injection vitamin b12 methylcobalamin in Beverly Hills, Arcadia and Los Angeles County Vitamin B12 Methycobalamin - REGNR8RX

At a glance: RDA: 2.4 mcg/day (adults) UL: Not established (insufficient evidence to set a tolerable upper limit) [ref] Dietary considerations: Vegan and vegetarian diets: Vitamin B12 is only found in animal-based foods, so vegans and vegetarians are often deficient or marginal in their B12 status.[ref] B12 is often added to breakfast cereals and other refined products, so eating a vegetarian diet that includes packaged and refined foods may actually result in higher B12 levels (although probably not in better health)

Yes, vegans should take regular B12 supplements as the vitamin is found almost exclusively in animal products
