The NIH Office of Dietary Supplements and the American Academy of Family Physicians identify the following groups as most vulnerable: Adults over 50 Age-related decline in stomach acid production reduces the ability to release B12 from food proteins
For general supplementation in at-risk groups (vegans, older adults), 25100 micrograms daily or 2000 micrograms weekly is typically sufficient
Most people may not be aware that they suffer from a deficiency in Vitamin B12 even if they suffer from the symptoms
