests, nothing. At my suggestion she started taking a modest 600 mcg B12 twice a week, and she saw a remarkable improvement. That improvement was slow, on the order of many months, but she's perked up, has a good memory now, feels more vital and optimistic, and no longer presents as an 'old lady'. Please, don't wait for your doctor to bring this up.
Very informative but voice is too low. Please speak closer or increase microphone volume. Thank you
Supplements containing Adenosyl cobalamin and Methyl cobalamin are better than cyano cobalamin and hydroxycobalamin
"Better"
Better how?
Doesn’t cyano have something to do with cyanide poison?
@@1950steele B12 can be used for cyanide poisoning. Methyl is better because it is active. The body can readily absorb it.
Much better
I am 20 and b12 deficient. I have gad multiple injuries while lifting light weight in the gym. I used to play badminton at competitive level.(6hrs daily) everything was going good. Now cant even do simple excercises. Depressing is killing me. I am always in a bad mood. Its been 1year now. I got tested for b12 deficiency last week.
Hi now u ok?
@@ffmax9129 how are you now?
My doctor diagnosed me with low B12 absorption. I am a non vegetarian and eat good amounts of chicken and egg. She is asking me to go for stomach endoscopy. Is endoscopy required to determine the causes of low B12 absorption? Please advise.
I would try i.m. inj. For few weeks, see how it works. If it does, means, you have low intrinsic factor.

Don't be dumb. Animal products are not good sources of b12.. plus the aid in developing preventable disease... Especially organ meats.
Stop lying.

Thank you for sharing this vit.B12 deficiency. God bless.
Thank you for the video.! it was way helpful than the doctors i have seen or visited.
It's also a condition that gets misdiagnosed often.
vitamin b 12 deficiency often goes unnoticed. this is especially the case in patients who have diabetes and are on long term metformin.
so it is v important that it gets identified and proper corrective steps in the form of dietary intake and supplements if needed are taken. In my newly launched channel i have put up a few videos about this..am planning more..Do check it out if you wish so

You should get liquid B-comples as it goes directly into the bloodstream. You may not have the intrinsic factor. Also, I would take it 3-4 times daily.

thanks,
Great video very informative but very low volume hard to hear still thumbs up 👍🏻
Right had to turn MY volume up all the way!
Meat eaters can be just a at risk for deficiency as B12 is made by bacteria in the soil...and because soil is so depleted these days, we should all be thinking about adding more fermented products like tofu, kimchi and miso into our diets to get more B12
Do a RUclips search for MTHFR gene. It's the cause of mode B12 deficiency. 🙋
The human herbivory claim has been debunked by vegans. However, you’re not wrong about B12 deficiency prevalence being not significantly different between diet groups, at least from the Swiss Cross Sectional study on micronutrient intake and status...
@@Vulpolox kind of irrelevant when you look at epigenetics... Regardless of genetic problems, most of your genetic activity with diet and absorption come from microbes in your body..

American Academy of Neurology:
People with inflammatory bowel disease may also be at risk for
developing nerve damage and other neurological problems, according to
research that will be presented at the American Academy of Neurology’s
59th Annual Meeting in Boston, April 28 - May 5, 2007.
Inflammatory bowel disease includes digestive disorders such as
ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease that cause swelling and/or
bleeding in the intestines. For the study, researchers compared 103
people with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis to 51 people with
other digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome, gastritis
and chronic heartburn.
The researchers found that those with inflammatory bowel disease were
about four times more likely to develop neuromuscular conditions,
including carpal tunnel syndrome and small fiber neuropathy, which
causes pain and lack of feeling in the feet. Those with bowel disease
were also more than six times more likely to also have a disorder called
sensorimotor polyneuropathy, a nerve disease that can cause weakness,
pain, and numbness. These diseases were more common in women with bowel
disease than men.
“Inflammatory bowel disease patients commonly suffer from several other
medical conditions, like B12 deficiency and glucose intolerance. These
nerve conditions we have reported are often not diagnosed by their
primary care physicians,” said lead study author Francisco De Assis
Gondim, MD, MSc, PhD, Professor of the Federal University of Ceará in
Ceará, Brazil, and a member of the American Academy of Neurology.
“People with inflammatory bowel disease who develop new symptoms, such
as pain or numbness in the feet, should see a doctor.”

I got my first B12 injection by my Doctor yesterday and I still feel even more tired and dizzy then before I had the b12 :(
Hey, how are you now?
How is your health now madam
People should know that cyanocobalamin is the cheapest & least effective form of B12.
Better forms are:
-- methylcobalamin (inexpensive & easy to find anywhere)
-- adenosylcobalamin (harder to find, best found online or at health food store)
-- hydroxocobalamin (hardest to find, best found online or at health food store)
In my experience, methyl works for increase energy in my body and hydroxo works best for my brain/cognitive issues. (but others may have different experience)
If your energy drink or multivitamin contains B12, it is most likely cyano... Your body has to use energy to convert it to a usable form of cobalamin. If your multivitamin uses cyano, it's junk and most of it is going out in your pee. Throw them away and get a better multivitamin. Better yet, learn more details about what *your* specific body needs more of, and buy the different elements separately.
You are also totally brainwashed.
Who tricked you into thinking supplementation is an effective lifestyle strategy anyways?
Why don't you stop eating animal products?
Low volume could be the machine you're listening on. I can hear fine if there's no external noise. Great info.

