Vitamin B12 is one of the eight B vitamins. It’s an essential vitamin that plays a role in supporting energy release, your immune system and your psychological function. It’s found naturally in animal products and some fortified foods.
Table of contents
Adults (aged 19 to 64) need about 1.5 micrograms a day of vitamin B12 which is 100% NRV.
NRV stands for nutritional reference value.
Like all B vitamins, vitamin B12 is water-soluble. This means that it cannot be stored in your body, so you need to replenish it regularly. You should be able to get all the vitamin B12 you need from a healthy and balanced diet.
Vegan or vegetarian sources of vitamin B12 are typically in the form of fortified foods (foods that have added vitamins), like certain breakfast cereals.
Berocca also contains vitamin B12, and it's absolutely fine to glug down a Berocca every day – in fact, we recommend it!
