How is a b12 deficiency treated
After 6 months, methylmalonic acid (MMA) levels, the most specific marker for B12 activity of a food or supplement, went from 164 nmol/l to 169 nmol/l which is essentially no change and by itself would indicate no benefit of the multivitamin
Anyway, the fact is that some people manage perfectly well on a 1mg injection every three months but others, and the vast majority of the PA Society do not, and they feel a return of their symptoms, or their family and friends notice a return of their symptoms long before their next injection is due
Your body may struggle to absorb B12 properly if you have a condition like pernicious anaemia, atrophic gastritis, or Crohns disease
