Not what my doctor said, nor my research found. So far, all sources of B12 that are proven to work are animal derived. Luckily, I'm not a vegan - or a vegetarian for ethical reasons, so this isn't a serious problem. But, for vegans it most definitely is. I'm afraid we evolved as omnivores .

Well, to me, it is. It may be mainly about B6, but it also mentions B12 rather casually, and B12 is far from being a casual vitamin! It seemed an appropriate place to add a warning about B12 deficiency - which is very serious in the elderly.

There is no proven non-animal based B12 suppliment. I assume you are young? For older people (65+), B12 deficiency is very serious - permanent nerve damage, or worse. Vegans approaching their 60s should talk to their doctors. (I am a 71 year old vegetarian and have to have quarterly B12 injections.)

I'm a vegetarian in my 70s, I don't eat eggs or drink milk (I do eat cheese and butter). I had a very severe dizzy spell - diagnosed as B12 deficiency and now have to have regular B12 injections. B12 deficiency over-65 is very serious & there is no B12 non-animal suppliment that is proven to work.
