What causes vitamin B12 deficiency?

• Diet low in vitamin B12: If your diet does not include foods high in vitamin B12 or products enhanced with this vitamin, you may be deficient.
• Stomach Inflammation (Gastritis): When the stomach lining is inflamed, it s the production of hydrochloric acid, which is required for the absorption of vitamin B12.
• Pernicious anemia: This is a rare condition where the body does not produce a protein called intrinsic factor, which is required for the absorption of vitamin B12.
• Digestive system diseases: Conditions such as Crohn’s disease or celiac disease inhibit with the body’s ability to consume vitamin B12.

• Gastrointestinal surgery: After some surgeries, such as gastric bypass, the body’s ability to absorb vitamin B12 is affected.
• Excessive alcohol consumption: Excessive alcohol use harms the digestive system, impacting the absorption of vitamin B12.
• Genetic problem with vitamin B12 transport: A rare condition called transcobalamin II deficiency prevents the proper transport of vitamin B12 in the body.
