B12

Vitamin B12 is an essential water-soluble vitamin crucial for nerve function, DNA synthesis, and red blood cell production. It is found in animal products like meat, fish, and dairy. Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to anemia and neurological problems, causing symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and memory issues. Individuals with a risk of deficiency, such as vegans or those with certain gastrointestinal disorders, may require B12 supplements to maintain adequate levels.
