Description
It mimics the GLP-1 hormone produced in your intestines to regulate blood sugar levels and appetite
This is because many people cant absorb enough B12 from food
Also, people who have had surgery on their intestines, like weight loss surgery, or have diseases that affect the gut, like Crohns disease or celiac disease, are also at risk of not getting enough vitamin B12
More specialised tests such as active B12 (holotranscobalamin) or methylmalonic acid may be available through specialist referral, though availability varies across the UK
