People who opt for going vegetarians should think for a while. A new Indian study on the eve of World Heart Day on September 26, suggests that Indian vegetarians are deficient in vitamin B12, which causes developing heart ailments.

    Well, the study was conducted in Mumbai, on patients of 1 hospital on 300 patients. Wonder how that can be representative of the entire indian population. What about the medications they were on, do some of them cause depletion of B12?

    Finally there is remarkable difference between vegan and vegetarian. Those who consume dairy get more than their fair share of B12.

    So people who dont like meat or non vegetarian food, all is not lost for you.
