10 Symptoms of Vitamin B12 Deficiency You Should Never Ignore
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 січ 2021
- If untreated, vitamin b12 deficiency can have severe consequences - including neurological problems like nerve damage, blood diseases like anemia, and physical impairments. Even though the average adult only needs about 2.4 micrograms of vitamin b12 a day, many people don’t get enough from their diet or supplements.
The lack of vitamin b12 is even more prevalent in those who follow a vegan or a vegetarian diet or live with a condition that interferes with nutrient absorption.
Furthermore, vitamin b12 deficiency symptoms are varied and common among other conditions as well; thus, most people easily overlook the signs of a vitamin deficiency until it’s too late. Don’t be one of them!

Have you ever had a vitamin B12 deficiency? How did you find out, and what steps did you take to remedy your condition?
No I eat food with added B12 like mock meat and sometimes I supplement.

I'm 20year old
@@romillyheather5261 why?
Wish I would have known about this thing a few months ago. I tested positive for covid in April and I lost my baby in womb at the same time. It was a nine months pregnancy. My gyny didn't suggest anything and didn't gave me any medicine after delivery. They discharged me from hospital after 5-6 hours of delivery as I occupied a bed in covid ward. All of that was so traumatic. I lost my child my physical health and my mental health. My body ran out of vitamin B12 and no doctor identified this problem. Except everyone kept saying that you are in trauma of your child loss that's why you are feeling the pain physically. It is some psychological issue not a health problem. I started seeing psychologist and she told me that your body is in desperate need of vitamin B12. I started taking this vitamin and after 15 days I recovered physically and mentally
So sorry for your loss💔😭😭😭
Sending lots of love❤️ your way.
Hope you’re recuperating a little..
Stay strong🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️🌷🍀
@@silvialola1346 thanks dear 🤗
Sorry about Your story, Hope You are doing alright now. God bless
p.s. also could you share what kind of vitamin supplement did you opt to? thank you for sharing
@@Shkreych thank you for your concern. I hope you are happy too. A tablet named Becozyme along with calcium were recommended by my doctor.
@@sushmasharma6131 I'm sorry for your loss.
I have been to the er many times. Not once have they ever told me what was wrong with me. I have had a lot of these symptoms too. Even down to the symptoms with the eye recently. It started with my hair like 10 years ago. Then I started experiencing the other symptoms some years later. I get more help from youtube than I ever have from any doctor. 😒
Ers.unfortunately dont care unless it's a dire emergency.
@@robertsnow4909 yeah, I see. Some of the doctors at the doctor's office don't even care. One doctor wouldn't even let me finish my sentence when I tried to answer one of her questions. 😕
@@GoaWay... Unfortunately, that's the case with many doctors. The "god complex" theory is accurate for some. I am blessed to have an awesome doctor. He's not perfect, but he is respectful and he listens to me. I've had occasion to deal with many over the years, and far too many show no real care or respect for their patients. Some are just plain rude, and condescending! Sad. What they forget is - THEY work for US!
I concur! After 20 years of neurological problems, a bright, young neurologist asked me to keep my feet together and close my eyes. I lost my balance completely. He diagnosed me. The B12 deficiency was due to bariatric surgery 25 years ago. Why surgeons doing this op don't reveal the dangers, nobody knows. I now inject myself every week and am slowly recovering.
The neurologist diagnosed me in ER.
As a medical coder, I see this deficiency a lot. I’d say the top three vitamin deficiencies I see in my coding charts are vitamin D, vitamin B-12, and iron.
Oh yes. So correct. These are very common. I too have evidence this while coding!!! I am a medical coder too.
FYI iron is not a vitamin....
She said deficiencies. You can have an iron deficiency
Yes you can have deficiencies. I have all 3 of these
@@arulprakash667 where did she say iron was a vitamin?
I started to manifest symptoms (many of them are mentioned in this video) of pretty severe B12 deficiency when I was in my late teens. My Dr. would have me take huge amounts of it on a daily basis for months at a time, only to realize my blood work was still showing a lrg deficiency.
One day, he told me he had really been researching about my issue, and he wanted to run a different type of test on my blood. He explained it would look at a specific part of my DNA, and see if I had a certain malabsorption disorder. I agreed, and sure enough, I turned out to have a mutation in my MTHFR gene. Basically, that's the gene that helps metabolize B12 in the body via a process called methylation, thus enabling the body absorb and use the B12 it takes in.
Due to this condition, I have to take B12 that's already been methylated if I want my body to absorb and use it. Sry for the long explanation, but I want anyone having a B12 absorption problem to have the same opportunity I did to check out the status of their MTHFR gene, and possibly remedy their situation.
Thanks for sharing that, may be useful to some of us :)
I think I have this because all is happening with me.
God bless and thank you for this post❤🙏🏽
where can one find Methylated B12?
@@UwUPLAYZ.
I buy mine off Amazon, and it works great! It's called Vitamin B12: Methylcobalamin (2,000 MCG/serving), and it's made by Nutricost.
I just found out I’m super low on Vit B12. I’m supplementing with Folic Acid 800 mcg and B12 6,000 mcg until I see my provider in three months. I have all the symptom listed and I’m so thankful my doctor checked this for me. I have lost a lot of weight not intentionally over the last 8 months. I’m also a gastric bypass patient and had the surgery in 2004. No complications until now. I just turned 65. Thank you for this video!
Thank you for making such a great video. I have been anaemic most of my adult life, I’m in my 40’s now, and it’s gotten worse over the years. I was diagnosed with pernicious anaemia a few years ago after suffering mostly the extreme fatigue, weakness and mobility problems (I am disabled by chronic pain anyway as well). I needed blood tests and then two weeks of daily b12 injections as I was so poorly. It helped a bit, however I remain badly anaemic and have high dose Ferrous Sulphate to take each day. It’s an awful condition to have and has stolen my life almost. I’m now bedridden by pain and the weakness. Please everyone take note of what your body is telling you. Love and light to you 🔮✨🕯🌙✨🙏🕯🔮
Hi Frances, do you take a b-complex as well as B12 because B- 12 and iron is not the only thing that help build healthy blood cells. I have been studying nutrition for over 20 years and b vitamins more intensively in the last 4 years and Vitamin b2 and folate especially, also play a huge role in blood cell formation. If pernicious anemia is an autoimmune disorder, the usual underlying trigger of autoimmune diseases is low vitamin B1.
If you want a good b-complex, Dr Best activated b-complex is a good one and so is country life coenzymated B-Complex . Being coenzymated or activated helps your body use them much more readily and lowers the risks of negative reactions. If your doctors are willing I would suggest you have them check all your b vitamin levels. The b1 I like is solgar thiamine hcl 500mg. Dr Best Benfothiamine 300 is good too, there is also one called TTFD allithiamine which is good for poor absorption issues or people with severe deficiencies. I would suggest you look up Dr Longsdale. Best wishes to you, I pray you get well soon.
I pray all gets well!❤ check out elder Murray ch. And for prayer. Soul changing
@@markhoward171 thank you I am on B12, iron, folate and D suppliment for a month. But I am sure I am low on B complex overall because of gut issues with IBS/IBD, high histamine levels and food allergies preventing consumption of eggs completely or nonveg food including fish/chicken/mutton regularly. I can consume nonveg only once in a month or so. No eggs at all. Also have malabsorption because of excess bloating. So deficiency is ongoing.
I take b12 shots everyday forever. Two weeks is not enough. You can get it without prescription
I haven’t any help from b12 shots or other b12 supplements. I recently found a supplement that contains intrinsic factor. IF is required to utilize b12. In pernicious anemia we are lacking Intrinsic factor. I’m so excited that this may give me my life back. Perhaps this may help you? I’ve lost so much of my life to feeling crappy.
Has anyone her e had results taking b12 supplements that contain intrinsic factor?
I just found out last week that I was B12 and vitamin D deficiency.
My liver, kidneys are good.
I don't have diabetes. All my results came back great except for B12 which blew my mind. I had no idea that B12 deficiency could be serious. Wish I had seen this video a long time ago.
I’m the exact same !!! Got so many tests back for gal bladder to liver tests to testing for coeliac all came back clear . I then had a blood test and came back very low in b12 I was blown away .
My doctor discovered that I was deficient in B12 when I saw her for depression. She decided to test me for B12 before prescribing antidepressants. We were very surprised! Now, I take a weekly shot of B12 to keep my levels up. If I forget too many times, my levels takes a dive. I had hoped that it was a temporary thing, but if I don’t take it weekly, the levels fall. I was diagnosed about 12 years ago. Thank you for the informative video!
My doctor don't know if I have vitamin B12 or Biotin deficiency.
Because my white blood count cells was high
@@Zookiethecrimecookie I hope you figure out the problem soon! I wish you good health!
My vitamin B12 is 131 pg/ml. I am taking medicines since last 4-5 days, but still I experience blurry vision and the feelings of pins and needles and many more symptoms. Do u think I need to consult another doctor?
@@subhrarath5140 YES! With your B12 that low, there’s an excellent chance that you will need injections. You may not have enough intrinsic factor in your tummy to be able to take up the B12 by eating/swallowing it. The only way to fix it is through injections. The nurse can give you the injections or they can teach you to do it. It’s a short needle and equivalent to what a diabetic does. It’s also cheap 😊! My B12 was in your range when it was first discovered (116). You will start to feel much better if you address the problem! Good luck!
@@subhrarath5140 If you are worried you probably should contact another doctor
My gut feeling stood by me and still is , I have gone full circle with my illnesses almost from cradle to the grave but thanks to friends I am still strong and fighting the good fight.
These are great warning signs to look out for. I pray everyone reading this a healthy future! 🙏
Thanks so much
I remember when doctors use to say as long as you eat right you don't need vitamins. Sorry l very much disagreed then and now l am thankful l always eat right and kept up with a multi vitamin.
Thank you sir, I lost sight due to lack of vitamin B12. It's serious guys.

