Without a diagnosis of these issues, its important to watch for less specific issues like: Fatigue Memory loss Shortness of breath Poor balance Keep in mind that a vitamin B12 deficiency can progress very slowly and go unnoticed easily
Feeling unusually tired, losing focus, or noticing slower stamina can indicate your levels are dipping
Vitamin B12 dosage The average recommended daily amounts, measured in micrograms, vary by age: Infants up to age 6 months: 0.4 micrograms Babies aged 7-12 months: 0.5 micrograms Children aged 1-3 years: 0.9 micrograms Kids aged 4-8 years: 1.2 micrograms Children aged 9-13 years: 1.8 micrograms Teens aged 14-18 years: 2.4 micrograms Adults (19+ years): 2.4 micrograms Pregnant: 2.6 micrograms Breastfeeding: 2.8 micrograms Vitamin B12 foods You can get vitamin B12 from animal products, which have it naturally, or from foods that have been fortified with it
Medications that may lower your B12 levels Believe it or not, the medications you take for other conditions might be robbing you of your B12
This means the person benefits from taking additional B12
