How to Supplement Vitamin B with Limited Whole Grains Intake
Vitamin B should primarily be obtained through diet, and whole grains, legumes, and meat are rich sources. Deficiency when the symptoms are not obvious (e.g., fatigue or insomnia) can be assessed through dietary habits: people who regularly consume refined rice and white flour are prone to deficiency. It is recommended to replace daily staple foods with whole grains (e.g., whole wheat, corn), avoid tea/coffee post-meal to prevent interference with absorption and choose supplements if the diet does not meet the standard. Due to their water-soluble nature, overdose is unlikely. The entire family should ensure adequate intake and a combination of coarse grains can meet the demand.
