In today’s run -of -the -mill life, people are giving more attention to junk food and oily things instead of healthy diet.
The result of this is the lack of essential vitamins in the body, especially vitamin B12. Its deficiency gradually starts hollowing out the body from inside.
Do you know that this one vitamin deficiency can cause serious problems like white stains, skin pigmentation, and hair loss?

Let us know, the deficiency of vitamin B12 can harm your body and how can it be avoided.

❗ Problems due to deficiency of vitamin B12
⚪ white stain (vitiligo)
If white stains are being made on your body, especially on the hands, feet, neck or face – then it can be a sign of vitamin B12 deficiency.
Vitiligo occurs when the level of melanin in the body decreases, causing skin color to fly.

🟤 hyperpigmentation
If more stains or black patches are seen on your skin, it can be a hyperpigmentation.
This problem occurs when the amount of melanin in the skin increases. One reason for this may also be deficient in vitamin B12.
Staying in excess sunlight and aging can spoil this situation further.

💇 Hair loss
Rapid hair fall, breakage or fall is just not the fault of shampoo.
If you are seeing that hair growth has stopped or is falling too much, then it may be a sign of B12 deficiency.
This vitamin nourishes hair roots and helps in growing new hair.

🛡 What to do to rescue?
Include in the diet: milk, curd, egg, fish, meat and green leafy vegetables
