Often our mood changes and slower mental perception are attributed to aging but they may be the first symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency. B12 nourishes our myelin sheaths that protects the nerves. A B12 deficiency can lead to issues with reflexes, sensory perceptions and even alter how you walk and talk. Nerve and spinal degeneration bring about symptoms such as tingling/shooting pains, particularly in the lower body. Its not uncommon to see restless leg syndrome.
