I have been facing issues of brain fog, while studying and other analytical activities. I doubt I am having insufficiency of vitb12 in my body as per the symptoms. Could you please suggest some medicines and dietary foods? I should take.

Weakness might not be only b12 deficiency, but could be a plethora of problems. However, since the concern is about b12 let me explain, vit b12 deficiency is a common presentation in patients who have a strict vegetarian diet. Also gastrointestinal problems causing decreased b12 absorption can cause b12 deficiency. Its deficiency can cause neuropathy and anaemia. So diet includes non vegetarian diet. But, if it is restricted then b12 supplements. There are a series of test to diagnose the causes of weakness along with clinical signs which infer b12 deficiency. It is better you take vit b complex supplements.
