Signs of a B12 Deficiency Most often, a B12 deficiency will be identified by the presence of extreme fatigue, muscle soreness, or reduced focus and memory loss
Prevention and self-care Adults who want to maintain healthy B12 levels should focus first on a balanced diet and informed supplement use
If switching to a plant-based diet, it usually takes years before a clinically manifest deficiency develops, especially taking the reserve capacity of the body into consideration
Informal reports mention sleep trouble, warmth, a faster resting heart rate, stomach upset, and injection-site stinging
