About Vitamin B12 Deficiency Symptoms in Vegetarians & Treatment with Healthians
Vitamin B12 is essential for maintaining healthy nerve cells and synthesizing DNA and red blood cells. Since natural B12 is synthesized primarily in animal products, over 80% of Indian vegetarians have suboptimal B12 levels. Left unaddressed, chronic B12 deficiency can cause permanent peripheral nerve damage.
