Vitamin B12 deficiency, also known as cobalamin deficiency, is the medical condition in which the blood and tissue have a lower than normal level of vitamin B12.[5] Symptoms can vary from none to severe.[1] Mild deficiency may have few or absent symptoms.[1] In moderate deficiency, feeling tired, anemia, soreness of the tongue, mouth ulcers, breathlessness, feeling faint, rapid heartbeat, low blood pressure, pallor, hair loss, decreased ability to think and severe joint pain and the beginning of neurological symptoms, including abnormal sensations such as pins and needles, numbness and tinnitus may occur.[1] Severe deficiency may include symptoms of reduced heart function as well as more severe neurological symptoms, including changes in reflexes, poor muscle function, memory problems, blurred vision, irritability, ataxia, decreased taste and smell, decreased level of consciousness, depression, anxiety, guilt and psychosis.[1] If left untreated, some of these changes can become permanent.[1][6] Temporary infertility reversible with treatment, may occur.[1][7] In exclusively breastfed infants of vegan mothers, undetected and untreated deficiency can lead to poor growth, poor development, and difficulties with movement.[2]

Causes are usually related to conditions that give rise to malabsorption of vitamin B12 particularly autoimmune gastritis in pernicious anemia.[8] Other conditions giving rise to malabsorption include surgical removal of the stomach, chronic inflammation of the pancreas, intestinal parasites, certain medications such as long-term use of proton pump inhibitors, H2-receptor blockers, and metformin, and some genetic disorders.[1][9] Deficiency can also be caused by inadequate dietary intake such as with the diets of vegetarians, and vegans, and in the malnourished.[1][10] Deficiency may be caused by increased needs of the body for example in those with HIV/AIDS, and shortened red blood cell lifespan.[1] Diagnosis is typically based on blood levels of vitamin B12 below 150–180 pmol/L (200 to 250 pg/mL) in adults.[2] A false high or normal assay may be observed.[11] Elevated methylmalonic acid levels may also indicate a deficiency.[2] A type of anemia known as megaloblastic anemia is often but not always present.[2] Individuals with low or marginal values of vitamin B12 in the range of 148–221 pmol/L (200–300 pg/mL) may not have classic neurological or hematological signs or symptoms.[2]

Treatment is by vitamin B12 supplementation, either by mouth or by injection.[3] Initially in high daily doses, followed by less frequent lower doses, as the condition improves.[3] If a reversible cause is found, that cause should be corrected if possible.[12] If no reversible cause is found, or when found it cannot be eliminated, lifelong vitamin B12 administration is usually recommended.[13] A nasal spray is also available.[2] Vitamin B12 deficiency is preventable with supplements, which are recommended for pregnant vegetarians and vegans, and not harmful in others.[2] Risk of toxicity due to vitamin B12 is low.[2]

Vitamin B12 deficiency in the US and the UK is estimated to occur in about 6 percent of those under the age of 60, and 20 percent of those over the age of 60.[4] In Latin America, about 40 percent are estimated to be affected, and this may be as high as 80 percent in parts of Africa and Asia.[1] Marginal deficiency is much more common and may occur in up to 40% of Western populations.[2]

Discover the top 8 vitamins that can help stop and prevent joint pain and explore the science behind these findings to provide you with a deeper understanding of how these vitamins work to promote joint health.

Top 8 Vitamins to Stop Joint Pain

8. Vitamin A

Cartilage is a vital component of our joints, acting as a cushion that protects the bones from damage during movement. It’s crucial to maintain its health to prevent joint pain and stiffness.

One nutrient that plays a crucial role in cartilage health is vitamin A.

Vitamin A is a group of related nutrients known as retinoids. Beta-carotene is the most well-known retinoid, and it gives carrots their vibrant orange color.

Retinol, the most active form of vitamin A, is found in animal products such as liver, egg yolks, and dairy products.

7. Vitamin C

Vitamin C is known for its immune-boosting properties, but did you know that it’s also a superhero for joint pain?

This powerful nutrient is essential for collagen production, the primary protein found in our connective tissues, which provides strength, flexibility, and support to joints.

Collagen is not only crucial for maintaining healthy skin but plays a similar role throughout the body.

Vitamin C’s role in collagen synthesis has been linked to combating joint diseases such as osteoarthritis, which involves cartilage degeneration and chronic joint pain.

6. Vitamin D

Vitamin D, also known as the “Sunshine Vitamin,” is well-known for its role in maintaining bone health.

However, it’s also a powerful ally in the fight against joint pain. Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system, which can reduce inflammation and ease joint pain.

While there isn’t an abundance of research on vitamin D and joint health, the studies that do exist show promising results.

5. Omega-3

Omega-3 fatty acids, while not technically a vitamin, deserve an honorable mention when it comes to joint health.

These healthy fats have potent anti-inflammatory properties that reduce joint pain and stiffness, making them a vital component in any joint health regimen.

Numerous studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids can have a significant impact on joint health and inflammation in general.

4. Vitamin K

Vitamin K is an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in blood clotting and keeps our bones strong by regulating calcium.

While it may not be as well-known as other nutrients, recent research has uncovered groundbreaking information about the incredible benefits of vitamin K for joint health.

3. B Vitamins

The B Vitamins are a family of essential nutrients that play a crucial role in maintaining our overall health.

But when it comes to joint pain, two of the most important B Vitamins for diabetics are B6 and B12.

Vitamin B6, also known as pyridoxine, has anti-inflammatory properties that can reduce joint pain.

This vitamin is also important because it can help prevent diabetes-related nerve damage.

2. Vitamin E

Now, let’s dive deeper into the benefits of vitamin E for joint health and beyond.

As an antioxidant, vitamin E is crucial for maintaining cellular health and preventing oxidative stress, which is linked to a host of chronic conditions such as arthritis, heart disease, and cancer.

When it comes to joint health, oxidative stress is a major contributor to inflammation, which can worsen pain and accelerate joint degeneration.

By neutralizing free radicals, vitamin E can help reduce inflammation in joint tissues, potentially easing symptoms and promoting overall joint health.

1. Niacin

Niacin, or Vitamin B3, is a crucial nutrient for maintaining healthy joints and overall well-being.

As mentioned earlier, niacin is essential for the production of collagen, a vital component of cartilage, tendons, and ligaments.

Collagen is essential for maintaining the structure and elasticity of these tissues, and its production is necessary for joint health and mobility.

In addition to supporting collagen production, niacin also has powerful anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce joint pain and swelling.

This makes it a promising natural remedy for people suffering from joint conditions such as osteoarthritis.
