125: Metformin B12 Deficiency


Listen Later

Metformin is one of the most commonly prescribed medications for type 2 diabetes and prediabetes, but did you know it can increase the risk of vitamin B12 deficiency? In this episode, Dr Jedha explains why this happens, the symptoms to watch for, and when it's worth talking to your doctor about a simple vitamin B12 blood test.

You'll also hear two inspiring member stories showing how sustainable nutrition and lifestyle changes helped improve blood sugar, lower A1c, and avoid or stop medication. Whether you're taking metformin or simply want to better understand your treatment options, this episode provides practical, evidence-based insights to help you make informed decisions about your diabetes health.