I’ve been having a lot of these issues and couldn’t figure out what’s going on for months. Been vegetarian since Christmas and some kinda man today in a vegan shop mentioned we need B12 supplements as vegans. He may have saved my but 🙏🏻
Weakness and fatigue, moodiness, dizziness and shortness of breath including vertigo, pins, needles and numbness, limbs that fall asleep, anemia, mobility issues, paleness or jaundice, blurry or distorted vision, skin, hair and nail problems, vitiligo, acne, dermatitis, hair loss, brown gray nails, swollen red tongue, mouth ulcers, burning or itching around the mouth, digestive issues, decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, heartburn are all the sxs mentioned in this video. Always check RBC B12 and if deficient look into methylated versions of B12 rather than synthetic which is in many B-12 shots.
I had covid in July 2022. I thought I was battling long covid for months. But my chronic fatigue became worse and worse. I started experiencing heart palpitations and memory issues and brain fog. Then, gastrointestinal issues like constantly needing to go to the bathroom and having no appetite. I was depressed and couldn’t keep up with daily tasks. I started getting blurry vision fast, swollen tongue, was pale, hair loss bad, and numbness and tingling to the point where I fell 2 times pretty scary for 31. Nobody believed me or understood me. My symptoms were so widespread. My doctor sent me to specialists for each individual thing. I started getting swollen lymph nodes in my neck and under my arm and thought it was cancer considering all the symptoms and the chronic fatigue that was getting worse each day. I had no energy and was struggling to even keep up daily tasks and hygiene. My doctor tried to say it was psychosomatic and I went and got a second opinion from a hematologist/oncologist after scans and a cbc didn’t concern my regular doctor. Right away, he said he thought it was my b12 and a test confirmed it. For months I felt like I was dying as it got worse and worse. I’m a few weeks into injections and feel a tad better but my doctor said it will take 3-6 months to feel full effects of the injections and nerve and cognitive issues. It is serious and it’s not part of a regular blood work/panel which is why it goes undiagnosed for so long before it gets better.
I'm dealing with this now and it's a miserable experience. My entire face is numb, eating is laborious, headaches are virtually constant, my eyes are blurry, my speech is slurred, my extremities are numb and weak, I've lost my sense of balance, and my independence is gone. I'm a 39 year old male with previously very good health. I lost a lot of weight and got into the normal range, and physically I was quite capable.I was fine 6 days ago. Now my body is a wreck and I have no idea when I'll be better.
I started taking a B12 supplement about three months ago and the difference in general sense of well-being was almost immediately apparent. Within a month my energy levels and mental alertness soared and I have also noticed significant improvement in skin tone, hair and nail growth. One a day is all it takes and I don't plan on stopping anytime soon

