What happens if my body doesn't get enough B Vitamins?
user
If your body doesn't get enough of the vitamins it needs to convert foods into energy, your metabolism will slow down and you will gain weight. This is called "being vitamin deficient" or "vitamin deficiency." You might also feel tired, lethargic or depressed. If this continues you could develop more severe symptoms like dry skin, hair loss, muscle weakness, irritability, poor memory, numbness in fingers and toes, slow wound healing and scaly skin, depression, bone loss, mood changes, and brittle bones and teeth. In some cases, it could even lead to heart failure.
