Today I’m going to cover the seven warning signs of a vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 is an important vitamin involved in making DNA, myelin sheath, and red blood cells.
It’s important to know how to identify vitamin B12 deficiency symptoms because if you are deficient in vitamin B12, you could experience irreversible damage to your nervous system.
When you’re looking for a vitamin B12 supplement, there are two kinds, a natural version, and a synthetic version. Always take the natural version, which is called methylcobalamin. But, it’s really best to get vitamin B12 from the diet.
The main cause of a vitamin B12 deficiency is not a lack of vitamin B12 in the diet. It has to do with malabsorption-the person can’t absorb vitamin B12.
Conditions that can block the absorption of B12:
• Atrophy of the stomach
• Hydrochloric acid deficiency
• Gastritis
• Ulcers
• Celiac
• Chrohn’s disease
• Irritable bowel syndrome
Foods rich in vitamin B12:
• Animal liver and kidneys
• Clams (and other seafood)
• Sardines
• Beef
• Chicken
• Fish
• Fermented products (kimchi, sauerkraut, and fermented dairy)
• Insects
• Nutritional yeast (non-fortified)
7 warning signs of a vitamin B12 deficiency:
1. Pale skin
2. Constant fatigue
3. Mouth problems
4. Cognitive issues
5. Nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy)
6. Blurred vision
7. Fast pulse rate

I have never been so confused in my life and filled with negativity. I am 30 and this explains why I have been in so much depression, anxiety, having paranoia about ageing and death and constant cynicism towards everything around me. I also feel fatigued and have blurred vision. My B12 levels have dropped over the last few months. I just got my B12 reports and need to work on my levels. Thankyou

I was feeling that everything is senseless and what's the point of doing everything or impressing anyone as it's all gonna end anyway, and then I was losing excitement and motivation. The past 2 days I have found a lot of clarity on my thoughts by constantly talking about it with various people, and making an effort to sit with my family members and talk about the same concerns that bother me much but with honesty.

@@rajat_vl Have you figured out the reason your B12 levels dropped so much? That's important to know because it's not typical for your age unless you're vegan or had gastric bypass surgery, or some similar procedure. It could be something to do with your stomach or small intestine. The injections helped me a lot as well. I was getting the worst anxiety I ever had in my life, a seemingly permanent state of dizziness whenever I walked around, and leg weakness/paresthesia. The injections pretty much gave me my life back.

I think B12 deficiency can make you have symptoms of stroke, too and/or be linked with migraines. Apparently I was having atypical migraines that mimicked stroke. Nothing could be found on numerous CT scans or MRI. Finally the last doctor said could be 1 of 3 things: atypical migraine (I found out later that 2 relatives on my father's side had migraines), seizures or narrowed blood vessels. But I experienced numbness and inability to think or speak correctly. Scary when it happens. So now I try to supplement with at least 1 B complex capsule every day. It seems to be helping me. Not giving anyone medical advice, just sharing my experiences. I'm 46 and never had migraines before 1 or 2 years ago. Regular headaches sometimes, of course. Probably linked with perimenopause (the migraines, more severe headaches), but that's just a guess.

@@w1975b Good luck, I hope you get better. Try not to focus on perimenopouse much but rather if you made some lifestyle changes that could be the cause. I recently discovered that coffee will increase headaches as it shrinks blood vessels in the brain contrary to popular belief. Tested it and it's true: headache went from mild to horrible. Stopped drinking it and headaches are gone. Try taking two glasses of water - that works too for headaches.

@@touro603 Your body doesn’t need much B12, but very often the absorption isn’t so good. And if there are problems with intrinsic factor you can receive injections or daily take high dose B12 direct sticks (powder) or sublingual tablets. Then a small portion of the B12 goes straight through the mucous membranes into the blood, a little in the mouth and a little in the small intestine.

The bottom of the foot nerve damage has gotten me quite a bit lately. I had no idea B12 could help with this. It commonly affects me at night, and when it starts and hits, there is zero warning. The pain feels like someone is stabbing you with a needle with an electric shock tied to it. Then just like that its gone. Then randomly 10 minutes later, it hits again. Zero warning. It just keeps going. Over and over again. I understand the person’s feelings of wanting to end their life over it as it can absolutely destroy your quality of life. You can’t sleep because it simply won’t let you sleep. It’s brutal.

The fewer ingredients your food has, the healthier you will be. The more pronouncable the ingredients are is also a good clue to their nutritional value. When I was younger I drank heavily and smoked a lot of weed. But I've always avoided processed foods and aimed for nutritional foods so I managed to avoid the long term effects of drinking. Well, that plus a daily milk thistle capsule to help my previously overworked liver. I also never went for all the health advice about low fat, sugar free, low-salt, margarine-instead-of-butter hype. As long as you eat moderate amounts of high quality food, you can avoid most health issues. Butter doesn't cause heart disease in appropriate amounts but even a little bit of margarine certainly does cause heart disease, for example.

But I could no longer drive, had excruciating back & hip pain, stabbing limb pain, numbness, vision & hearing loss, severe anxiety, heat intolerance. Once a competitive runner, I now struggled to walk up stairs without losing my breath or even around the block without losing my balance. I was given anti-depressants. Seriously. It was finally a psych I saw for the severe cognitive loss who insisted it was all related. He ran comprehensive bloods & found all the micronutrient deficiencies, esp B12 & low ATP.

