Many people can become B12 deficient within the UK, this deficeny is commonly seen in people over 50 years of age, as their gut can sometimes struggle  to absorb B12. People following a strict vegan or vegetarian diet also suffer with B12 deficiency due to the factB12 comes from animal products, B12 supplements are recommended for people who eat a vegan diet or a vegetarian one with few eggs and dairy products. Pregnant women can sometimes find their B12 levels tend to dip during pregnancy and return to normal after delivery. A prenatal vitamin should include B12, but since it is a key nutrient during pregnancy (contributing to fetal development, among other things), pregnant women who are vegan or have another reason to suspect a deficiency should talk to their doctor.
