Hi guys
Each time I take a B12 supplement it seems to cause diarrhea with me. Very unpleasant. I'm trying to supplement with a tablet as it's quite hard to get the B12 from just fortified foods alone with b12 added in. It seems I have anemia, and I would like to correct it. (By the way, if anyone reads this who isn't vegan.. I didn't get anemia due to a vegan diet, I got anemia because I suffer selective eating disorder.)
I hear that b12 form (Cyanocobalamin) Cyanide form of B12, can cause diarrhea. Anyone got any experience with this? I know there's methylcobalamin, but it scares me slightly that Id react to the cyanocobalamin and perhaps may get an even worse response to the methyl form.
The crazy thing about it is, when I eat fortified foods, they always contain cyanocobalamin don't they? Yet.. no problems.
