How Do You Get Your B12?

VeggieLover

I’m still working on eliminating meat from my diet, but I was wondering what others are doing to make sure they don’t develop a B12 deficiency as vegetarians. I see that some fish, like sardines and tuna, are good sources of B12, so I think I’ll keep fish in my diet. I also see that eating fortified cereal is a good way to get B12. Do you all eat certain foods to get your B12 or do you supplement with a daily vitamin?

VeggieLover if you keep fish in your diet, that makes you a pescatarian, not a full vegetarian 😁

I try to eat yogurt everyday. It’s a good source of B12 and makes a great snack. I also like to use nutritional yeast in a lot of my dishes. It adds a nice flavor. It’s really good on popcorn!

I usually supplement or there’s eggs, yogurt as HollyAnne has mentioned.

Though yes I agree with phenomlab by definition that’s a pescatarian diet, there’s definitely other ways to source B12! 🙂

I’m not going to lie, I still eat fish. I didn’t realize that there were so many types of vegetarian lifestyles.
I eat yogurt and eggs too. What fruits are high in B12?