Did you use powerpoint to make this video?
Excellent informative video. Thank you so much.
Great info . 👍thanks
Brilliant thank you:)
Could hardly hear the dialogue with my volumes full up. Good information, but the speaker's habit of falling off at the end of each sentence makes it even more difficult to decipher. Also, the music distracts from absorbing information. Music does not enhance any of this, but at least its volume is kind of in the background, kind of. Music is the number one mistake of most RUclips videos. It's not needed in most cases and when it is it is very often wrong in multiple ways.
Awesome!
Thank you, clear and educated explanation.❤️👍🌹❤️👍

@@MissKashas
You should talk with you doctor. It could be you need more b12 or it could be something else.
I have pernicious anemia and had alot of exhaustion still for months so I told my dr. He tested me & I found out my b12 is fine but I have hypothyroidism.
I'm not saying that's your case but I think it would be most wise to discuss this with your dr. :)

Apparently my b12 is fine (though the blood test was done exactly 1 week after my injection) they also tested my thyroid & said it was fine.
Though symptoms do match. I have heard many have had tests show fine for years whwn they did have it though.
So I'm left stuck with no quality of life really & trying to find something myself.

Did you manage to sort the low folate? I suffer from low folate doc gave me folic acid tabs :(
Low folate can lead to cancer issues. I had low folate but am fine now. Just eat leafy greens or take folinic acid. I only took one bottle and my Nevena are good now.
@@fantasticmrfox5544 do not take folic acid. It can build up and be toxic. Folinic acid it what you need. Doctors can be clueless. Please do some of your own research.
I got my tests done and I do have vitamin B12 deficiency.

Yes, but also check your vit d3 levles, both have some common symptoms. Low energy, headaches
Irrationality definately yes
Thanks for sharing 👍
Is too much of it ok ? the cvs chewable b12 has 104,000 % of daily value. Sounds high.
Are monthly or less frequent injections required?
WHAT???? How about pumping up that audio?
Does cyanocobalamin injection disrupt the methylation cycle?
I got a tapeworm or some parasite and now my body doesn't absorb Vit. B12 even thought I eat a healthy animal diet.
.
Did you treat the tapeworm
If your intrinsic factor is destroyed how can you absorb b12 from your food?
Sea algae & Spirulina are they known as Pseud-B12 ? An analog of the actual cobalamin molecule. It will unfortunately inhibit B12 utilization in the body. ?
Great video, appreciate for the good precise informations about vitamin b12 and the voice is soft and clear...
Probably a good video but the audio is so bad I had to turn it off after only 1:10....
Some important points have not been mentioned. What happens when a vitamin B12 overdose has occurred? Why do most of the vitamin B12 supplements provide 1000 micrograms B12 per day when only an intake of daily 2.4 - 4 micrograms is necessary?
Because it is poorly absorbed... like 1% even in the best circumstances. I think sublingual is only 10%. Besides it’s not supposed to be the type of vitamin you can overdose on. Supposedly any extra is stored in the liver. It’s a really finicky vitamin and larger than the others so it just doesn’t absorb well even in the healthiest person.
Take ACV with water with food and vitamins. B12 need strong acid to absorb.
Why is the VOLUME SO LOW??????
Thanks u very much ,,, God bless you
25 years depression and vitamin b12 deficiency as well as neuro problem how much issue take vitamin b12 please advising me

Eye and vision problems?? Anyone??
my b12 deficiency was so bad that my fingernails were turning blue because of the lack of blood cells getting to them.
How you fix it
Lack of oxygen which is carried by the red blood cells.
my mind is foggy. i cant concentrate like before. i am underweight, so i found out i am dealing it too.
Does B compelx suffices as b12 supplement?
Befact forte .B1, B2,B6, B12 👍
Spirulina is a great source for B12 & A
Eeeeeeeeh... Not necessarily. It's good for you, but studies have shown it's not viable... Where it feeds the syntropic production of b12 is another story..
Better to stick with plants, mushrooms, and seaweeds + fermented/cultured foods
Thank you so much , very informative.

May be you need a hearing aid or deep cleaning of your hearing.
How does the microwave kill vitamin B12? Is it not overcooking or heating food that results in less nutritional food?
Microwave is destructive whatever it is used for. Destroys molecules.
It doesn’t
microwaves should not be used anyways. really unhealthy
