Vitamin B12 or cobalamin is an essential micronutrient required for proper red blood cell production, DNA formation, nerve function, and metabolism.
Insufficiency of this vitamin can have wide-reaching neurological and hematological consequences for your body. Our bodies cannot produce B12, thus, we get it mainly from animal-based food and other vegetarian options. To maintain optimal health and quality of life, you need to follow the recommended daily intake of Vitamin B12.
Having a clear understanding of B12 and B12 deficiency can help you attain optimal health.
Join Dr. Dicken Weatherby and Beth Ellen DiLuglio as they share their in-depth review about what vitamin B12 is and why it’s very crucial for our body. We have done the research on the biomarkers to assess B12 deficiency, as well as how we can use some of this blood chemistry and signs and symptoms to assess for deficiency! We talk about choosing the right type of B12 the dosage food sources.
