Vitamin B-12 also acts to prevent nerve damage, maintains fertility, promotes normal growth and development of the fatty sheathes that cover and protect nerve endings. It has also been linked to the production of neurotransmitters that assist memory and learning.  
 

Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12, is necessary for the body’s normal synthesis of red blood cells, important for the maintenance of a healthy nervous system and vital for the proper growth and development of children.*

The Board of The Institute of Medicine, Food and Nutrition recommends that adults older than 50 years get most of their vitamin B12 from supplements or fortified food because of the inability to absorb this essential vitamin from foods that come from animals.

B12 is also important in maintaining the health of nerves in the human body. The nervous system contains an insulating fatty covering comprised of a complex protein called myelin. B12 plays a vital role in the metabolism of fatty acids essential for the maintenance of this nerve covering. B12 supplementation is crucial if you are a vegetarian because, since there isn’t an adequate source of vitamin B12 in plant foods, vegetarians often have low serum B12 levels. The American Dietetic Association has stated that vegetarians are at risk of a vitamin B12 deficiency and highly recommend supplementing their diets with B12. Symptoms of B12 deficiency include lack of energy, shortness of breath, anemia, menstrual disorders and poor resistance to infection.According to a study conducted by The University of California Department Of Medicine, taking B12 and Folic Acid supplements together aids in cardiovascular health.
