Can Vitamin B-12 Improve Memory In Alzheimer’S Disease?
Answer From Jonathan Graff-Radford, M.D. Vitamin B-12 deficiency — most common in older adults and vegetarians — can cause various signs and symptoms, including memory loss. Some studies suggest low vitamin B-12 levels may be associated with an increased risk of dementia.
Vitamin B-12 is found naturally in foods that come from animals, including fish, meat and poultry. Many breakfast cereals are fortified with vitamin B-12. If you’re concerned that you’re not getting enough vitamin B-12 or other specific nutrients, consult your doctor — especially if you’re an older adult or a vegetarian.
