B12 levels are associated with brain functions that can diminish if you do not supply your body with enough B12. If the levels drop then the brain might shrink causing dementia & Alzheimer's.

Hi, I have severe dark circles. I have tried retinol but it did not have much effect. My mother also has this problem but mine is more prominent. I do a computer job which worsens the situation. The dark circles are brown in color. Which tests should I undergo before taking any vitamin supplements?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I recently received my Vitamin B12 test report, and the result is 113 pg per mL, which is quite low. I had this test done because I have been feeling low on energy for a long time.
