Dr.Vegan Vitamin B12 (good for vegans)
Dr.Vegan Vitamin B12 is a quality supplement, the first order is sold in a refillable metal tin, then you just order refills in eco-pouches thereafter. You can buy once, or get a free pill tin, then subscribe for bigger savings.
Vitamin B12 supports red blood cells, for better immunity and energy and good immunity and nervous systems. 86% of vegans are deficient (and so are many older meat-eating adults)
Before taking supplements, check with GP if pregnant/nursing or on medication. Keep them away from young children and pets, and recycle unused supplements at pharmacies.
Take 1 capsule daily with or without food, ideally in the morning or lunchtime, to fuel your day ahead.
5 signs you may be low in vitamin B12
- You always feel tired. This is because vitamin B12 is needed to transport oxygen around your body, via red blood cells.
- You feel dizzy or out of breath. Again due to red blood cells not transporting enough oxygen around your body.
- Mouth ulcers or sore tongue. This is a common early sign of deficiency.
- Pale yellow tinge (to skin and whites of eyes) can be early signs of anaemia, which can start with vitamin B12 deficiency
- Pins & needles (again often an early sign of deficiency)
When to expect improvements
Within a few days or at least a few weeks. These improvements will be more, if you are a vegan, and start eating properly!
Join the transparent label campaign
The transparent label campaign is a worldwide petition to ask governments to mandate clear labels on supplements, to show if they contain animal ingredients. Many contain ‘hidden’ ingredients like gelatine (animal bones), fish, collagen, creatine and magnesium stearate, which collectively kills billions of creatures).
