Vitamin B and B-12 for Vegetarians
A B-12 deficiency takes a long time to notice, according to Linda Page, and can cause serious health problems; but long term studies of vegans show very little B-12 deficiency. In fact, meat eaters actually suffer from B-12 deficiency more frequently than vegans because of absorb ability issues. For B vitamins, whole grains, like brown rice, and seaweed are primary sources. For critical Vitamin B-12, consider seaweed, soy foods, eggs, nutritional yeast that contain B-12, cereals and super greens like chlorella, spirulina and especially barley grass. If you eat few of these foods, take a vitamin B-12 sublingual supplement.
