About this event

This is a recording of our live webinar and Q&A Session.

With guest speaker Dr. Willemina Rietsema

This thought-provoking event will explore, and explain:

  • why Vitamin B12 deficiency is common, but so often missed, in patients with mental health problems (even when ‘classic’ neurological symptoms may be present)

  • what’s at stake when it does go undetected – and crucially

  • what can be done to improve the current situation.

Vitamin B12 deficiency is more common - and more misunderstood - than you might think. Many individuals believe (and/or fear) that in themselves or a loved one:

  •  their ‘brain fog’, attention and memory problems reflect a condition like ADHD, depression or dementia.

  • or that their anxiety, mood swings, and/or erratic behaviour are signs of autism, bipolar disorder or schizophrenia.

  • or that their worsening fatigue, clumsiness or sensory problems are the result of a neurological disease.

And most don’t know that all of these symptoms can be caused - or exacerbated - by vitamin B12 deficiency.

Unfortunately, many people are currently misdiagnosed with these or other mental health conditions, because their B12 deficiency is missed.

Even worse, if an untreated deficiency is severe, and also goes undiscovered for too long, it can sometimes cause irreversible sensory, motor or cognitive problems (or even death).
