Vitamin D and B12 deficiency
I got myself tested for vitamin d and vitamin b12 and the results showed that I am deficient in both of them. Vitamin d is at 5 and b12 is at 150. What supplements should I take, and in what quantity for this with a mostly vegetarian diet? There are a lot of opinions online, and I can't get enough clarity. Thanks!
