B12 question

[kendra]

I've heard that B12 is hard to absorb, is there anything that makes it easier for the body to take in? My roommate had low B12 levels and is trying the pills first, if that doesn't work he is going to go to injections so anything that would make the pills absorb better would be good to avoid that.

Don't know if there is anything that anyone knows of but thought I'd throw it out there!

I don't know. Recently I had low B12 level so my Dr prescribed me some vitamins pill but it worked for me, now they are normal.

I had the same problem when I was a vegetarian for 7 years. I tried the liquid vitamins, but in the end I had to start eating meat again. Good excuse for a Mcdonalds burger though! That is the one thing I miss.

Ok cool, I'd heard the pills didn't work well but maybe I'm getting my vitamins mixed up (I do it often enough!). He's doing the sublingual stuff now so hopefully that helps, and I like the McDonalds idea hehe