How much do you take? What type of B12?
I've learned at least 100% more from this video than from any of my doctors over the past 3-4 years! I've been prescribed B12 over the years, but rarely have taken them. Starting tomorrow I'll be taking them as prescribed daily! I've been experiencing several of these symptoms and am now going to put a stop to them.
Me too
What supplements did you take?
Sublingual (keep under the tongue) pills are great for this purpose. They absorb directly in the blood stream and the B12 gets absorbed easily While if you swallow pills and you have intrinsic factor imbalance or imbalanced stomach acid, your b12 may not even get absorbed at all.
@@FishingAdventuresDubai
Ghee well thanks for that information. I have been treating myself with B-12 . But if I miss a day or two I plummet with leg cramps and many more of these symptoms. My gut may be not will to help me. So yes 🙌 under the tongue into my bloodstream. Great.
Keep us updated.
I am a lab tech so I asked my dr to test me since I knew the symptoms and I have a bad deficiency, currently getting shots since I am not absorbing it in my diet. Crazy how dangerous this deficiency really is!
I found out I have Chronic Kidneys Disease. I have to take B12 injections prescription strength vitamin D my iron is also low. I have to be careful all the white knowing that one day I will be on dialysis one day praying for a kidney. Be careful and keep your checkups.

I have been diagnosed with pernicious anemia over 15 years ago by a Doctor Who saved my life because of it. I was in my early 50s and almost in a wheelchair. After receiving B12 injections for about three months I was amazed at how much better I felt. I have taken the injections all these years and have my blood tested continuously.
So cool that Doctor Who saved you!!!
So glad for you!
My sister was in her 30’s and ended up in a wheelchair from B12 deficiency. She was diagnosed with funicular myelosis - damage to the nerves in the spinal cord. After daily B12 injections plus cofactors and physio, she now goes for regular 5km runs! Still unfortunately has some blurry vision and weakness in one hand but thank God for the B12 shots.
I have pernicious anemia too! B12 injections have saved my life. I was only 27 when I was diagnosed.
This is a great video! I was recently diagnosed with a B-12 deficiency (still in normal range but on the low end). I didn’t know what was happening before I was tested. The one symptom that really messed up my system was the fatigue, memory problems and shortness of breath. I wasn’t hospitalized but I was exhausted all the time that I couldn’t do anything. Now I take my vitamins and on the road to recovery or getting back to normal. Again thank you for this video! I hope it helps others learn more about it as well as help people who may not know they have it. 😁
can I take vitamin B12 supplements without doctor's prescription?if I suspect to be Vitamin B12 deficient?currently I am consuming vitamin E due to fatty liver.
@@user-sk8bn4zf6p B-12 supplements don’t require a prescription. However, I don’t recommend taking the supplements without checking in with your doctor. You never know how it can effect you especially if you take other medications or have certain health problems. I’m not a doctor so I can’t say how it will effect you. Please do check in with your doctor and explain your concerns and maybe they’ll recommend for you to take them. I hope this helps you!😁

Are you one of the poor outcasts that you speak of... lacking social skills because your brain doesn't function well, because you are too poor to be able to afford nutrient dense food...?

I was diagnosed 15 or so years ago. My dr included checking my b12 with the rest of my blood tests. Came back at 86, had weekly injections for a month then twice a month, now once a month. He told me to insist I get injections even if other drs said I didn’t need them. I learned how to give myself the shots but get my levels checked twice a year. I also have slightly larger red blood cells and take folic acid for that. I have to say it literally saved my life.
I have larger red blood cells as well. What does this mean? The doctor said nothing about my result.
@@tbunnyshy1 It is one of the signs of pernicious anemia. However, if the blood cells are slightly enlarged and your B12 is in normal range, it probably means nothing.

