Understanding the cause of your acne can also provide reassurance and reduce anxiety
One major study found that 39% of the general population had borderline or deficient B12 levels, with no significant difference between meat-eaters and vegetarians suggesting that how well your body absorbs B12 matters as much as how much you consume
