Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that is required for proper red blood cell formation, neurological function, synthesis of DNA and melatonin, and production of the essential amino acid methionine for cell metabolism. The vitamin is bound to protein and, after ingestion, it is released by gastric acids and proteolytic enzymes in the stomach. Dietary intake sources of vitamin B12 are primarily from animal proteins, such as meat, eggs, poultry, fish and milk, but it can also be obtained from vitamin-fortified cereals and some nutritional yeast products. Deficiencies for this vitamin are determined by blood serum testing. Older adults with pernicious anemia, those with reduced stomach acids or intestinal disorders, people who have trouble sleeping (due to melatonin deficiency), and strict vegetarians can exhibit deficiencies for this vitamin. http://dietary-supplements.info.nih.gov/factsheets/vitaminb12.asp