B 12 deficiency can be really dangerous. I was bed ridden for 2 weeks for all the symptoms. I was barely able to walk. I was diagnosed and took control of my health. Started beetroot juice and Pomogranite juice everyday. Being a vegetarian, not many choices to make but started eating all those things that our grandmother's would feed us during childbirth. My grandma would make curries, laddus with seasame seeds.Went back to the basics of organic eating. It worked wonders. I was back to being healthy in less than couple of weeks. Lesson learnt is health is a contious process and need to take care of it well
Are you stilla vegetarian ? Im a new vegan and im afraid this might happen to me.
Have you tested your b12 again?
Says clearly, you can have it just from animal dairy. So pomegranate and beetroot, not really. But good way to promote this life style. 👏
yeah this vegan shit is defiently not optimal for most people if you just eat good quality grass fed meat and good quality animal products you can get your vitamin b12, vitamin k2 and creatine (what all vegans have a deficiency in) from nature and not industrially pressed pill supplements
@@juwo7569 Eating flesh is not for everyone (whatever the reason may be), just as being a vegetarian or vegan isn't for everyone. Which ever path one chooses be smart, research and know your body. There are plenty of healthy vegans and vegetarians just as there are meat eaters.

Hope you’re better now!❤️
I almost died due to pernicious animia - it's caused by an autoimmune problem: when body attacks the the intrinsic factor in stomach lining. Intrinsic factor carries B 12. So many people now with this and also D3 deficiency. I had both
I have sympathy with you and experienced the same. On monthly injections for B12 and daily doses of D3. Pernicious anemia can easily be misdiagnosed.
Wow... both ....
OMG
Same….
I was diagnosed with multiple deficiencies such as B12, D3, potassium, Selenium, and B3
Pernicious anemia used to be a death sentence. We are lucky that scientists figured out the problem with intrinsic factor. Now, a simple injection can make everything alright! So glad you found out your problem!
I had B12 difficiency. Lost my balance had to stay overnight in hospital and no dx.
Blurred vision couldn't see. Gastrointestinal problems big time. Face yellow. Vitiligo. Many other things.

And one other symptom was moodiness.

Great video. I went in for a routine check up, blood test etc, and was told my B12 was very low. My dr. Started me on 2500 mg daily.

Which type of vitamin b12 did you took? Cyano or methyl?
I just found out after 7 years that I was low on B-12/ folate, my most common symptom was numbness to my legs, loss of coordination, nausea, and memory loss, can’t even get a job without my symptoms acting out smh. I’m reading the comments and I’m glad it’s not just me, every time I struggle to walk I get stares even in highschool I didn’t feel normal, I felt like people were judging me for what I have and lately I’m seeing a neurologist wish me luck lol
Take non fortified nutritional yeast. It's a superfood and it's natural. No synthetic vitamins
I knew nothing about B12 deficiency but was worried about my lack of energy and motivation so I wrote down my concerns and showed them to my doctor at my medicare annual wellness checkup. She also noticed balance and coordination problems that I thought were just part of aging. Blood tests and brain MRI were ordered. Diagnoses: pernicious anemia. She acted like that was good news. Now I understand why. It is easily treated and improvement has been noticeable. I inject myself ( thought I could never do that) once a month now and I'm feeling better and looking forward to enjoying life for quite a while longer.
Some bodies also may not be able to absorb regular B-12 and need a methylated version. Ask your medical provider to test your B12 and folate (folic acid) levels. Checking your vitamin D level is also a good idea, too. Low vitamin D levels can cause a lot of problems.
How to get it what to eat
Vitamin D deficiency affects absorption of calcium which is essential for bones that manufacture antibodies and blood cells. Hence, vitamin D for covid.

Thank you for this video. I am have been vegan for some time. I started feeling like I had chronic fatigue. I could not stay awake during the day... I surfed my symptoms and found your video.

All of these symptoms happened to my elderly Dad. He literally lost 150 lbs within a year. Ended up in ER several times. Please keep your B-12 up. Affects your cognitive ability, energy, motor skills, etc. Take digestive enzymes if you have probs absorbing. Hospital visits are exhausting and doctors don’t always figure it out. Save your health and save money.

