B12 Deficiency common or not in redheads

@leezah Hello. Yes, that is an interesting question. I'd have to agree with @mpeters findings that hair color is most likely not relevant to vitamin B12 deficiency. Here is more information from the Mayo Clinic:
My cause of B12 deficiency was never pinpointed. I had symptoms of fatigue, irregular heartbeat, dizziness, numbness and tingling in hands and feet. Once discovered, I began B12 injections every two weeks for six months. After my B12 level began to regulate, I took oral supplements for a couple of years and now I take none. I do however make sure to eat a proper diet and get B12 naturally.
What steps are you taking to regulate your B12 deficiency? How are feeling presently?

Thank you for sharing. I’m glad your treatments are working for you. I am on a special diet to strengthen my red blood cell. Eating at least 2-4 oz of clean meat daily. I also having been taking B12injections 1x a week and now my doctor is recommending 2x a week. It’s helping a lot but I have along way to go. I have a typical deficient looking tongue and it’s also effecting my speech.
