Introduction
Vitamin B12 plays a critical role in energy production, nerve function, and red blood cell formation. Despite its importance, B12 deficiency often goes unnoticed until symptoms become severe.

Recognizing the early signs is key to preventing long-term health complications. Here’s what you need to know.