My son is a pharmacist and my 80 year old mom was having all of the simptoms. He said her blood pressure meds may be zapping her b12 and to supplement it. The simptoms went away. Thank you for this information 🙂
Symptom.
I had most of these symptoms, mostly tired and losing balans all day. B12 was waaay too low after the blood test. Itake 1000ug a day now and it helps alot
So true. Since a month i noticed very weakness and tiredness. When doctor suggested me vit B12 and D levels, i was shocked my my report. I was very low in these two vitamins. Now am on medication, feeling better since a week. Never ignore these tips. Thanks for the video.
Me too! Surprised.....
What type of medication? Or do you mean B12 and D supplements because I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency and have been taking supplements for over three months and no difference in me.
@@nancymccallum1776 yes supplements. For me doctor suggested to take B12 for 3 months then gap for 3 months then again supplements for 3 months. More over he said its our gut has to be enabled to take B12 and its a slow process. Along with D vitamin he said to go early sunlight for 30 mins. Hopefully it recovers as expected.. Hmm
@Huda Hassan mine was 118, in report it was mentioned range should be 187 to 800 pg/ml
@Huda Hassan Yes doctor didnt say anything to me as well. Just asked to get enough sunlight and medication as i already shared earlier.. With dairy diet as i am vegetarian. Methylcobalamin folic acid tablet
I felt most of theses , which made me feel really ill, for along time, but as time went on i saw my doctor, who ended up putting me on B 12, thank God, and i mean that,
This video is so educational and easy to understand. I found out when i had a mental break down. Apparently i have celiac disease, because i am allergic to gluten. I suffered for 12 yrs before i got treatment.
Same!
Hi, How did you found out that you have celiac disease. And are you thin because I heard it can give you fast metabolism and make it difficult to gain weight. Which I'm trying to gain weight to no progress
So grateful this just showed up like magic on UA-cam.I literally just got back from the ER. Went in ambulance night before because I woke up out of my sleep wanting to faint and my whole body tingling. Just had an iron infusion a month ago for my anemia and thought it didn't take. This makes so much sense
I recently has “stroke like” symptoms (slurred speech, confusion,) and rushed to ER. After many test my neurologist said it was due to low B12. I’ve been getting B12 injections every month and all is well.
did you have issues like, forgetting things, depression and little uncontrolled body movements or feelings ike your brain isnt in your control.
@@rohitRraina hi rohit are you also deficit. Please share your number im also deficient
bruh actually Im suffering through this shit like minor strokes in right hand and i got to know that its happening cause of vitamin b12 deficiency
Thank you for posting this. I had the same symptoms for a week, tightness in head, sinus blocked, tingling in legs and arms and chest pains. My doctor asked me to come for endoscopy and What not but I refused. Then one day I took a b complex and the symptoms slowly started to fade. I still have sleep issues and sometimes breathing issues but not like they were three weeks ago. I am taking b complex daily and feeling much better. I think this happened because I increased my intake of wine and then I took ppi for heartburn which made things worse.
@@merryandmagic2112 I’m happy you’re feeling better but wanted to share something about B-12. I was taking it in pill form but my doctor said it doesn’t absorb as well as injections. I definitely recommend asking your doctors about injections. Just wanted to share. Best wishes.
I’m only 26 and I definitely didn’t have a MAJOR B-12 deficiency but I have begun to notice a huge difference in my energy levels when I take a b-12 vitamin supplement. I don’t feel nearly as weak or fatigue as I do when I don’t take It.
Agreed, I use Mecoblend and I'm energetic and in a feel good mood.
How did you know you didn't have a vitamin B 12 deficiency had you had a blood test? I personally find 1 B12 injection every 3months I just find them so much better than tablets and feels instant. If you have a deficiency or not best go to a Dr have a test if you are deficient you need to take a supplement everyday not just when you think you need it it doesnt work that way 🤒
Please tell me how many milligrams you bought. I have all above problems. Sevior nerve pain too
@@AnoopFrancis where do i get that? Do i need a prescription?? Thanks
I was 20 years old, when a neurologist specialist here in Ontario told me that I was Vitamin B Deficient. He said I was so deficient in ALL B Vitamins. So much so that it was causing seizures in me. I went to see him re severe Epilepsy at the time, & he told me that my crushed right temporal lobe was the main cause of my seizures. Yes, but, he said, it wasn't the only cause. He said my hypothyroidism that I was diagnosed with was causing many of my seizures, along with a severe Magnesium Deficiency also. Therefore, just going to see him alone, I learned that my Epilepsy back then was caused by malpractice. The Dr crushed my right temporal.lobe with forceps when he delivered me. My hypothyroidism was causing seizures too, & my Mom was the 1 who 1st picked up on this because, her mother, & her older sister, as well as my Dad's older sister, all have had severe thyroid problems at a very young age. My Grandma & I would have seizures if we ate certain foods, or didn't get enough iodine in our diets, as well as not take any Vitamin B either. Even now, nearly 17 yrs after I had surgery to remove my right temporal lobe to cure the Epilepsy altogether, I will sometimes get auras if I don't get enough salt in my diet or even accidentally not eat as much salt today as I did say 2 days ago. I seriously need to eat A good amount of salt in my diet daily, or seizures will result. Same with my Vitamin B levels. I have to take at least 150mg of a B Complex daily or seizures will result. At age 20, I had to take up to 300mg of a B Complex daily to avoid seizures. Same with Magnesium. I had to take 600mg daily (no more, & no less), in order to avoid seizures. Therefore, I learned firsthand how important it is to take supplements & how serious having deficiencies can be. It's vital that we all get our levels checked at least once a year. I've had severe deficiencies in Iodine, Calcium, Magnesium, & All B Vitamins, all before the age of 21, diagnosing sed by Drs too. And now in my 40s I have a severe deficiency in Vitamin D, & must take Vitamin D3 daily too. It's a challenge indeed. The best thing for anyone to remember is what my Allergy Specialist in Toronto told me 