I am going through b12 deficiency. Its really bad. I had all these symptoms. I was feeling weak and dizzy all the time. Have blurred eye vision. Was not able to stand and breathe properly. My brain was giving me trouble. I use to feel cold even when its very hot. My heart rate and pluse rate was high. Then I got my blood test done. Where my doctor found I got b12 deficiency. Now I am on b12 diet and supplements. Hope I recover soon. Thats for everyone out there. If you feel such symptoms don't neglect them immediately go and see your doctor.

If you are on B12 and are still experiencing symptoms of B12 deficiency, you may not be able to absorb oral B12. A blood test for B12 and methymalonic acid can help determine whether or not you are able to utilize oral B12. If not, consider switching to sub-lingual B12. My nutritionist had me make the switch and it made a world of difference. Within a week, my upper airway was clear and my breathing improved tremendously.

Thank you for succinct and direct presentation highlighting symptoms that are most common and for the people that say check lab, most physicians are required to have an indicated symptoms or group of symptoms which then are coded and validate the test or tests being ordered. No symptoms, no codes, then CMS or Medical Insurance refuses to pay. Usually labs will require the appropriate diagnosis code for each test before they will do any lab test. Therefore the first step in process is usually detection of symptoms usually resulting in change of energy or outward symptoms such as mouth sores before we will be motivated to remember and report it to physician. Thank you for being succinct and using lay terms.

For people following a vegan diet, it’s important to not that the only reliable sources of B12 in plants have been found underwater. Duckweed (water lentil) and Chlorella (Algae) have been shown to contain bioavailable sources of B12, however early studies haven’t been as reliable in finding B12 in Chlorella- it has been thought that the early testing methods weren’t as robust as newer methods. The algae Sprinula has also been shown to contain B12, however it has shown to be an analogue source of B12- This can be potentially dangerous. The B12 molecules in Sprinula have a similar structure as B12 found in soil, meat and Chlorella, however, it’s not very well absorbed. This means that it will bind onto the same receptors as B12 blocking other B12 molecules, which are better absorbed, from binding onto these receptors. Whilst Sprinula has a lot of other nutrients that will be absorbed, it is probably best to limit the intake of Sprinula. Duckweed is harder to come by, however Chlorella can be taken in a powder form by itself or in a ‘greens’ superfood powder. One study I read showed that giving individuals who had B12 deficiency 15 Chlorella tablets twice per day helped restore there bodies levels of B12.

I have MS and I think that probably B12 shot can be really helpful so I'm going to ask my doctor about this

thanks for such a clear answer and so easy to understand with your graphix

Great article.

Love the way he speaks

As we age our bodies decrease production of hydrochloric acid, which is needed for our bodies to metabolize B12 in the food we consume. As a result after age 40 or so, we also cannot process oral B12. This makes sense. The best way to get supplemented now is IV, IM, or SC....I prefer subcutaneous as this is the most convenient and fairly pain free...I am an RN and I teach others how to do this easily and cost effectively...doctors charge too much, it is so unnecessary. I have heard that doctors will charge anywhere from $25-$50 a shot, plus the cost of the visit. I am in Canada and can buy it over the counter for about $ .80 a shot, including the needle. Doctors can get it even cheaper, so this is pure profit for them.

Even I am diagnosed with deficiency B12....and Iam not able to walk properly and having stiffness is body moments...is it because of tht?

I read a lot, and sometimes my vision goes blurry and I cant read anymore, so I lay down and close my eyes for 20 mins and its better again.

Thank you.

I had a B12 deficiency while on a vegetarian diet. I'm still vegetarian, but now I take supplements and eat fortified cereal, and I do fine.

Interesting. I’ve been vegetarian for decades. I looked at my son’s bloodwork and saw he needs b12 just last week and started using b-complex. The doctor never mentioned it, I had to see myself. I did ask his nurse and she agreed and said “he must not have thought it was important,” hmm

Thanks for sharing video

The best way to determine whether you have a B12 deficiency, or any vitamin deficiency, is to go to a lab collection facility like Quest Diagnostics and order lab work. It won’t be covered by insurance, but is affordable. You can get B12 checked for less than $50. It’s better to take that approach than to experiment and not really know for sure. And you definitely don’t want to leave things like iron, vitamin D or vitamin E up to experimentation because having too much of those vitamins can be detrimental to health.

When getting labs done, you should stop any supplementation for a while, before hand, or let them know what you take so they know what labs to run. Our bodies store B 12 for a time, so if one is tested with supplementation being current or just recently discontinued, some labs could yeild false results. Thanks for pointing this out!

If you’re experiencing shortness of breath, chest pain, swelling in your legs, fever, etc…please see a doctor or seek emergency attention. For most lab work you’ll have to go in for a draw in person, just like a doctor’s visit.

It is a good information we are getting it from you. I appreciate if you let us know, can any one get to know in one pathology test that what are the vitamins are lacking in a person? If so what test one should take to know the deficiencies one got.

B12 is absorbed in the last part of the intestine {ileum] to be absorbed the vitamin must combine with intrinsic factor a protein produced in the stomach by the parietal cells. Some patients that have had an ileostomy will experience a gradual decrease of their levels of B12.

I was 11 when I started getting weird symptoms like my tongue was numb and tingly feeling , I was always tired and I started to lose feeling in my toes & fingers. Then at 16 I was tested for a B-12 deficiency. It was the old shillings test where you take a radioactive B-12 pill and the. Collect urine for 24 hours lol and the results showed I had zero B-12 in my body and couldn’t absorb it, I guess my urine was glow in the dark?. Every woman in my family has pernicious anemia but I was the youngest one ever diagnosed with it. The doctors were shocked and all thought this was only in people over 50.

I have B12 deficiency and i can say that there's more things you guys can analyse to see if you have it too! And they are insomnia (there are some cases that of course is a spiritual problem, but in my case it was not), feets that cant be quiet, already move even a little bit without you know (looks like when you're anxious), not a really good memory, in fact you forget the things really easy (almost like Dory hahah :( you forget basic things) and in some cases anxiety and depression (coming to say it again, it could be a spiritual problem, BUT sometimes its just deficiency of B12)

Thank you!!
