The role of vitamin B 12 is very crucial as without enough red blood cells, your tissues and organs don't get enough oxygen. As a result your body cannot work well. You will suffer from weak musles, numbness and extreme fatigue.
A serum vitamin B12 level between 200 pg/mL and 900 pg/mL is considered normal, however, values ranging between 300 to 350 pg/mL is recognised as a marker for a desirable status in the elderly.
You will opt for taking vitamin B12 shots if your levels are too low. Below 200 pg/mL are considered for injections and medications as recommended by a doctor.
All dairy products are a good source of Vitamin B12. In addition, one can include red meat once a week to boost vitamin B 12 intake
