Recommended daily dose: 1-2 tablets per day.

Causes of B12 vitamin deficiency can include a lack of Intrinsic Factor, which is a glycoprotein. Intrinsic Factor is produced in the stomach and, together with B12, forms a complex that allows the absorption of B12 in the receptors of the small intestine. Without Intrinsic Factor, B12 vitamin is absorbed to a lesser extent.

Causes of reduced production of Intrinsic Factor can be:

• If antibodies are formed against the cells that produce Intrinsic Factor. This will eventually lead to B12 deficiency.
• Peptic ulcers can disrupt the growth conditions for the cells that produce Intrinsic Factor.
• Intestinal diseases, tapeworms, or consequences of intestinal surgery can damage the inner surface of the small intestine, reducing the ability to absorb B12.
• Malnutrition, such as a diet low in meat, fish, and eggs.
• Pregnancy and blood loss can increase the need for extra B12.