30 yrs ago. He said if you ever crave anything it means 1 of 2 things. You're either, Deficient in a certain nutrient, or your seriously allergic or sensitive to that. So, be careful he said, & be sure to learn & to get to know the difference between the 2. He knew I suffered from allergies, sensitivities, & deficiencies severely throughout my lifetime. I learned to write down everything I ate, drank, did, etc... Even if it meant I drank a glass of water a minute after midnight. I wrote it down. I paid extra attention to my reactions, etc... Whether it was extreme fatigue, hives, vomiting, constipation, diahrrea, eczema, rashes, bronchitis, sinusitis, OAS symptoms, Asthma, swelling of the neck & fusing it, swelling of the ear to the point it nearly swelled my ear canal shut completely, fluid like sound in the ear or hard wax build up causing ear infections, severe congestion, severe nausea, etc... I've have many symptoms caused by having each of these deficiencies. Your immunity & its ability to fight & cope with it, is vital too. I've been dangerously deficient to the point that it felt like it was the end for me & of me. Too much pain. So, make sure you get checked yearly, & always be your own Dr too because very few are actually knowledgeable in deficiencies. It took me going to a neurologist for epilepsy & brain surgery to tell me about my Magnesium & B Levels. Had I known sooner, it would've made going to school so much easier, amongst other things. Hope this helps some. Take care & all the best to everybody out there. :)
I have very little energy, trouble getting up the stairs and walking from one room to another is tiresome. I am going to call my primary care tomorrow and ask him to test my B12. Thank you for making this video, very informative!
So what did they tell you
I have trouble with stairs
@@TheeeDanielR they said my B12 level was alright but I feel like something is still not right.
@@sherrid2637 Keep searching, you know how you are feeling.
@@lindahorner4313 Had you any viral infection, any at all before your symptoms, this can cause an autoimmune response which causes all these symptoms, I have them after a recent viral possibly CV 19 though certainly some kind of sars, and my mother had pernicious anemia, I am going to get on with the B12, but it could also be post-viral, or both the viral infection triggering the auto immune problem. Wishing us both health.
I was diagnosed with pernicious anemia when I was 29 years old. It can be a hereditary condition. Both my father and my grandmother have it
Before the Doctor found out that I have Vitamin B deficiency I experienced premature graying of hair.
Nausea,vomiting,diarrhea and almost all the symptoms described.
After I took Vitamin B for six months my hair was back to black and it grows healthier,longer and thicker.
All these symptoms I have...I take B-12 everyday...I've change my diet back to VERY health too....thanks for LETTING us know...J
My cat had a b12 defficiency
I get pills from Amazon she takes the pills easly with her dreamie treats
Diabetes and Vitamin B 12 deficiency! The medications that are prescribed such as metformin caused an enormous deficiency . I thought it was the actual symptoms of diabetes. I started my own personal journey to find out what it truly was and yes! The above video is entirely true! You are your only watch keeper/caregiver! No one else is! Doctors are too overwhelmed with way too many patients! Keep an eye on you! Peace ☮️🦋
Very informative. I have been a vegetarian for over 40 years and I have some of those symptoms. I just had a blood test yesterday! Thanks for the information
Average vegetarian
I was diagnosed with vitamin b12 deficiency about 2 yrs ago I had about 8 out of the 10 symptoms also a vitamin D deficiency as well I now have regular vitamin b12 injections every 3 months
I have a friend who is a retired Dr. I had Itching burning in hands and feet (neuropathy) low energy and out of control candida, I thought, mouth sores, itchy scalp etc. Swollen tongue. She suggested diabetes but I didn’t have it. Then she wondered about B12? Feeling a lot better now. Also had all those other symptoms that you listed just figured it was ageing!
Been going downhill for about 15 years. Now I find out that SSRIs, which I’ve been taking since ‘89 interfere with folic acid and that affects the B12 absorption.
I spent 10 years recovering from Ativan, but am afraid to go off Zoloft as the withdrawal is so horrendous. Makes the benzo withdrawal look like a walk on the park. I’m 72 now.
Now I discover that SSRIs were tested for 6 weeks and released to the public. Stay on them for life they said. I’m really tired of being used as a human guinea pig. Very worried about the experimental emergency covid vaccine.
Smart! C vax, the science makes no sense. Looking at who are involved with it should be cause for red flags.
One of the symptoms I had was depression. I was trying to lose weight by cutting out rice and I ended up having very bad depression. Another symptom : I used to burst into tears every time I woke up after sleep. I felt ridiculous that I was crying like an infant after every nap. Luckily I had a close friend who suggested B complex everyday and B12 on alternate days. Worked like a charm!
I can testify of some of those symptoms in particular my hair eyes and nails even my joints and I know this because every time I slack off taking my b complex I experience those effects.
True
Wow! I had explained vertigo a few months ago and I’m a vegetarian, this was never even mentioned as a possibility. I just by chance added B12 to my vitamin routine around that same time. The doctor told me nothing.
Doctors aren't nutritionists so they don't give any useful information.
Doctors normally don’t recommend vitamins. There’s no money in it.
Awful!
@@msnvrmnd94boy u hit the nail right on the head
I ended up having pernicious anemia so I was lacking b12 almost completely. Now I'm on shots & iron infusions. I also have Hosimotos & Addison's. There is a link between them all. If you are b12 deficient make sure it is taken care of ASAP.
When I got diagnosed, my red blood cells were under 5. Which is very low. My white cells were almost visible to the naked eye and I was sent straight to my local hospital to start b12 treatment and have a transfusion. It has led to me being diabetic now too. I was having b12 injections every 12 weeks but lately I seem to need them at 10 weeks. I am also bruising easily.
I had weight loss surgery, therefore; all my vitamin levels are checked yearly. I am a B12 supplement and no problems. It’s an important vitamin.
I have been having digestive issues and fatigue and weight loss. Will def. talk to my MD. Thanks for sharing.
