But, if you're vegetarian you can get B12 from the sources listed above, including fortified rice or soya milk, yeast flakes, or fortified cereals etc. If you are looking for a supplement, I would recommend that you ask in your local health food store, they will be able to advise on a suitable one. An all-round multivitamin, containing B12, may be a good option. The Vegsoc recommend a B12 RNI of 1.5ug/day, so check out the label to find out what level your supplement has before you purchase. Hope this helps. Best wishes! Hi Jeda – Vitamin B12 is almost exclusively found in animal products.
