The 10 Best Foods Rich in Vitamin B12, According to a Doctor and Dietitian

Summary: Vitamin B12 is a powerhouse nutrient that keeps your brain sharp, your nerves healthy, and your energy levels up. Since your body can't make it on its own, you have to get it from food. Top choices include salmon, eggs, lean beef, and dairy. If you eat a plant-based diet, look for fortified cereals, plant milks, or nutritional yeast (often called vegan Parmesan).

Getting enough B12 is especially important for vegans, vegetarians, and adults over 50, since our bodies have a harder time absorbing it as we get older. If you are running low, you might feel tired, weak, or even get a tingling feeling in your hands and feet.
