➡️ Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Vitamin B12 deficiency isn't common in the United States due to the regular diet of most people. However, it is more common amongst vegans and vegetarians because plant foods do not typically contain this vitamin. For those unable to get it from their diet, this vitamin can be consumed as an oral supplement, injection, or nasal spray. Vitamin B12 is generally considered to be safe, however, this is something that must be discussed and should be recommended by your physician.
