Blood Test - Fatigue B12

Problem: A vitamin B12 deficiency and an iron deficiency can both lead to fatigue and weakness. Vitamin B12 is essential for the production of red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout our bodies. A vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to a form of anemia known as pernicious anemia. This can cause symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, dizziness and shortness of breath.

Iron is also needed for the production of red blood cells. Iron deficiency can lead to anemia, which means there are not enough red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout our bodies. This can also cause symptoms such as fatigue, weakness and dizziness.

It's important to keep your vitamin B12 and iron levels at healthy levels, as deficiencies in these nutrients can lead to fatigue and weakness, as well as other long-term health problems.
