Vitamin B12 Diet: Here we are telling you about a special thing to be eaten in breakfast, which even vegetarian people can include in their diet and overcome the deficiency of Vitamin B12 in the body.

Breakfast for Vitamin B12: Due to today's busy life and changing eating habits, the lack of essential nutrients in the body is becoming common. One of these very important nutrients is Vitamin B12. Due to the lack of this nutrient in the body, a person feels weakness and fatigue. Apart from this, the risk of problems like not being able to focus on work, weak memory and even depression also increases. Now, since Vitamin B12 is mainly found in non-veg foods, its deficiency is especially seen in vegetarian people. To overcome this deficiency, people are often forced to take expensive supplements. However, here we are telling you about one such special thing, which even vegetarian people can include in their diet to overcome the deficiency of Vitamin B12 in the body. Let's know about it in detail-

What is this special thing?

Actually, we are talking about Poha here. Poha is made for breakfast in almost every Indian household. It is also very beneficial for health. However, very few people know that if Poha is made with a little smart twist, then it can also be helpful in fulfilling the deficiency of Vitamin B12 in your body. 

How do we get Vitamin B12 by eating Poha?

Let us tell you that poha itself is not a natural source of vitamin B12. However, FSSAI (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India) has been promoting fortification for some time now. Fortification means adding many essential nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, to food items. This process is done to increase the amount of nutrients in food and improve their nutritional quality. 

In this context, fortified poha is also available in the market today, in which nutrients like vitamin B12, iron and folic acid are added. However, it is important to pay attention to the label while buying such poha. Buy it only if the packet of poha has the sign of F+ and FSSAI.

Make Poha like this for Vitamin B12

• You can add paneer and green vegetables to fortified poha. Paneer contains a good amount of vitamin B12.
• Apart from this, you can make poha and eat it with curd or buttermilk. Curd and buttermilk are also excellent sources of vitamin B12. The probiotics present in curd help the body to absorb B12.

In such a situation, if vegetarian people take such a smart breakfast every day, then it can help in removing the deficiency of Vitamin B12 in a natural way without expensive supplements.
