Feeling Low? Find Out if it Could be a Vitamin Deficiency [Quiz]

If a lack of energy is plaguing you, it’s natural to consider the source. Many times, we feel tired because we slept horribly for weeks, or we can’t seem to catch a break. Feeling tired can even leave us feeling tired. Who has the energy to find the source? Well, a doctor will be the one qualified to confirm for sure, but if you’re looking for an idea, take the quiz.

Common Signs of Vitamin Deficiencies

A lack of vitamins such as magnesium, potassium, vitamin B12, and folic acid can all cause fatigue, and eventually, other problems. The most common vitamin deficiencies that will show other signs besides feeling tired and exhausted are as follows:

1. Magnesium: Depression, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, asthma, and restless leg syndrome.
2. Potassium: Digestive issues, numbing or tingling, constipation, and difficulty breathing.
3. Vitamin B12: Pale skin, digestive issues, vision loss, numbness, depression, behavioral changes, difficulty breathing, heart palpitations, lightheadedness.
4. Folic Acid: Tingling sensations, burning, difficulty breathing, headache, dizziness, depression, confusion, pale skin.

The mutual presence of these symptoms, along with fatigue, might indicate that a vitamin deficiency could be the source. Speaking with your physician is how to know for sure. You will need a blood test.

If you’ve got a vitamin deficiency, don’t panic. They are somewhat universal and can be treated for the most part with dietary supplements.