I was lucky that a conversation with my doctor led to my pernicious anemia diagnosis and immediate B12 supplement treatment. I told him about my propensity to trip over myself, my tiredness and the tingling in my toes, which led to him asking me a series of questions and sending me for an immediate blood test. You know somethings up when you get a call from your doctor wanting to see you immediately. My B12 levels weren’t even on the charts. He started me on B12 injections and sent me for the test which found intrinsic factor to be the problem. My lasting symptom is damage to the nerves in the toes of my left foot. The chronic lower back pain I used to just “live with” took a few years to disappear completely. One day I just realized I had excess Panadols because I didn’t have the need to take them. Last year I switched from monthly injections (could only get cyancobalamin locally) to daily sublingual methylcobalamin tablets which I have a 3month supply standing order online. When I had first mentioned the symptoms I was having to my dads doctor after one of his checkups, the doctor put it down to signs of aging, he is a relative and about the same age as me.

My Great Grandma had Pernicious Anemia, I have Celiac's, so watching for it. It was very a very sad thing, this is before the internet and easily able to get a second opinion on apathetic Drs. She lost her mind, they wrote it off as dementia, around 7 years she was wrote off, finally a Dr. who gave half a care looked at her chart. "This doesn't seem like dementia", ordered a blood test, and within 6 months she was able to recognized people and got most function back. Why do we not have at least 2 competing medical associations? If the AMA had competition care would improve, and prices would go down.

many years ago, i read an article about nursing home residents under the care of a young doctor, who was concerned about the levels of apparent dementia. an older doctor advised him to administer B12 shots to the nursing home residents. a very high percentage of them had restored cognitive function. everything that looks like Alzheimer's or dementia isn't always. B12 deficiency can look like dementia. In my dad's case, a severe urinary tract infection will convince doctors that he has dementia. a course of antibiotics and his physical and cognitive function is restored. just gotta find doctors with wisdom and common sense, who understand the basics of the body. i love Dr. Berg's videos. so grateful.

I even became depressions. We did a lot of blood testing over the years, but in Germany - where I live - it isnt usual to scan the blood for vitamins. So one day I turned up into the hospital because I didnt know what to do. The doctors there didnt know either at first, but one young doctor came up with the idea. They analyzed my blood and bang, that was it. Turns out that I lack the enzym to crack the vitamin up, so my body cant absorb it from the food. I am getting now injections. First weekly, then monthly. I am in recovery, still feeling bad, but a lot better since my visit in the hospital.

It's usually not a precise one cause/one symptom ratio. The alcohol is irritating to the mucous membrane in your mouth, and I believe chronic alcohol use can lead to all kinds of vitamin and mineral deficiencies, which can lead to immune problems, inflammation, etc. Them throw in any direct causes from any specific deficiencies and your chances of having mouth ulcers goes up. Same way that alcohol use may only slightly increase the chances of esophageal cancer, as well as smoking, alone, only increases those chances slightly. But drinkers who also smoke have exponentially higher odds of esophageal cancer by combining the two risk factors.

I've had a bad leg for the last 4 years and was diagnosed with tarsal tarsal tunnel last year. It all started when I was 7 months pregnant & missed a couple of steps on the stairs and my additional 60 pounds just really compressed the ankle, didn't break but I've been through 4 rounds of PT... Finding the right therapist helped... but I switched from my prenatal to a B-complex and the nerve pain and most of the muscle pain is gone! 😁 I can sleep at night again!

I had issues related with Stomach i.e. indigestion, IBS,anorexia,weight loss and after testing my b 12 level came out to be 62... there was a serious scalloping of duodenum. I have received injections of B12 i.e.vitcofol .I am feeling well now and symptoms have relieved. Couldn't imagine vitamin deficiency can cause such havoc.

Dr. Berg, I really appreciate your videos, very helpful. I find the shorter 5-7 minute ones easy to watch. If I might make a suggestion: there seem to be more and more inserted pictures and vids that are slightly related to the topic, but I find them very distracting. I'd rather look at you (calming) and your notes! Thank you!

I’m really interested in the low oxygen connection and was wondering if there may be a connection to severe CoVid. I understand how fewer red blood cells = less oxygen. My interesting experience with CoVid was not just inability to breathe but also severe dehydration. And the dehydration was directly connected to drop in oxygen. Still piecing it together and trying to recover but this makes me wonder if MTHFR could be a severe Covid risk factor. Would love more videos elaborating on the oxygen connection and if there could also be a cellular hydration component (?)

@Banana-lk7tf Жыл бұрын

There's definitely a connection. I have Long Covid and I only started to really improve when I started going for hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Unfortunately, I can't afford treatments right now, so I'm regressing a bit. But I'm still better than I was before my treatments.

People were much more aware of B12 , 60 years ago. It was said that a perk of going to the doctor was a B12 injection. When I went on a long fast I developed cracks at the corners of my mouth. A chance reading of a family nutrition book said that was one of the subclinical symptoms of low B12.
