➡️ Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is one of the eight B vitamins that play a role in our body systems. It’s a water-soluble vitamin that is involved in cell metabolism and the production of DNA. When your body doesn’t absorb enough of this vitamin, this is known as having a deficiency which can be detrimental to your overall health.

➡️ How Long to Recover from B12 Deficiency?
Recovery from vitamin B12 deficiency doesn’t happen overnight. The process occurs gradually and can take up to six to twelve months to fully recover. However, there are certain treatment methods that can help you see immediate results in as little as 72 hours. But, to fully recover, it’s likely going to occur gradually over time. If you’ve noticed any of the symptoms that I mentioned, the best course of action is to seek guidance from your physician. They will test your blood and be able to recommend the proper treatment method for your individual needs.
➡️ Treatment Methods
Dietary changes
B12 injections
Oral B12 supplements
Treating the underlying health condition
➡️ Vitamin B12 Foods
Beef
Chicken
Fish
Milk
Cheese
Eggs
The next easiest way is to consider taking an oral vitamin B12 supplement. However, some individuals are unable to absorb B12 from foods or supplements. In this case, a B12 injection would be the best method for treatment. Your physician will attempt to treat the underlying condition that could be causing the vitamin B12 deficiency in the first place. Obviously, this would be the most effective treatment method.
