My Vitamin B12 is 299. Is it good enough
My Vitamin B12 value is 299. I think it is normal and within the range, but I came to know that ideally it should be above 500. I suffer from depression and memory and mental health issues frequently, so I want to know if I should take B12 supplements to increase value. I am a vegetarian and I take fermented millet porridge for Vitamin B12 and not taking any supplements currently. Please let me know if I should start taking supplements (should I take it lifelong) and if yes please recommend good brand without any side effects. Thanks in advance.