I have had Ulcerative Colitis for 20yrs. I lack some enzymes in my intestines that don't absorb Vit B12 from my body and I can't eat everything so I don't get VitB12 naturally. I was advised away back when first Diagnosed I should have Vit B12 injections whenever I felt weak or fatigued. This happened for a short time but my GP never followed it up.
I am older now and Recently I have been experiencing several of the symptoms youv'e shown. Light headedness, weakness, breathlessness, numbness pins and needles. I have reflux, and more.
I went to my GP. My daughter is convinced my problems come from Vit B12 deficiency so she encouraged me to see my GP again.
The nurse took blood tests and the one for Vit B12 was "over the rating but not enough to be concerned about". So I was given Iron Tablets instead. Remember 20yrs ago a Consultant Gastroenterologist told me I would need Vitamin B12 for the rest of my life.
I had a bad fall in January last fracturing my T12 vertebrae in my back and crushing my little finger and ligaments torn in my feet due to me getting up from my sofa my feet were numb I went to walk out the room but my ankle wasn't going with me. I heard a very loud crack. My ligaments in my ankle torn away from the bone and I also got the other injuries I mentioned above at the same time.
I still get light headedness and all the symptoms mentioned above and on your video. I want to feel well I am an active person by nature and I really believe that I need Vit B12. Should I have to go convince my GP.
I bought B complex a few days ago. This video confirms that I am on the right track to get my hair and nails healthy and have energy.
CHECK ALL YOU VITAMINS
Hello
I can vouch for efficacy of Vit B 12
I would suffer from recurrent mouth ulcers as a kid, no remedy helped and I lived with this discomfort through my adult life.
Till my first pregnancy, when I was prescribed Vit B 12 and folic acid, to aid healthy pregnancy
And wonderfully, the mouth ulcers too disappeared
Afterwards I decided to keep up my intake of Vit B 12, and the result was complete absence of mouth ulcers.
Also want to add that at age 52, I have just a few strands of grey hair, which is so rare, thanks to this wonder Vitamin.
I take both a Vitamin B12 gummy + a Vitamin B Complex gummy.
Notice how B12 in high amounts is 1 ingredient in small high energy drinks besides caffeine. I'd rather take another B12 gummy.
Excellent video! I discovered my B12 deficiency a few years ago. Vertigo pins and needles fatigue etc amounted to a series of falls not serious but frightening I saw a Dr but was not diagnosed with this it was blamed on my ongoing fibromyalgia. Symptoms continued so I did my own research and found info on this vitamin and I took it seriously and changed my diet and started this supplement over 4 months to 8 months I noticed a lot of improvement in my balance energy skin tone and my blurry vision improved I am very careful of duet and always take a balanced daily dose of general supplements. I take only what I need just don't go overboard. It can be harmful and very expensive! I worked my dosages out with a Dr and common sense.
I had many of these symptoms. I recently got my blood test results that told me about my deficiency and I've been taking B-12 tablets for two weeks now and already see a lot of improvement.
did the dr. say how long you will have to take them for?
@@therobinmasterstheory1636 No...perhaps till my next blood results come out ok.
Me doing the same for last 5 days
I have just been diagnosed with very low B12 levels, having to have B12 injections every other day. I was feeling all that was mentioned above for months.
THE INFORMATION IS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS GREAT ADVISE .🙏👍💪🙏
I had almost all of these symptoms, they thought I had MS. My B12 was not even below the range it was about 350 but still in the range. One doctor thought it wasn’t that bad and stopped giving me the shots. I got so bad I had to see a neurologist and he said I needed a shot once a week so we will see. Many of my symptoms are better but not gone.
Vitamin D is vital for ms. Listen to the coimbra protocols
@Max Szyslak where do you order from?
Hello, and how are you currently? A hug from Argentina
My wife has celiac and she has a lot of these symptoms, she started talking B12 today hopefully she will start feeling better soon
I got my first B12 injection yesterday. I feel so much better!
You can take vitamin 12 as a vitamin over counter did u know this?
@@chrisanshaunagracie4217 it doesn’t absorb if you have weak digestive system, not enough stomach acid and it’s just money down the drain. But he/she can try a spray that you spray under your tongue and hold it a minute, this way it will go directly into a blood stream.
@@chrisanshaunagracie4217, only 1% to 2% is absorbed under the tongue (sublingual) and if you have malabsorption, there is no absorption in the stomach. B12 injections are a must.
I found out recently after a blood test when in hospital for a broken leg. I was given 3 injections a week for 2 weeks and told to have an injection every 3 months from now on. I have had symptoms of numb feet for years and never given a satisfactory answer for this. I also have some hair loss. I have found your video very interesting thank you
I noticed less energy, and was sensitive in emotions, lack of sleep, bowel issues, dizziness, out of sorts...it was awful, then took b12;on thr tongue, and also,iron, and Ba vitamins....now I feel much better....
So glad you found relief!
I had numbness in my thumb and foot. Doctor told me to take B12 tabs. Feel much better.
OMG,this video just told me I need more B12. I have one of the problems you mentioned. Thank you. My doctor never took a blood test. And told me I have a fungal infection. Gonna get this right away
I am 23 year old male in college I had 8 out of the 10 of the symptoms mentioned in the video. Got blood work done last year in August literally on my birthday found out I was vitamin b12 deficient with many more vitamins. My doctor told me to take the b12 shots I refused I wanted to change my overall diet. First I started with healing my gut so my body could absorb the vitamins better . I ate a lot of fermented foods to heal my gut. I literally ate nothing but brown rice, eggs , bee pollen , lots of fruits , leafy greens , beef liver capsules ( highest b12 out of all the foods I ate) I feel so much better given I play college football my doctor assumed nothing was wrong with me but I went in for blood work anyway now I feel so much better and healthy. My advice is to change your diet and live a healthier life style
Hi you eat rice in breakfast lunch nd dinner? Or something else
@@parasmanocha999 I only ate brown rice for dinner almost everyday morning and lunch I switch it up but eating high value fruits and vegetables and putting my body in the optimal position to absorb these vitamins

