Abstract

There has been increasing interest in vegetarian lifestyle as people are more aware of the benefits of being a vegetarian. However, vegetarian diet could cause some disadvantages, one of which is vitamins deficiency. Vitamin B₁₂ can only be found naturally in animals, thus vitamin B₁₂ deficiency is likely to be prevalent among vegetarians. This study aimed to examine the relationship between vitamin B₁₂ intake with haemoglobin levels in vegetarians. Seventy-four vegetarians at the Maitreya Dutamas Vihara took part in the study in February 2020. Data were collected by filling out Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire and having haemoglobin levels checked with Hb meter . This study is an analytical study with a cross sectional approach. The study found that most of the respondents (85.1%) did not have anaemia. The respondents (60.8%) had adequate vitamin B₁₂ intake and most of the respondents (39.2%) did not take vitamin B₁₂ supplementation. It can be concluded that there is no significant relationship between vitamin B₁₂ intake and anemia (P = 0.057) in vegetarians at Dutamas Vihara.
