Upon turning vegan, with instinct I switched from dairy milk to soy milk, which usually has a percentage of Vitamin B12 (check nutritional data). At one point I decided to switch to almond milk instead, which has no B12. For a year I had 0% B12 intake on most days. AI conversations taught me that B12 is essential to properly function and without it I would die. My lethargy, abnormal headaches, and uncomfortable red, thin gums were evident over time and it seemed deficiency was the culprit. I bought a box of Silk shelf stable soy milk, my first “dose” had me feeling flushed, fragile, and nauseous, and I had to lay down and rest for 30 minutes. Four weeks of taking the suggested serving size of soy milk before bed helped me acclimate to having no side effects from B12. My gums healed after 6 months of consistent vitamin B12 each day. I feel much stronger, have no headaches, and am fully cognitively functional. Click here to learn foods and beverages containing vitamin B12.
