Many people and pets are deficient in Vitamin B12 (even if taking it as a supplement or injection)

Vitamin B12 deficiency happens when your body is either not getting enough or not absorbing enough vitamin B12 due Inadequate stomach acid HCL or   medications that cause decreased stomach acid.

A much more common cause of B12 deficiency, especially in older people, is a lack of stomach acid, HCL .. because stomach acid is needed to liberate vitamin B12 from food or supplements.

Vitamin B12 deficiency anemia happens when your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells because you have a vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 is needed to make red blood cells. Because of this, a lack of vitamin B12 can cause anemia.

People and Pets can have a vitamin B12 deficiency without having anemia.

• Gastritis: Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining, and it’s a common cause of vitamin B12 deficiency. It can cause vitamin B12 deficiency due to a lack of hydrochloric acid in your stomach, which is needed for vitamin B12 absorption.
• Pernicious anemia: People who have pernicious anemia — a rare medical condition — aren't able to make intrinsic factor, a protein made by your stomach. You need intrinsic factor so that your body can absorb B12 vitamin. People with pernicious anemia have a B12 vitamin deficiency.
• Digestive diseases: Diseases that affect the digestive system, like Crohn’s disease and celiac disease, can prevent your body from fully absorbing vitamin B12.
• Surgery: People who have gastrointestinal surgery — like a gastric bypass (weight loss surgery) — can have difficulty absorbing vitamin B12.
• Transcobalamin II deficiency: This is a rare genetic disorder that impairs the transport of vitamin B12 (also known as cobalamin) within the body.