@@junex759 i suffer from this problem thanks for the help
Good video, and very important. Doctors never could find why I felt so tired and other symptoms. I met a Saint in India. One day He came into my dream and told me that I needed to take vitamine B12 injections. I never even heard of it, so I went to the hospital, they took some blood, and when I visited my doctor a few days later, he told me to sit down, and before I knew what was happening, he put a needle in my arm... I said, he what are you doing? My God he said, your levels were very dangerously low... I had 18, it should be minimum 150. This Saint saved my life, telling me about B12 need to inject
I love your story... I got info in a similiar way😀
@@TheCelestialhealer Thank you for your positive reply. And a good timing. I have been postponing injecting myself (needles are still not my favorite), but I will do it today, so thanks for the reminder.

This video is spot on. Found out my b12 was dangerously low when they diagnose my cancer.
I found out that i was very low in B12 by looking up my systems i was having. Like weakness, that was very scary along with a fall i had last April down my basment stairs, i live alone and that wasnt good either. But am very independent, so started to put as much time and staying on line to figure out how to fix my self. I had blood test done that confirmed my low B12 and a few other levels were down, like my triglycerides were high so look up on line again and got info how to lower them by my diet. I still come on line for info so the dr. Can't put me on pills that would have given me new issues to deal with. So far am doing much better but would like to b even better i know it takes months to recover and i learend when i had stop taking good care of my self and why, thats all changed. So keep updating info on this , i need it and enjoy what i learn, thku.
I noticed that my memory was getting really bad. Went to the doctor and he took lots of blood test. Found out my B12 was extremely low. Took daily B12 injections for a week then adjusted the injections until I found the right dose. I was around 40 when I was diagnosed. I use sublingual B12 now and seem to be okay I am almost 60 now.
Same. 39 i think.
I u
is your memory back to normal
Twenty years ago I was told I was out of B12. I had no idea it was so important and it scared me. Fortunately, a doctor at my nearest hospital, a hematologist (he worked through the out-patient kemo department) gave me B12 injections every month for six months. I have been fine since then. I didn't have cancer but it may be that where they put the doctor you need isn't where you think he/she is.
My doctor tested my blood and found out I had a B-12 deficiency. After giving myself I'm injections for a while I noticed a change in my nails of my thumbs and index finger. For years I had ridges across them like they were corduroy. The ridges had been there for more than 10 years. Now they are completely gone.
Same with me.
Same with my dad
thanks, I've got those too, and skin rashes and cracked tongue or geographical tongue which the doctor simply ignored as one of those things. I'm taking sublingual B12 but have ordered the vials for self-injection from a reputable company in Thailand, no use trying to get my doctor on board.
I had a b12 deficiency most of my life. I was diagnosed with MS in 1999 and then ITP in 2002. I also had ITP as a child but it was never diagnosed then. I take b12 injections once a month. But now I wonder if the diagnosis of MS was incorrect and truly was the b12 deficiency all along.
I like this possible u never has MS.
I think my mom had a vitamin b12. She had a low hemoglobin and dizziness sometimes confusion. She fell a lot too. Diarrhea was her first symptom that was effected her the longest.
I was B 12 deficient & protein deficient at the same time. Nurse gave me a metabolic blood test to diagnose. Craved CVS vitamin B 12 and I craved bone broth along with vitamin enriched pea protein drinks. Now a days I make sure to get 52 grams of protein per day and make sure to pick B 12 enriched foods.
Thank you , excellent video ,i had severe lethargia and and cloudy head ,after blood result and having B12 injections , the symptoms disappeared, diagnosed pernicious aenemia ,have shots 2nd monthly.
Good video. As a teen i took b12 shots. Truly helped since i was a thin teen. Made me stronger in sports,better emotions.I am 76 and still work and watch my b12!!
I found out by watching your video. I went to my doctor last week to advise him I have trouble walking. My feet, ankles, tendons hurt. I'm 67, but recently started walking like I'm 90. My feet are sensitive to touch. My fingers and wrist constantly hurt, sensitive to touch. From childhood, I was diagnosed with clinical depression, and it has worsen over the last year. My dr. didn't ask question, just set me up to have feet and hands Xray. After watching your video, I feel I may be experiencing these symptoms due to a lack of b12. I have been a vegetarian for 5 and half years. Before I became a vegetarian, I may have eaten meat maybe twice a month. So, perhaps I was already lacking b12. I thank you very, very much for this video.
I had be 12 deficiency so bad I had to have blood transfusions also when you pull your lower eyelid down look at the color if it's real pale you need B12
Get your iron and ferritin levels checked too.
I was diagnosed with this too late so i have pernicious anaemia, i have to have b12 injections for life, this information is vital, please get it checked early x
The really amazing thing was my brother was getting injections of b12. Yet I had to wait and wait for results before they were prescribed to me . I was a lucky person that day scary thinking back , but life is precious and I’m grateful. Listening to all the symptoms I don’t know why I’m here I’ve had them all.
I was under the impression that you became low in b12 it was due to alcohol dependence… I now believe that it is the illness that is the cause.
Looking back I can tell my brothers cause in becoming dependent on b12 but he wouldn’t believe me.
I actually just found out from my hematologist that I am deficient in B12..For years I have struggled with Anemia, and my regular dr always blamed my iron defiency for my issues..But there were so many other symptoms that werent in line w iron def..So glad my hematologist checked my b12..I have been prescribed 1,000 mg a day, between that and my iron transfusions I may finally get feeling better again..
kelly hawkins do u get blood transfusions for anaemia.?
@@janeyd5280 yes
I had double vision, numbness, troubles walking. Thought it was MS, but MRI was normal. Turned out it was Pernicious Anemia, I do shots every 3 weeks.
What levels are we looking for? What is a normal level?
I have some of these symptoms ,have taken B12 from time to time but not on a regular bases ,I have found this video very helpful thanks for sharing.
same here
Thank you for sharing this information. I am glad my doctor detected this deficiency and put me on long term vitamin medication. I am feeling healthier and more energetic now.
I knew it because my blood work came back showing me to be anemic. I eat meat so it really didn't make sense, so I started taking B12. I feel somewhat better, I am not as tired.
