Recent studies have shown a strong association between plasma B12 concentrations and dairy, egg, meat, and seafood intake. These data also suggested that there are differences in the relative bioavailability of B12 from these different sources.
The aim of the study is to determine vitamin B12 bioavailability from egg and compare it to standard supplement.
