I've had people recommend <a href="http://www.loveseaweed.com/health.html" rel="nofollow">sea vegetables</a> (algae, seaweed) as a method of getting B12. Dulse, kelp, hijiki, arame and other seaweeds supposedly have good levels of B12, although some people argue that it's not easily absorbed by the body. I have started taking a tablet form of B12 once a month, just to be safe. The B12 tablet that I take is Methyl-cobalamin, not cyano-cobalamin, so I don't have to deal with the cyanide issue. Hope that helps! Hi Connie. I've had people recommend sea vegetables (algae, seaweed) as a method of getting B12.

What would be recommended for them other than B12 injections or supplements?
