You might have a B12 deficiency if you can identify with any of these

* Fatigue
* Weakness
* Nausea
* Constipation
* Irritability
* Incontinence

These are just some of the characteristic signs of vitamin B12 deficiency, according to the National Institutes of Health.

In most cases, vitamin B12 deficiency is due to an inability of the intestine to absorb the vitamin, which can happen in several ways:

1. As you age (over 40) or become overly reliant on acid-suppressing agents like antacids, your ability to produce gastric acids in the stomach decreases, meaning that the B12 is less likely to be released from its food source.
2. An autoimmune or other disease reduces the production or blocks the action of intrinsic factor, resulting in intestinal malabsorption.
3. People with pernicious anemia have decreased production of intrinsic factor.
4. Abdominal surgery reduces B12 absorption:
1. Gastrectomy eliminates the site of intrinsic factor production
2. Blind loop syndrome results in competition for vitamin B-12 by bacterial overgrowth in the lumen of the small intestine
3. Surgical resection of the ileum eliminates the site of vitamin B12 absorption
5. Pancreatic insufficiency such as fish tapeworm infection and severe Crohn’s disease affect absorption.

Super B to the rescue!
