How can we fulfil the requirement of Vitamin B 12?

Do not worry, your body’s requirement for vitamin B12 can be easily fulfilled on Satvic Diet. 

Let’s understand what Vitamin B12 is-

If you pull a carrot out of the ground, there would be little bits of dirt and millions of microscopic organisms all over that carrot. That's B12. It is basically bacteria poop. It is present on the surface of root vegetables like carrots, potatoes, beetroots, etc. If you wash and peel that carrot, enough B12 is still present in it.

Include root vegetables in your diet (except onion and garlic). If you consume a balanced diet with all vegetables which will include root vegetables also, your body will get all the nutrition and you won't need to worry about B12 or any vitamin deficiency. 

The question is not what to take for B12, but what to stop consuming which might be leeching it from your body. Stuff like coffee, tea, energy drinks, sugar.
