ਮਾਫ਼ ਕਰਨਾ, ਇਹ ਖਬਰ ਤੁਹਾਡੀ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਭਾਸ਼ਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਉਪਲਬਧ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ। ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਇੱਥੇ ਦੇਖੋ।
In the world, vitamin B12 deficiency is more common in the elderly compared to the young, but vegans and vegetarians are more likely to get it. This explains why at least 47% of Indians are vitamin B12 deficient, as many of them avoid or eat non-vegetarian cuisine less frequently. Vitamin B12 is a crucial vitamin that has a big impact on many bodily processes. As it is not produced by our bodies, one must include its sources in their diet. The main sources of vitamin B12 are animal products such dairy, meat, and eggs. Vegetarians and vegans can consume fortified foods or supplements with vitamin B12 to maintain the necessary amounts of the vitamin. If your diet doesn’t support maintaining the levels of this vitamin, which is kept in the liver for up to 5 years, you run the danger of eventually being deficient.
The production of DNA, the body’s genetic material, and maintaining nerve cells both rely on vitamin B12. B12 insufficiency is typically not a problem, but it can become a nightmare if not treated in a timely manner. By noting these symptoms, you can determine if you are vitamin B12 deficient:
SYMPTOMS OF VITAMIN B12 DEFICIENCY
• Mood disturbances: People with vitamin B12 deficiency frequently experience mood changes.
• Memory issues: It’s time to see the doctor if you can’t remember where you put your wallet or keys because it can be caused by low vitamin B12 levels.
• Balance problems: Do you frequently trip and fall? If so, a lack of vitamin B12 may be to blame.
• Weakness in the muscles: This is another indicator of a vitamin B12 deficiency and shouldn’t be disregarded.
• Depression: Do you refrain from engaging in activities you used to enjoy? Do you feel hopeless or helpless, or do you have low self-esteem? Then, depression may be the cause, which has been related to a vitamin B12 shortage.
• Tiredness and nighttime perspiration: If you have either of these symptoms, vitamin B12 deficiency may be to blame.
